Don't know about the rest of the country; but it was/is still very easy to get an E90/92/93 M3 for $10K off of sticker here in So Cal.

Interesting....the new M3 is a rare bird in my parts and I live in an area where BMWs are like taxi-cabs. The previous gen M3 was all over the place though.

You got me.

There is a $25,000 diff between a 135i Msport and a E92 M3. Its only a matter of time before they fill the price gap.

I swear our local dealership still has the same two BMW's on their lot that they had last April when I went and did the Drive for the Cure.

The current generation M3s are rare in my town but I've seen several M6s and M5s being driven around here.

That is very possible but also remember that most folks that can afford the M3 and want one for what it is order their own in the trim they want.

The M3's the dealerships have on the lot turn into test drive machines or demo's. The only time they usually get bought is when they discount them or some rich guy comes in wanting a new car and the salesmen is good enough to point them in the direction of the M3 they have had sitting on the lot

Not to pour water on the fire or be negative about the M3, but the sedan and convertible just came out right? It will be interesting to see what sales are after the pent up demand for the new styles dissipates.
