I had a local dealer tell me he wouldn't sell one for less than MSRP. I laughed and said you have 4 sitting here, call me when you start dumping them for $15-20k off to get rid of them.
I believe that might be more a reflection of the drivers rather than the cars.

And i'm waiting for one of those fire sales to kick in. Went to my local dealer this weekend and they have 2 M5's, loaded which they are not even budging a penny. I mentioned huge inventory out there and they refused to work something out with me. Oh well, I'm not in a rush.

Dealers in NJ will already drop 8-9k off of one without trying. Some are sitting on 9 M5s and a few M6s.
