My first M
I took advantage of the insane July residual to get into a M5 yesterday. I live in Dallas and have been going down to BMW of Beaumont (near Houston) since 2008 when I caught the BMW bug. My CA is Sebastian Olszewski who has been awesome over the years - responsive, fair in pricing, and straight up.
My car ended up being one in stock: - Black Sapphire with black interior - Comp package - Exec Package - Driver Assistance Plus - Dealer had VDC add: Performance Exhaust ($7,845), Carbon Fiber Exhaust Tips ($1600), Black Grills MSRP was 129K I got 12% off Base money factor + 7 MSDs 67% residual The car is an animal - my first M car and it will take some getting use to. Feels so raw and visceral coming from a 535. One issue I noticed after delivery was a rattle on the right rear exhaust under certain upshift / downshift conditions. Taking it to my local dealer to take care of on Thursday. Bottom line: thankful for being able to pull this off; my Dad (who is not alive and was a huge car fan) is probably smiling down on his immigrant son, who moved to US with nothing in 1988, driving an M5 today Last edited by wesleyan92; 08-03-2016 at 01:13 PM.. |

Congrats!
Are you sure its Carbon Black(I'm jealous if it is)? I wanted Carbon Black as my E60 M5 was CB. They wanted $5000 for special order paint, I opted for Azurite instead. My car is sitting in Bremerhaven waiting to get on a ship. The wait is killing me. Again,,,,,Congratulations on a gorgeous beast.

Beautiful car and amazing deal!!
We have quite a few Ms in Dallas. You should join us for a cruise on the back roads one weekend. We finished one up last weekend and it was a blast. We will be at Cars and Coffee this Saturday.

To all - thank you for the kind words. If it wasn't for this forum, I would have never found out about the 67% residuals |

No need to be sorry, you have a fantastic M. I was just jealous if it was CB.

Congrats. Where in Dallas do you live? I live in Frisco and I have the same car except Silverstone interior and no PE. What did your payment wind up at? I'm jealous of the 67% residuals you guys got. I thought I was killing it at 64%.
