Just ordered my 2014 M5 in AW with CP and B&O!

PRKELLY · 02-07-2018, 01:07 PM

I have been in a veritable hell the past week. I placed a hold on a car at Carmax which is spec'd exactly how I wanted one, Alpine White, Black extended merino interior, B&O sound and comp pack. Long story short, my sales guy made a huge mistake and the car got transfered to another store by another buyer! All was lost!

I was told that the car sold and I was incredibly disappointed to say the least.

I called the store and found out it had not been sold but was being transferred to another store with a potential buyer. I decided to stay on it and got a few people at CM on my side and as of yesterday it was still on hold and I was told that the buyer was quite serious and had his financing in place so it was likely gone.

Get the call today from my NEW sales consultant who is super excited to tell me that the buyers wife said HELL NO!!!! Car is in my name and being transferred here to Richmond Va for my purchase!!!!!

Am I stoked??? YES I AM!!!!

Pics to come!

I only have the pics from the dealer to drool over for the next couple of weeks until it arrives.

Once it gets here, straight to my detailer for a proper clean up and ceramic coating, then a photographer I know will have a day of shooting it! Pics then!

Got a link for the car? Let's see it!

bquicksilver · 02-07-2018, 11:42 PM

I like your taste! Mine arrived last month. You'll love it. Time for some warm weather now.

Not sure if this will work or not but here!

Oh, and before the questions start on what I paid, it's $49,998.00 plus taxes, tags and the CNA warranty which will cover pretty much the entire car up to 125K miles of 5 years ownership which will bring the total to just under $60K.

I think I killed it on the pricing!

PRKELLY · 02-08-2018, 08:05 AM

First mod will be black grills with out the chrome surround. Might need to figure out how to do body color on the door handles too, not big on the chrome strip.

Wrong. First mod would be to take that stupid CarMax decal of the trunk

Had that in my E60 M5, loved it. I may eventually change this out but Im just going to enjoy the car for now.

atown88 · 02-08-2018, 02:23 PM

Congrats! I've been looking for this a build like this for the last week. Do you mind sharing with how much you were able to pick it up for? I'm trying to determine if the last crop of AW '14's with Comp pack are worth what they're listing for.

Have the door handle inserts wrapped; easy and inexpensive.

Flying Ace · 02-08-2018, 10:39 PM

I just called CarMax and offered them $50,000. They said yes.

Ask them to remove it before you take delivery so that you don't have to worry about it.

Congrats !!!
