New to BMW. Should I be paying MSRP for a 2024 i7 M70?

[rollingtaser]

have a look at this:

- the EQS center screen lower buttons vs. the i7 lower panel
- the number of functions ans buttons on the steering wheel
- see how you feel in terms of sitting in the car: is it spacious? does it feel open?
- play with the electronics, the satnav, entertainment

do this while NOT driving

This is a really good idea. Sit in the car for a while either before or after you are driving. But also pay attention to how the electronics work (maps, changing temps) while driving. These are things you will use every day.

General Sales Manager or New Car Sales Manager.

I know i7 has $3k in BMW loyalty and $7.5k in EV rebates, good savings right away. Some dealers take 3-5% off MSRP which is a good amount on $180-190k. If you are in LA then pm me Ill give you a contact of a broker who can get you 7-10% off MSRP. I am working on i7 with him and looking at around $1400 lease tax inc.

You're getting to ~$1400 incl tax on an M70? What is the structure of that deal? Seems way too good to be true.

No sorry, $1400 is i7 60x, but M70 would be around $1900-2000.

I received 8% off MSRP at my dealer. Who is offering the 7.5K for EVs, your state? BMW?

BMWFS ... essentially the US government if we want to be accurate. BMWFS gets a $7500 credit on their 1120 for each EV they buy and lease to consumers. They are passing-through 100% of that tax credit to their corporate return to the consumer as a lease credit (Cap cost reduction) as an incentive to lease this car.
