Hey guys, it's my first post here, I've been lurking for a while but figured it might be worth actually asking some questions! I'm currently a senior in college and have a pretty nice job lined up after I graduate this spring, and since I'm car obsessed, I've decided to get a 228i M-Sport.
Ideally, I'd like to do European Delivery and pick it up after I graduate so I can vacation before I join the working world. It'll be my first time buying a car, let alone doing European Delivery, so I've got quite a few questions and issues that I hope some of you guys might be able to resolve! I plan on visiting a dealership soon, but would love it if I could go in with a decent amount of knowledge to back me up.
1. When should I start looking, and where? I'm in the LA area (Will also be working here) so I've got a lot of choice.
2. When should I aim to order? Assuming late May delivery
3. How can I get the best price? This is the one that probably worries me the most, I'm not a particularly good negotiator, and I'm kinda worried I'll get fleeced. I know I can use the college program for 1000 off and the ED discount, but I'm still not sure if that discount applies only to the base car or to options as well. Additionally, would you guys have any tips on how to potentially drive the price down beyond these two discounts/how much wiggle room I can expect? I have a lot of time and don't really care about the dealership I order from, so I'm hoping that'll work to my advantage.
Sorry about the wall of text, hopefully it's coherent and thanks in advance!
