- 2018 M2 Manual
Every dealer in Chicagoland has told me they’re 15-20 deep on the wait list and they’re getting 1 allocation a month on avg. Hard to believe there’s that there’s that much interest there in my opinion but whatever. I’m on a few lists but won’t put down a deposit as I don’t need 1k at each dealer floating around right now. Most are selling at roughly msrp though. Most dealers near me have wait lists even for the m3 still. M4s are much more available.The G87 is hard to find? Interesting. Maybe call around, I was told by my local dealer a few weeks ago when I was still interested in the G87 that he didn't think inventory would be a problem, and it wouldn't be hard to find one at MSRP.
It's interesting to me that cars are apparently "available" but preorders haven't been delivered yet. I think these dealers might be yanking your chain. Many dealers will "advertise" cars that they do not have in inventory. That's probably what's happening here.
Supply will be tight and unscrupulous dealers will demand a markup at least until there are readily available cars sitting on lots, that's just the world we live in now. They will be sitting on lots eventually, and I think a lot of these dealers who are "demanding" markups will end up folding in the end.
One dealer sent me pictures of the available unit and I saw the demo in the background as well, not sure about the other one but it looked legit. I’m guessing they were pre delivery orders that fell through? Not sure. I know they’re making these in batches so maybe a few dealers got an extra White/red car in addition to the demo or pre order or something.
I’m happy with my f87 right now so I’m not going to play games and go the ADM route. Regular integras were marked up when they first came out and I’m guessing these will come back down to earth eventually.
