I checked with 2 Costco’s (ie used 2 zip codes)
Orange County is where I got the good deal. They offered the above deal right off the bat and I figured it was good enough so I didn’t try for any better. South Bay bmw called and said 1000 over invoice plus incentives and I said I’ve already got 500 under and then they promptly matched. I didn’t like how they gave me 2 prices within 5 min so I went with dealer 1.

“Negotiation” took 3 min. Paperwork 15 and I was done. Never met the sales person and order was in the computer within 12h. Build date is 12/18....

That's efficient and how deals should be

Yep - checked. Got this message:

Unfortunately, none of the dealerships in your area meet our strict pricing requirements for the model you selected.

Oh well. I feel like I got a pretty fair deal, especially considering the trade value.

F pace
Stelvio
XC60
Macan
GLC / X3
SQ5
RDX
NX

I'm guessing the RR Velar prices itself out of the group test but that's top of the pack for me in Aesthetics. Agree with your rankings too. New. X3 looks very nice I think and certainly doesn't turn me away from it like the precious generation.

If you’re just looking at MSRPs, I think the M40i is a pretty good deal — it’s an exceptional engine that really changes the experience. But the discounts from msrp may not be equal, and it’s possible that the real price delta is more than 6-7k.

Thank you edcarne. Enjoy. In Canada the for the comparables, I could not see it on paper, perhaps I missed something.
