MSRP: 67,820
$3500 discount off MSRP
$5,500 financing discount at 3.49% through some credit union I've never heard of (I will probably just pay it off or refinance in a month or two at a lower rate)
Plus about $950 registration stuff
And of course taxes.
I think I could have shaved a little more money off the discount but I didn't have the patience.

This X3 is the most incredible vehicle I've ever owned from both a driving and technology perspective. (Full disclosure: I was driving a 2009 Honda CRV beforehand).
If you were working with BMW Seattle this seems about right.
Ended up purchasing from BMW tri-cities. Seattle and Bellevue were extremely difficult to work with. They wouldn't budge on their first offers and wouldn't always reply in a timely manner even though I made it clear I was ready to purchase today. I refuse to beg someone to take $60,000 from me.

I've bought 3 new cars now from Portland dealerships because no one in Seattle area will play ball. It's ridiculous and highly annoying. I don't have any problem wasting their time going on test drives though if that's all they'll give.

I'm trying out a new X3 M40i in a few days at a local dealership. We'll see how it goes as I am in no rush to buy but I am a real buyer.

So I'll be in the market for one of these in a couple of months and hoping to get a similar deal. I also live in Boston, so wondering what dealer you worked with. I have an established relationship with a specific CA after leasing 5 BMWs through him, so looking to avoid the old back-and-forth.
It's a dealer in PA. Boston dealers don't play ball
Would you mind PMing me which dealer in PA?

Incredible deal man.

Best offer I received was 15% on 64k MSRP 2019 loaner 1,200 miles.

Actually it's weirdly validating to hear you guys say this about Seattle area dealers.

Good to hear I'm not the only one with Seattle BMW dealership issues. I was starting to worry something was wrong with me (not really). I definitely test drove X3s in Seattle/Bellevue before purchasing elsewhere. Will consider them in the future as a good place for testing cars but not to purchase at. May give Portland a go next time.

I live in seattle. The drive home from the tri-cities was a great first test of the X3. Hadn't been out East of the mountains for some time. It's beautiful and peaceful out there.

If you are in the Southeast region, I got a SA to recommend. He is super easy to work with, and tremendous service. PM me if you are looking for a SA in this region.

Anyone on the West Coast order an X3 and know how long it takes after it hits "In Transit" to get to CA?

Who did you work with? I tried to buy an M340i from Brandon Barlow, who was great, but couldn't get better than 4.5% off. Settled at 8% off from BMW Portland on that one.
