Congrats, heck of a deal. The best offer currently at my dealer is $4000 off a demo 430i with nearly 10,000kms LOL.

They inflate the MSRP and then offer sweet incentives (tons of lease cash, low MF, super high residuals, loyalty cash, etc...). Add them up, and you get to drive a $50k (yeah, right). 3/4 series 4 banger for low $200s.

Used BMW's are extremely cheap, most of which are coming off leases. Most people don't buy them new, they lease then dump.

They also make money on other suckers with no negotiation skills that will lease a 320i for $700/month with $10K down (exaggerating a bit LOL).

Drove a coupe and the GC. The sales rep said they supposedly hadn't sold a new car in 3 days so they were very eager - I said we'll come back next weekend (end of the month) - she said, no need to wait - they really need to sell a car. I don't believe anything a car salesman tells me but they came thru with a great deal.

Anyway, they came up some numbers but were off by what we were willing to pay by a couple thousand. We left but the next day they called my wife the next stay to strike the above deal.

only pic so far...

I'll look at the paperwork again to verify, but yes the $282/mo did included the trade....fixed my original post.

Regardless, that's an amazing deal. Congrats to the wife on a great car.
yeah, that's wrong about the HUD being standard on the 2020 - I thought i read it somewhere but can't find it.

Be sure to provide us with your wife's and your impressions after you've had the GC for a while.

Those are cheap because it's at the end of the life cycle. BMW has been offering big discounts and incentives to move them since the new gen coupe will be here soon. HUD is part of the premium package on the G20. I have it on my car because i have the Premium Package, so it's not standard.

agree with this -- 2021 is the new 4 series.

the $16923 off did NOT include the trade, I believe the $282/mo lease did include trade.

FYI, I don't think they have any additional 2019 430i GC in stock (BMW of the Woodlands).

MSRP was $49500...

Congrats on the getting this deal. You have officially beat dealer demo deals I bump into in my inbox of 20%. I would not be surprised if BMW woodlands stops responding to call and customer emails after the traffic you generated to their dealership with this one lol.

Again enjoy!

Honestly I don't understand the 4 GC, I thought BMW going to odd numbers are 4 door, even are 2 door was the whole idea....so how does the 4 GC follow this? It's just a 3 Series hatchback so why not just call it 3 series GC??
