Re: California M5's, yes my local dealer is asking $19,998 as "Market Adjustment" over MSRP for a 2002 M5. The sales guy I spoke with immediatly dropped it to $6,000 without me even asking. I didn't have the heart to tell him that I have an M5 on order from another local dealer at MSRP. So my point is it doesn't matter what dealers are asking because ultimately the buyer is the one who determines the car's worth. I will not pay a penny more than MSRP out of principle and I was lucky to find a dealer who was willing to sell me one at MSRP.


I 've dealt w/ BMW of Eugene (formerly Centannial Imports)on our bimmers. If memory serves me corrct, the silver M5 is the 3rd M5 they received from BMW since the inception of M5. The bottomline is, if you don't want to pay for the car at MSRP, then someone else will.

BTW, just so you know, most California and WA dealers and asking as high as $15,000 over MSRP. Walking out of a dealer w/ a new M5 for $75,000 is un-heard of in your neighboring state. Most people walk out w/ $80,000 to $95,000 (Mark-up, tax, license, etc.)

Trust me, that car won't be there for long, not after you annouced it here.

Just noticed a SILVER 2002 M5 available in Eugene, Or. Is that a special car or something? They were asking MSRP. I have never paid that for a car. I was told by a friend to visit bimmer.org I need some feedback. I really like the car.
