The salesman kept saying that we should snap it up for 9k over sticker because he had one guy willing to pay 8K over and another willing to pay 5K over. We laughed and left. A month later we came back...my uncle bought that exact same M3 for $500 under sticker...
yea, she would NOT budge on the mark up at all. I dont see a mark up of over $2k being justifiable unless it comes with something special (TRD parts, body kits, audio systems, etc.). She claims that the car will most likely be sold after this weekend - tried to get her to hold it for me before i knew of the mark up.
