It appears with luxury tax, shipping and gas guzzler it will be almost $50k for a base model M3!!!!

Too much for me to blow on one car.... (i can almost have S2000, typhoon, and a souped up 69 bug for that!!!)

Unfortunately, I think I am... I've fallen in love with the S2000 but I've wanted the e46 M3 for quite some time before that. I'll be perfectly content with the M3 for a looong time (he says now) but the price is a stickler.

So, the suggested price is what BMW is going to sell the M3 at, or is there going to be price gouging?

Well I don't know about you but I've got all my contracts (#3/#6) at MSRP!

That being said, spots are selling for mucho deniro over MSRP and/or dealers are already demanding $5k or more (aka Market Price).

OUCH!

Not my style, but i did have #1 wrapped up here in Central PA, but..... i am not one to sell or try to sell spots in line, so i backed out. I would feel like a total jerk selling my spot.

at $52k for a decent M3, i cannot imagine how much more someone would be willing to pay... especially with the market as far south as it is.

Think I saw a #1 spot go for over 10K on E-bay. Could be a bunch of BS. I love beemers but for an additional 20K over my stook......

Not!

Scot, I would've gladly taken your spot without paying to make you feel better..
