I don't want to bet on it, but I think we have it all in Frankfurt. This city is so multicultural, I don't think there is something you can't get here.

how about NYC, have you ever see what it looks like after 9/11? i work right across the street from the towers, both on that day and still today,

its worth seeing the enormity of it in person especially before they really mess downtown up with that monstrosity they are gonna build

The revised specs for the car is now Silver Gray mettalic, Black interior with the the dark maple wood, Logic 7, Sirius sattelite, Sport,Nav, winter pack and folding rear seats. Chickened out of HUD!
Deal is 813 per month with about 2700 down 36 months 12k /year.
If any one can get a better deal I will revisit my dealer specially now that he's messed up my original order.
That isn't a very good deal. You could get that car for about 750/mo 12k miles, 36 months with $0 down.
I got basically the same car (without sport, but with a few extra options) for 736/mo.

When you say "2700 down" do you mean inception fees only or a cap cost reduction, or both?

This includes all fees and a little cap reduction.
The sport pack costs can add over $ 50 per month (Roughly say $ 28/1000)

The Westchester Tax 6.65 is in the monthly payments as well

don't think so. 550 will not be a big increase. I's replacing 545. So based on German experience 750 vs 545 - it's a 1.6-2K USD increase. It is still a 66K USD car nicely equipped.

M5 will start ar 85K USD plus options plus waiting lists plus dealer mark ups. Anyway you slice it you save 20K +USD and get a pretty close match. (i know it's no cigar), But I bet you there will be many people happy with the low end torque of 550 vs M3 like 8K+ RPM M5
