Turns out that the guy who bought it put down a large down payment over 6 months ago. He picks it up today. The dealer said they may not get another one til next year.
The buyer paid MSRP believe it or not.

Nice! I was at my dealer a few weeks ago and my SA told me they had sold three of them. I was a bit surprised because we are not a large market! Not sure if they have been delivered yet but have yet to see one around town...

still dont know why would some one get this instead of an used e92 M3, or even a 335... :/ This is pretty much a JB 135 with a body kit.

Nope, quite different. It shares a similar rear end as the M3. I believe the gearbox is nearly the same as the M3 manual as well. The suspension geometry is also quite tuned, ( much better than any m-sport ). The engine may also use fully forged internals along with a lower compression ratio ( just speaking from what I've heard about this car )
