So much for the huge M3 mark-ups. How about huge discounts.
Sam Swope BMW has two M3 coupes with discounts on Ebay, one $4,500 below msrp and one $5,000 below msrp.

Poor economy, rising gas prices...projected sales not being met...not surprised...it would be smart for a dealer to get a few off the lot and on the road, even if at a lower price than expected. I can honestly say I have yet to see an actual M3 coupe or sedan on the road yet...

Great deals if someone is looking for a M3 coupe.

Yup agree, usually don't see discounts like this until the end of the year, when dealers are trying to clear their lots.

I said when before it came out that the price is way too high and that BMW are mad.
eg for HK pay about 15% more and I can get a M5, so why get a smaller car and smaller engine for only 15% more

I was speaking to a salesperson at BMW of San Francisco and it appears that there is still demand for M3's - just not the manuals as 85% of orders are for the DCT transmission.
