I found BMW Sydney in Rushcutters were terrible so I took my business to Mosman - they’ve been brilliant.
Sydney BM is a company (BMW) owned dealership, when I was looking to order my car near 3yrs ago (when it was a 10-12month wait for delivery) they wouldn't negotiate and required a $5K non-refundable deposit just to place an order (& you were still 7-8 months till start of production). Their staff were friendly & helpful, I guess just bound by company policy.

Three other Sydney metro dealerships all negotiated to varying degrees and required only $1K refundable deposit for the order. Ended up with North Shore BM (who owns Mosman), had to pay another $2.5K deposit once production started (& I think that was $1K more than normal because of manual trans).

I doubt anyone will find a manual M2C in stock, they only existed (in dealership stock) before in the Pure version but now that the Pure can have DCT no dealer with stock manuals. Ashame really.
