Ha! Timing is everything. What a weird time to review it. The day of the M3/4 launch!

Perfect timing, I reckon.
"Oh, you'd like an M2 CS? Sorry, none left and they're a beaut car. Did you see the review? Well, step this way because we have these spanking next gen M3/M4s — shiny, modern....Buy that instead!"
Well, that's how I'd play it 🙄

That's exactly what happened to me 😂

lol

I asked my friend (the exec's brother) and the response I got (after 2 weeks) is what I gave you.

I'm smart enough to know how far I can push a friendship and I know the guy is far too busy to give me those kinds of detailed information ( ... believe me, because I tried that to begin with lol)

When you are next in Melbourne, invite brother to Vlado's. No one can resist an invite to Vlado's. Take along 3 bottles of SA's finest. We can supply various questions for you to casually slip in after bottle 2. You can begin them with "So...".

now I'm intrigued ... do I take three bottles from my list of favorites or theirs?

You do realise we make some top notch stuff so choosing will be difficult

We have a “Demo”, first one to date in Australia on the used market. Port Macquarie NSW.

RednekM2 · 03-12-2021, 02:42 AM

Interesting! Let's see how long it lasts.

Alpine* · 03-12-2021, 02:48 AM

I’d say NO ONE thought to ring around to find a car lol so they demoed it, or maybe just Dealer Principal, I’ll drive that lol

Alpine* · 03-12-2021, 02:49 AM

I give it a week.

It's including taxes and on-roads, so I'd say that's pretty close to new price drive away.

Agree

But if you want MANUAL, then someone needs to rock it, with a low baller offer.

Beenz · 03-12-2021, 04:44 AM

That’s straight up RRP.
Dealers don’t want to talk to each other so if your local doesn’t have the stock they will insist there aren’t any.
Still, first one actually listed on Carsales so interesting nonetheless. And BSM looks pretty goood

Not a lot. I'd say that's a pretty good price.

Weird one on many levels.

Average age in Port Macquarie, around 100. Possibly the highest Camry to human ratio in the developed world.

Personalised Semen plates that won't be supplied.

Only driven around the block a few times.

Manual.

Registered this month.

The answers are out there.

To my best knowledge, dealers weren't allowed to demo these as BMW Australia did not offer any incentives.

I speculate, the DP could have registered it for a little personal fun and now offloading as a dealer demo (except the only person who got to drive it for a demo was the DP).

@$160k driveway, not only is it not a cheap car, in fact it's over RRP (RRP = $140,900 for a BSM, 6MT, 2NH + say around $12k for on-roads and our still only comes to $153k) - there is no dealer delivery with a used car so this baby is going for RRP + $6K and who really knows how it was driven

and they don't even know what they're selling! All inclusions would suggest CCB and DCT; this car has neither

Alpine* · 03-12-2021, 11:24 PM

The CS @ Port Mac is now disappeared from Carsales.

M2 CS JDG · 03-13-2021, 05:42 AM

Picked it up this morning guys.

Are the M2 seat logo lights meant to stay on all the time even when driving?

Mine seem to only turn on when I first get in the car then turn off when I start driving
