Not true at all. Most GT3s have buckets. Finding a car with comfort seats is very difficult.

Not in the north east. I've been searching for the last two years and almost all examples have sofas. The few that have LWBs, don't have the front axle lift.

BMW Fresno, CA is sold
Bob Thomas BMW in CA told me this AM "they are trying to decide how much ADM to add"

@kepler
Funny they said you were 1st..

That's exactly what the CA at Kuni told me since my deposit was placed back in November '19 at launch.
Sept 9th when allocations were finally announced, the sleazy car sales tactics made there presence.
5k ADM applied on a handshake deal that left me aggravated but motivated to play their game..

I called a few dealerships in / out of state.

BMW of Portland offered me a spot a 10k ADM - FOH.
Again, after having established a continued communication w/ a sales guy since last November. I told the guy straight out that he had the wrong sucker.

Another a dealer out of state offered me a chance at 2k, ok maybe, but then I have to deal with shipping in winter which has been discussed here - PASS

I made one last in state request online and bingo!
Found a deal at MSRP on their only allocation, that wasn't really even in their system at that point.

After I told Kuni what was up, they lowered their offer to 3k ADM and ask if we could do the deal today..

Kuni, BMW of Portland and any ADM price gouging Stealership can suck it!

Hope you found at MSRP and didn't get jacked.

That’s funny. I only look nationally. When looking at 18’s the vast majority have buckets, sofas are rare. I haven’t looked for a while because they simply never come down in price. A friend bought one with sofas and is very happy with it. Buckets are tough to live with unless you shim the seat bracket and bolster the lumbar.
21 manual 18’s listed across the country. 5 have comfort seats (some 4 ways), the rest have buckets.

Well... I guess that's fortunate I left Portland then.
I've only had bad experiences with Lithia BMW of Portland. They really are only about the bottom line. Never had many dealings with Kuni, but doesn't sound like it's much better.

My dealer and CA here in Austin has been nothing short of amazing. No games. No time wasting. I walked in. Expressed my interest in the M2 CS. Told him if there is ADM, there's no point in wasting yours or my time. He says his dealer doesn't charge ADM. When I put a down payment on it, I actually was not the first in line, but the people ahead of me dropped off the list and I was promptly let known that I was the first a few weeks later. Once allocations came out, discussed financing and got 0.9% in writing. I put my order in. Now, just "patiently" awaiting the car.

My local dealer sucked when I bought my 1M. Service is always good, but I never thought I would buy another car there. The franchise changed hands about 5 years ago and the new owners are much better. They don't do ADM's. I told my CA I was interested in the CS if they got an allocation. No deposit. He called me the day they got their allocation, and I ordered the car the next day.
