I decided on an M240i today. A dealer has offered a 47k MSRP car with a "savings" of $3,200 and a "rebate" of $1,000...

But the thing is, this "savings" is applied to the 47k, and then the sales tax comes into play, and with that plus "fees" the car comes out to a little over 47,000 which means that the discount really means nothing, it just covers sales tax and I still pay MSRP.

Is this a ripoff? When people say a 7% discount is normal, does that mean pre-tax?

What should I expect to pay for a 47k 240i?

Edit: I should add this "deal" was for a 235i left over from 2016.
