If they start discounting like that right out the door, that would likely lead to a poor resale for the 2 series. Was it the same with the 1 series?

Coming up with that figure based on the fact I refuse to pay sticker or near it on anything that isn't limited production and instantly collectible (e.g. Boss 302 etc). I'm not going to walk into BMW and pay $40k for a 228i, I'll pay absolutely no more than $38k and if they won't take it, I won't buy one. It may be a new model, but it isn't limited production, nor is it special; it's just a run of the mill car. I don't think $2k-$3k is ridiculous at all on 40 grand, it's not like I'm asking for $7k-$8k off. Will they take that in May? Probably not but we will see. If not I won't be waiting a year to order, I'll be going to Ford and picking up a new Mustang GT for much more than $3k off.
I don't need to buy a car, but BMW needs to sell one.
