So we went on Autotrader this weekend and found a dealer 60 miles away that had a manual 430i order that fell through. While we were on the lot looking at getting a lease, he tells us that he has a new 2018 M240i Performance Edition available...with a manual tranny. The car had been on the lot for so long that we were able to knock off 25% from the list price. Bottom line... We didn't even get into the 430i for a test drive, bought the M240i, drove home with huge grins on our faces and didn't realize that our new baby was only 1 of 75 in the states until later. Call it serendipity.  |
Congratulations on the purchase! I also bought one in March, it's a 2019 M Performance Edition (xdrive + ZF8). The dealership gave me a hell of a deal on it. The funny thing is neither I or my CA knew that it was an M Performance Edition. When I called in for the car, I just kept referring to it as the m240i with the M Package and the CA did the same. It wasn't until after I purchased the car and went home that my cousin and I looked it up and saw it an M Performance Edition. The car definitely turns heads everywhere I go and other BMW enthusiasts always ask about it.
