    The custom ordering process

    I'm hoping to be placing an order for my first BMW in a month or so. It'll be a minimally optioned 330i (maaaybe 340i) with manual trans. Modest in the world of BMW's I know, but I'm looking forward to it anyway.
    What Im wondering is, when you do a customer order do rebates apply and/or is there opportunity to negotiate on price? Or are you pretty much locked into the pricing tiers that you get with Build Your Own on the website?
    I know you can get a discount with Euro delivery which I'd love to do but logistically I don't think it's possible for me.

    Negotiation is always possible. Shop several dealers to see which one provides the best price. However, I recommend that you don’t decide on price alone. Other factors such as the the dealer’s reputation, distance and others should be also considered.

    You lose a lot of ability to negotiate by custom ordering. Most rebates/discounts apply to cars sitting on the dealer lots

    But we dont know for sure, nobody does except the dealer(s) you are considering ordering it from, I would go ask them...
