I tend to agree that $10K over is too much.

I paid less than sticker for mine and it is fully kitted out. There have been many for sale at sticker and below. You are making a pretty fair profit at sticker for this car. Better to have it in the wild with a happy owner singing your praises than on the floor wrecking your floor plan.

Good luck with your decision and sale.

It is amazing on many different levels. It provides a different driving environment and challenge vs. my E63 M6. Like most mid-engined cars it is very easy to point and rotate and since it has AWD, it is extremely forgiving in turns.

It is severely tire limited but still provides a high-performance driving experience.

One of the best parts is that I don't have to fill it up 3x per week like the M6...lol!

$10,000 over MSRP for one without the pure impulse package? Nuts.

In the Sf Bay Area 10k over is a good deal on these. They mostly sell for 25k over. My dealership has two with Pure Impulse that we'll sell for MSRP.

Question: if most sell for over 25k, why in the heck would you sell yours for msrp?

Answer: because they don't sell for 25k over!

We all know talk is talk. Most or not all legitimate buyers are not scrapping together $150k for a car. It's hard to believe 6 are not tire kickers. While these cars are easier to find then they were I cannot imagine the old "I need to think about it". I have been in sales my entire career and "I want to think about it" has less than a 5% close ratio. Houses, cars whatever there are a lot of people out there that get off on the tease.

Our sister store 15 miles away has sold their last two for 15k over. The pervious GM of the store I work at sold was selling them for msrp and our new GM is continuing the trend. There's a lot of money in silicon valley and people are willing to pay the price.

Man...us here in socal have it good compared to you east coasters. Bipolar weather AND mark ups?

Steve Thomas BMW was offering 2 i8s at 2k UNDER msrp!

But the again, were still at 4 dollars a gallon, so it's a fair trade off I suppose.

In all seriousness- OP I hope you guys are able to sell it. Not trying to bash the thread, but it's seriously sad seeing others paying any mark up, when these cars can honestly be had at under msrp now.

It's not. It's MSRP for that car with Pure Impulse and pearl white.
