Ex Demo Offered allready

pi22adough · 06-26-2014, 12:58 PM

Going to have a look on sunday at an M4.
The dealer told me i cant put a deposit on it if i like it and they will hand it over to me in 3 months.they need it till then for demo.
Well i never had an offer as such....
Never bought an ex demo or new car for that matter.
Would you go for one similar or they get trashed a lot during testdrives..?

YES

Given the way I drove the one I tested on Saturday, I probably wouldn't.....

m3ct · 06-26-2014, 01:07 PM

I'm betting it'll get trashed here and there for sure. What kind of discount are you getting?

Or you can order one and get it in three months with 0 miles on it.

Yeah it'll get driven harder than I would feel comfortable with especially before it's properly broken in. You could just order a new one the way you want and have it in the same amount of time.

pi22adough · 06-26-2014, 01:11 PM

Dont know about the discount yet.Im thinking -2k/1000 miles

.it will be status to usage i supose.
But im worried would it get run in proppely cuz i know i will give it all i can on sunday....either buying it or no...

Even if it had just a couple hundred miles in it, you'd have to knock $10k off a demo for me to even begin the discussion of purchasing.

Feeling the same.....
I will see what he says....im in no rush.if i can agree in a rough milage and a healhty discount with that then i might do it.
It will be under warranty anyway..just it might feel as sleeping with a prostirute....not that i know hows that.just a figure of speech

I ordered my new M4 from a pre-order from dealer for his wife!! Was able to change all spec as the car had not quite gone into production.

Delivery is end of July - wohoooo

Mad.

Why waste the next 3 month worrying about this car. Its going to be treated like a hooker on payday for the next 3 months. Just order a new car and get it at the same time.

Yes, unless the price is too good to pass up. (on the car! the price on the car!)

sherm · 06-26-2014, 03:43 PM

For a car like this, I wouldn't buy a demo. It does depend on the dealer though because the dealer I test drove an M3 with told me not to go above 5K RPM so SOME dealers do care about the car's wellbeing.

Walt Dockery · 06-26-2014, 04:30 PM

I'd pass.

That car has probably been raped. At least the one i test drove i red-lined it multiple times.
