Discounts on new M3/M4?

[Burwood]

Reviews are out on the C63. As expected, the M3 is outclassed. Discounting will start soon methinks

[Jim909]

Bring on the discounts, C63 looks good but a bit flash in a old man type of way for my liking, I think I need to get another M4 test drive...

And Mercedes are offering finance on the C63 at 4.7% APR with up to £6500 deposit contribution, already! Makes the current deals for the M3/4 seem pretty poor.

Isn't the merc coupe ar least 6 months off though?

[TDK]

Possibly, but the estate and saloon are out now and certainly a good rival. The M4 is up against the C63 and the new Lexus on Top Gear this weekend.

I just walked over to Barons Farnborough during my lunch break. They 2 pre-reg M4's in stock, 1 used M4 in stock (under £50k) and a used M3 in stock. Maybe a good deal could be had on the pre reg ones? I've not really looked at them up close until today; they look bloody fantastic!!

[spunko2010]

I saw someone get 18% off a pre-reg on another forum and posted proof. I got 14% off a non pre-reg so sounds legit.

Small world - I popped over to Barons of Farnborough this afternoon and took out their black M4 demonstrator for an extended test drive!

Ah ok, I just had a quick look,, my bad.

4.7% APR is available for the new C63 and there's a dealer contribution of approximately £1200 detailed on the Mercedes website too.

Slight tangent, but BMW are doing M5s on 0% APR at the moment!

Let's hope something similar comes along for the F80.

The M6 has a 0% finance offer because its list price is way overpriced and BMW is clearly having trouble shifting them. The M3/M4 sells in much bigger volumes, for example the M4 alone already has approx 750 cars registered since it came out where as the M6 gran coupe varient for example has been out alot longer and has only ~ 130 cars registered in the UK. The cars that get 0% offers are the more expensive saloons such as the M5, some 6 series variants/M6, and the 7 series by the looks of things. ie. the bigger, most expensive saloons that are selling in smaller volumes and have been out some time in their life cycle.

Also it all looks great when the 0% deal arrives but this is often accompanied by a corresponding drop in the BMW UK/dealer deposit contribution such that the overall price you pay in the long run isn't much improved.

Did the E90 M3 ever get offered with a 0% finance deal and if so how soon after its launch was it offered?, I suppose such history is the best guide as to whether a better deal will appear in due course.

Iirc, e90s were available for around £500pcm with a small deposit for a while. I certainly don't recall a 0% deal.

Pretty sure the E9X generation M3 was available at 0% towards the end of it's life cycle, in 2013 if I recall correctly.
