MAN was it hard to decide between the Cayman S, Z4 MCoupe, Z06 Vette and 335i Coupe. It came down to …

1) Practical as a daily
2) Availability of a GOOD automatic because my wife cant drive a stick
3) Color, Yes this car was going to be Black with Red interior if I could make it happen
4) Bang for the buck


1) Winner was 335i Coupe
2) Winner was 335i Coupe
3) Winner was Z4 MCoupe and 335i Coupe
4) Winner was the Vette

Cayman won the emotional contest but I have to keep my perspective on reality.

So I just ordered my 335i Coupe for February build only managed to get 1K off MSRP. I called and e-mailed a lot of dealers and they are all giving 500 off. Even with the promise of a 5K non refundable down payment they were not moving. Lots of people claim to have got as much as 2k off and in one case 588 over invoice. I could not put that deal together unless it was a ED and I am not doing that.
