Very good experience with this dealership and the people there.

I did my dealing over the phone, went there to place the deposit. My sales advisor was accomodating and gave solid ordering advice. I didn't leave with any questions.

Fast forward exactly six weeks to the day, car arrive and was prepped beautifully. Not a scratch/swirl anywhere, very clean.

Took me 15 mins to sign all the paperwork and drive away in my ride.

Definitely recommended.

Yeah I wanted to meet my sales advisor and everything before I went ahead and did business, I had not been to/seen the dealership prior.

They had an Alpina B7 sitting in the showroom, DAMN that was amazing. Worth it to drive there for that alone.

hey, Im thinking of leasing a 335 sedan, 6 speed with just the m sport package. I'm in the Philly area as well and wondering how far off invoice you got yours for. West German wants a grand over invoice, so wanted to see if your dealer offers no haggle pricing for me to sign papers.

Devon Hill was pretty firm on the price, I didn't get much of a deal ... standard stuff. $1000 over invoice isn't bad, see if you can get them down to $500. I actually don't know what my invoice price was. Car was $48,118 or something, though the sticker said $49,200 since it was built after the March price increase . I leased so the sticker price wasn't as important.

West German was real nice to me, I went there first. Only reason I went to Devon was a friend of mine knew people there and vouched for them. If you go to Devon, talk to Brian, he was my CA, great guy. Doesn't hurt to get a quote from them.

The car you're looking at sounds great; I'd suggest getting the h/k stereo if you can swing it. Kicks ass. That's all I have in my 335, M sport, 6 speed manual, h/k stereo. I kinda wish I got heated seats but it's summer now so fuck 'em lol.

EDIT: BTW have you considered the Z4 35is? You can get them ridiculously cheap... check bmwusa.com homepage. Retarded cheap. $70k car, it's cheaper than a ~$50k 335i to lease. No manual transmission in the 35is though, I think, and it's 2 seats.

Thanks for your quick reply! I think 335 sedan with m sport looks awesome. The car I'm looking at has same options as you but cold weather. Dealers aren't as ready go near invoice as I thought. I'm used to Japanese cars where they offer invoice without much haggling.

Yeah the cold weather package is nice. Only other option I might have spent money for is Comfort Access, really cool and only $500. Oh well - I need something to look forward for in my next BMW lol.

If you found an Msport 335 with a standard transmission on the lot, you are doing VERY good ... that's a rare combo. I had to custom order (~2 months, not that bad really), there were a grand total of three 335i coupes with a manual transmission and M sport east of the Mississippi. Not many people buy standard transmissions anymore ... even on a BMW.

At West German I talked to Greg - good guy, he was very accommodating.

As for how to deal with the dealer regarding pricing ... check this out:
