Washington D.C. area F30 Owners?

Just wanted to ping the DC area to see what others are seeing as far as delivery time and dealership experiences.

Also discount wise I was able to get 3500+ off sticker.

Mine took a little less than 6 weeks to arrive. Order process was very straightforward and I saved $3750 off invoice out the door.

I like your username btw. I had some buddies in the 506th when I was in the 187th at Campbell. Good unit

Not sure if thats allowed. But I used USAA's car buying service and they're the only one listed near Andrews AFB (or JBANAFW, yes that's what they're calling it now). That should narrow it down for you

Sure thing, brother. I'll restrict myself to a license plate frame just to keep things in good taste.

Military deal. I had the option to order OCONUS but wanted to support a local dealership, so they went a long way toward matching what I could get the car for overseas. I also don't pay sales tax since I'm stationed out of my home state, so unless I end up back in FL in the next 5 years for some reason there is no tax penalty.

If you don't mind me asking, did you order the car OCNUS and where is it registered? I always end up paying sales tax even though I'm stationed away from my home state.

I ordered the car locally and it's registered in FL. Not sure if all states work this way, but FL residents who are active duty military do not have to pay sales tax on cars purchased out of state so long as you are stationed outside of FL.

Smile

I bought mine from a DC area dealer. Paid $500 over invoice and used the $1500 USAA bonus cash incentive. After the USAA incentive, it came out to $1000 under invoice and the only other fee I paid was a $200 doc fee. Came out to $4430 off MSRP (not including the doc fee).

There was no negotiating. My CA asked me what I wanted to pay and the GM accepted it. My car is supposed to finish production tomorrow.

If you use the USAA bonus cash, don't go through their car buying service. The manager told me USAA car buying service is a $1000 over invoice plus a $300 dollar fee.
