Buying a BMW sedan is fine........along as you get 15-30% discount. In the UK, dealers promotions are so aggressive in March and September that you can even score 0% finance or insanely huge deposit contribution. Discount are most generous on the bigger engines. In real life, the difference in cost between a 530i and 540i is just half of what it is in the configurator. If you phone around you might even get lucky with a dealer willing to give you a steep discount if you are willing to take delivery within a month of buy a car that's coming in. Discount on SUVs, especially newly launched models are max 15% if you buy off the lot.

Oh the sad irony our deals are so much worse in March. 15% is possible though. I’ve gotten multiple dealers to knock off 10k off a 67k car so that’s about 15% right? Doesn’t help other factors though. That’s why I was somewhat considering buying too then add apr, fleet, cca, coupon credits n it’s pretty aggressive but still when 3,5, 8 years down the line there’s always course correction with tech n values. 3 year Residual floats at 61% but that’s usually inflated by a few thousand vs what the car is actually going to be worth to anyone and tough to sell a BMW to anyone but a dealer for trade in so will probably be worth $4000 less than bluebook n then dealers mess with what the next car costs based on said trade in. In the end you’re at the mercy of who ever you buy your next car from if you buy a BMW in the states.

The ventilated seats don't do much. I hardly ever turn them on. What I do use a decent amount, in the summer heat, is the phone app to turn on the AC. That works great so long as I have some hybrid battery capacity (if I am going to use this feature, I use battery control to keep at least 50% hybrid battery charge) and a phone signal.
