The benefit of finding one however is you have more room to negotiation. Dealers want to get cars off their floor, ESPECIALLY manual transmission cars which are harder to sell. Plus dealers want to make sales by month end to meet numbers, and they get trunk money (kickbacks from BMW NA) for moving floor inventory.
But then again, for the cost to ship/drive a car back from far away may not be worth it either.
