BMW Makes these things to order

You wont find much inventory of Z4s at dealers and few discounts. The car is built for BMW by Magna in Austria so BMW doesn't need to fill up a plant with lots of demand to make money. They want to make a certain margin on every Z4 or they wont build it. The other thing is Magna can make only so many Z4s and the car was really successful in Europe so fewer come here. I doubt that BMW even ships many Z4s to the northern US in winter. They just wont build them now and wait for demand to come in spring. Each dealer by me has 1 in stock max.

You would think competition would take care of the "no deals" BWM situation.

I'd go straight to a Lexus or Audi if they had something similar to the Z4. Porsche is a rip off IMO.
