I wouldn't necessarily go just for the "Savings" ...
Beats paying MSRP

I got vacation days, so I could essentially fly there, pick up the car, drop it off at the drop off point, fly back and smile that I saved close to 10%

Are you flying for free? Otherwise you have to figure that in ... And if you do ED and then don't drive it around Germany you're nuts

They have a promo with Lufthansa, 2 for 1 ticket, have a friend fly with me, split the ticket cost. So the ticket costs about $400 plus food and lodging. Overall I'd still save 7-8%

Good to know, the sunshade is more of a want than a need. I'm going to tint anyways so I guess its pointless to get the shade.

That is pretty much the norm for BMW dealerships for upgrades or new facilities...Lots of high floor to ceiling windows, multi levels and a large parking lot & service bays. Congrats from the East Coast !!!!
