Z4 Price Increase ?

Post by blaster1956 » Thu Oct 28, 2021 2:44 pm

Anyone heard about a hike in the Z4 prices in the last couple of weeks?

Online configurator is showing an increase on base M40i of around £1k (approx 2%). Not sure about other models.

Just had a look myself and there is a price increase.
Packs are the same price, but base price has gone up just over 1k.

Interesting - wonder if this is normally the time of year for increases, or if this is "Out of Cycle" because of exceptional inflationary pressures (Energy prices, transport, etc).

Price of mine is locked in so not worried from a personal perspective :rofl:

Might be regular price increase. This car will be touching 60k new with a few packs on it in a couple of years.

When is yours due?

Still no scheduled build date, my expectation is March/April though.

Looks like another £1k has recently been added to the list price of the M40i, now showing as £52,285 on configurator without any options - that's a £2k increase since I ordered mine in September (for significantly less car!).

Happy New Year from BMW :rofl:

Having just gone on the car config page, it’s obvious the price has gone up, but hardly any options are available. Limited tech pack is available on the m40i only. Vis pack is available on all models.
Comfort and driver assistance packs aren’t available at all.

What a mess.
I really hope all you guys who have cars arriving soon get when you ordered. Fingers crossed.

Presumably you can reject the car if it doesn't turn up with the spec as ordered

Is there no small print that price increases are passed on? With Porsche, any price increase after order is still added before delivery.
Current:
911-50 Black - unique spec
X5M - 575 hp of fun in a V8
Abarth 595 Comp.
Golf Clipper - collectors item
Z4 3.0si Black Sapphire
VW ID.3

Previous:
Z4M Silver Grey - non flimper spec (gone to Bing)
Z4 3.0 Toledo

Can they add to the price after you have agreed a cost for the vehicle and placed the order? Outrageous :x
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

If it's in the contract you signed, yes.

Think of your mobile contract monthly payment, most will rise during the contract.
