BMW’s DYNAMIC and desirable M240i Coupé has undergone a little price shaving and is now available for a more affordable $74,900 (plus on road costs). That’s a substantial saving on the $79,100 list price (last time we looked), and that was with less standard equipment.
Deliveries for the M240i Coupé with this offer will commence in the fourth quarter of this year. We’d venture to suggest BMW dealers will be beating keen customers off with a stick, because the M240i is one of the sweetest cars around.

Condition Based Servicing
All maintenance requirements for the BMW M240i Coupé are controlled by the Condition Based Servicing (CBS) system.
With CBS, sensors and advanced algorithms monitor and calculate the conditions in which a vehicle is used, including mileage, time elapsed since its last service, fuel consumption and how a vehicle is driven. Based on the information captured, maintenance requirements are determined, identifying whether an annual vehicle inspection or oil service is due.
Selected BMW service and maintenance costs can be covered by a single, one-off advance payment with BMW Service Inclusive (BSI), which is available in two packages: Basic or Plus.
