Krzys is correct: Contact a BMW dealer. They can tell you if they have any allocations for ED purchases.

It is doubtful that you would be able to procure a late-May delivery date for your 325CIC as it is already late March, but you might get lucky. June might be possible. I am picking up my car May 9th, but I ordered a month ago. I think BMW might build a few extra for ED each month that you might pick up at an earlier date, but it would not be built to your specifications. You would have to check with your dealer for this.

Thanks for the info. I was at a dealer on Fri., and I thought I had a deal for $1000. over invoice, they even checked with BMW, and they said I may get a May 14 date. After doing some paper work, the salesperson came out of the managers office, and said the price was going to be 2000 more, but if I get in writing, they would match it. I got ticked off and walked out. Another dealer just e mailed me asking for 1750 over invoice. I have not replied, but I will turn that down..Now I wonder if I should just lease and not bother with ED

BMW finances your car.
There is a problem. You start paying your lease one month before European pickup.
It might make sense if you are on East Coast but I doubt that paying for 1.5-2 months when your car is in transit to West Coast is good.

Thanks. I wasn't exactly thinking of leasing via ED. You said that BMW finances. Do you still have to go through a local dealer, and also pay the $ over invoice to them for the service?. Also, I guess the price of the lease would be based upon the ED price. Other than losing the possible two months, is there a big savings for doing it this way, or would it be better to lease it straight up from a dealer? Thanks Kevin

BMW site for info.
You can find ED invoice prices on www.roadfly.com (edmunds does not provide pricing info for ED).
What I learned is:
ED vehicles are not coming from dealer inventory/allocation.
You can haggle the price, some dealers might not be willingful to do ED because it involves more paperwork than "normal" sale.
It is better to find a dealership which knows what ED is, what is the process and sells for less than MSRP.
Good luck.
Krzys
PS My ED is still waiting for me in the future (hell, my BMW is still probably not designed yet) - other expenses are more important.

I just wanted to get some feedback on the european delivery process and what kind of experiences people have had. Does it really save a good deal of money (7%)? The other somewhat related topic: has anybody used a middleman (eurobuyers.com) to save more money (10-12%) for european delivery or local purchase?
Is this website and the service they offer valid and worth the money?
