I sat in a zhp with alcantara seats, just to test it out. I actually liked it since I think it would be cooler and it felt comfortable. I'm not sure about comfort over the long term versus leather but it seemed nice. However, I did feel that it was a cheap look for this type of car. For this amount of money, I definitely want to spring for the leather. But that's just my opinion...I'd try it out just to be sure...they didn't have any others with alcantara to sit in? Any other dealers close by you could go to, just to test it?

blueguydotcom,
 
Thanks for the tip. Do you know the expiration date on the Cunningham offer ? Sounds like I need to plan a road trip down to San Diego . . .

What's a used 2004 325i wagon worth? by vee

Hi, I'm considering buying a European Delivery 325i wagon. It is still at the dealer and has 15000 miles on it. It appears to be in good condition other than kind of dirty. I don't know why the buyer decided to back out of the deal once it made it to the States. The MSRP for this vehicle new is $36,620 including destination charge. Should I be charged a destination charge and what would be a fair price on a "used" vehicle?
Thanks, V

Hi,
 
I'm sorry I entered the wrong mileage. The wagon only has 1,500 miles on it, NOT 15,000!
Sorry, V

I doubt they could back out of the deal at that late date. It must have been traded back in or reposessed.

Cunningham always does $400 over for costco members. Until the e90 shows up.
 
Confused, I considered the Alcantara but I prefer the longer lasting leather. I also find leather cooler (but I have the gray leather) than black cloth.

I have been vaselating between a 3 series and an Acura TSX. At the end of the day the 3 is what jazzes me, but boy are they pricey.
 
what do you think a fair price for a 2004 325xi 5 spd executive demo with 12K on it? it has premium and cold, xenon and harmon. it is non metallic. Dealer say he bought at auction for a net (after dealer incentive) of 29.5. Invoice on new is 34.5. dealer says vehicle qualifies for 1200 incentive and 1.9% financing.
 
I could buy a new stripped car for 30K. with all the options on the above do you think it is worth about the same or more??

I doubt they backed out.. Euro delivery cars have to be paid for a month before they are picked up in Germany. I think its more likely that the car was damaged in shipping, and BMW bought it back from the owner. This is all just a guess... It "may" be possible that the buyer bought the car, but after driving it 1500 miles in Europe, decided he needed a 330i or something else and traded it.
 
If it was truly an ED car, then it is now used. Forget what the MSRP is, except as info for what options are on the car. Dealer cost on the car brand new would be about $32K. With 1500 miles, and otherwise perfect, I'd want the car for $31K or less.... But, have it checked out for body and paint repair.. I think that is most likely.
 
regards,
kyfdx
