I paid $45,000 inlcuding destination, tax and license and had Navi, Active Steering and PDC plus what you have. MY MSRP was 47720.

I'd say the dealer lost money, since the actual invoice price (not including tax and tags) is around $45k.....

2006 BMW 330i Demo--Should I buy? by moneyb24
Sep 12, 2005 (12:04 pm)

My wife and I are looking at a 2006 330i with Sport, Premium, Heated seats. Sticker price is $41770. However, it is a dealer demo with 1540 miles, but pristine and only driven by the manger and some customers on test drive. They are giving us a price of $38,500. Should we commit? I will receive the full warranty starting from date we sign/it is considered new. Any potential issues?
 
Also, we are going to lease and then purchase at end of the lease is a money factor of .00025 good? That corresponds to an APR of 6%. Is a MF of .00021-23 possible or feasible or even reasonable? Should we demand lower
 
Thanks for the help!

I found edmunds.com add a '--- Metallic Paint' item in the option page. So, the invoice price of sparkling graphite metallic paint is still ">$430. Counting free all weather mate, I paid $702 above invoice (see previous post for details).

I had a dealership in the DC area offer a 325i with automatic as only option for
30k even. He then said he would do it for 500 over invoice. The car listed for 32,270.00. Good deal?

A $3200 discount on a practically new 330i is a good deal, especially since you get the warranty from this point on (and not from 0 miles).... The .0025 MF is their buy rate, so that is as low as they can go.

I don't know much about leasing, so can't comment on it.
However the asking price of $38,500 for a MSRP of $41,770 isn't bad. 1,500 miles is nothing really. You may want to knock down another $500 and make it even as well as asking him to throw in the tire/rim insurance which I consider essential now with the Run Flat tires on all the 06 3 series. The tire costs a minimum of $250 a pop if you get a puncture! BMW states no repair for any punctured tires. So even if you can't get him to throw in free, you may want to consider buying it. It costs between $400 to $500 depending on the dealer. It covers for five years on both tires and rims for five years.

I just placed an order for a '06 325xi with:
- Cold Weather
- Premium Package
- Metallic Paint
- Navigation
- Comfort Access
- Auto Transmission
The price they gave me is $39,360.00 plus TTL. Total OTD price: $40,080.00. This seemed to be WAY below MSRP, I was also told the vehicle would be ready for delivery in late October. With what I read in your post the production will be swamped in September. Has anyone else been quoted a similar price and/or delivery date for the xi??

Looks like a $2100+ discount (5%) on a special order, pre-production, limited-availability car.... definitely an excellent deal.
 
There are only a few cars (literally a few) that just got on a ship from Germany. The rest so far are in production. Figure about 3 weeks from port to port/carrier, plus however long it takes to get from the port to your particular dealer.
