Anybody hear of any deals on the new BMW 325xi wagon? I plan to buy, not lease and the NY dealers are asking full MSRP and they don't have any in stock.
 
Thanks.

That's about the size of it..... Inventory is so low and demand is really high. Most dealers are calling around trying to get other dealers to trade, but no one will let them go.
 
You can either pay to get one now (or very soon), or you can wait 6 months and pay a little less.

330 Sedan Lease by s4lvr1

Looking at a 3 yr/36k lease on an '06 330 Sedan with the following options:
- Sport Package, Comfort Access, Heated Seats, Satellite Radio, and Silver metallic paint. MSRP is $40,965
 
I have just had an initial discussion with the dealer and of course, he is trying to get the most out of me as possible. I am interested in learning where will be the best points for negotiation.
 
- Acq fee = $825
- Govt fees and Doc fees = $180
- Sec deposit = $700
- lease rate of 2.35, not sure what this equates to as money factor
 
Quoted $1550 out of pocket and monthly payment of $672.51
 
That payment feels overly high for this car. What is a reasonable target payment for a similarly equipped 330?
 
Thanks,
Chris

Chris, RUN from this deal.
 
I want to share with the forum my deal I just did today, and thank KDYFX and others for their advice.
 
06, 330i, Metallic, Manual Trans, Sports Pkg, Nav. Car needs to be ordered, will arrive in 2 months. MSRP: $41,370. Sale Price: 38,865. I negotiated to $800 over online invoice, stating I refuse to count MACO.
 
My lease terms were standard. .00195 MF. $625 acq fee which I rolled into the cap cost. 3 year, 12K per year. at 8.25% tax, my monthly came out to $524.75.
 
My drive off will be first month, plus $550 security deposit, and about $300 in DMV fees.
 
The dealer allowed me to pay via credit card a refundable deposit of $500 and I can cancel before delivery.
 
I want to highly recommend New Century BMW's Internet Sales dept in Alhambra, Southern California. The guy was straight forward, did everything over email, and in 30 minutes in his office, we got it done. He played no tricks, and gave me the exact numbers I had calculated from Kydfx without me ever showing him my numbers.
 
I'm still in shock over how easy it was, and the $800 over internet invoice was offered to me before I ever gave the configuration I wanted. If you are in SoCal, you have to give these guys a try. However, I don't recommend their live sales people, as our first experience there was very bad. one person first quoted us non-refundable deposit of $1500, then he passed us off to another guy who said non-refundable of $2000, and refused to show me their invoice price, and lectured me on why I owe him MACO and he'll get it from me no matter what. They just didn't have their numbers straight.
 
Thanks to this forum, I went in the dealership knowing exactly what I wanted and had confidence when the numbers were being shown.

My 06' 330i deal and a question on Radio settings by aircart

I bought it out of state with paying cash.
$800 over edmunds.com invoice + $198(doc fee).
I will do title/registration and tax myself.
 
Can anybody teach me how to deactivate speed-dependent volume? I just did not like the volume going up when speed was increasing.
Thanks a lot.

Lease numbers for 2005 models by asleepy
Jan 23, 2006 (8:27 am)
Reply
1. Does anyone know the lease numbers for existing 2005 models on a dealer's lot?
 
2. Are there any other incentives for 2005 models?
 
3. When does the warranty start -- when I take possession or when the car was built?
 
Thanks,
A.

I don't think you can still lease the 2005 3-series.... Even if you could, it probably wouldn't be worth because the residual would be so poor.
