I don't know where you are located. Some have been offered a 2.9% for 60 month rate from BMW which is obviously great. If they don't give you a good rate from BMW financial, check other credit unions.

The best APR for any CPO BMW is the 2003 5-series at 2.9%.
 
BTW, why is APR your only criteria?.... Say you were equally happy with a 3-series for $30k and a 7-series for $60k but the 3-series had 4.9% and the 7-series had 3.9%, both for 60 months. The 3-series would have a payment of $564/mo with total interest of $3885 over the 60 months, while the 7-series would have a payment of $1102 with total interest of $6137.....
 
I'm not sure why the absolute lowest APR is the only criteria. Is it because you've had bad interest rates in the past and want to get a good one this time? Even still, you should also consider other criteria in addition to APR....

I'm about to take the plunge and buy an 330i in the next few weeks (unless there's real news about the coupe release date). Does anyone have recent info on which dealers in the LA area are making the best deals and if they had good/bad experiences? Also, what is the going amount over invoice I should expect these days? Thanks.

OK...Ive been reading this forum for a while. Just got off the phone with the dealer. Here are the lease variables he gave me on a 330i, sport/premium/6-speed.
 
3 yr/ 12k
 
Resid - 64% - looks good
MF - .00250 -- that is WAY high
Acq Fee - $825 -- high too
 
OK..before I go guns a blazin on this guy I want to confirm. The base rate for April is .00195, and this IS negotiable? He told me the only way to get it down was to give him a security deposit. Is that true?? Also, the Acq fee IS negotiable?? Is the base rate still $625? Thanks for your help!

Is this a decent deal? by jaxdave

Dealer in N. Florida is offering the following deal:
2006 325i
Sparkling Graphite
Steptronic Automatic
Premium Pkg
Sport Pkg
IDrive/Nav
Adaptive Xenon Headlights
Sirius Satellite Radio
 
$39,515 plus Tax, Tags/Registration.
 
This is below Edmunds TMV and also below KBB "Book Value". Sounds like a decent deal to me. Any idea what the going rates above invoice are in FL right now? Any opinions/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
