While I'm posting... I went and drove an '05 330ci with performance package. It has the cold weather package and xenons as the other options. Only 5500 miles. They are asking 40k. What do you think a fair price is for the car. $40k is a bit high to me when I think if I haggled enough, I can get on '06 for close to that. Opinions are appreciated... Thanks Stacy |

I bought a 330i in 2001, paid for half in cash. In 2003, I sold the car to a dealer, pulled $10k cash out of the car, and rolled $4500 into a 3yr lease for an identical version of the car. (Sport/Premium, Leather, Blk/Blk, Auto, Xenon, HK sound) Now - in 2 months, my lease for this car is up. My car "blue books" for about $33k retail, $28,250 private, and $25,400 trade-in value. I currently owe $24,700 after the payment I make in 3 days. Here's the dilemma. I am paying $465 monthly and I do not want my payment to go up, but I only have $1,000 cash to spend on a lease. (instead of $4,500 that I rolled into it last time) I am willing to leave the premium package off of the next 330i that I get, which will save me $2,200 retail. Without the dealership GIVING ME MONEY for the lease that I am turning into them on June 28th, I don't think that there is any way that I can get the deal I want. How does one go about negotiating some kind of value out of a car that they have to release in 2 months anyway?? Should I just sell it? I'd dump it for $27,500 if I knew I could find a buyer quickly, but I don't know how easy that would be and if it's worth it anyways. Any ideas here? Thank you!

Replying to: paultxrn (Apr 22, 2006 7:26 am) First off it would be cheaper to lease out the 330i b/c of the difference in money factors. Second I Just picked up my 330xi which was equipped as follows: premium cold weather auto navigation My MSRP was about $45500 and my lease deal is this: 560/month for 27 months. 15k, no money down, taxes in the payment(8.625%). Just first month and bank fee up front. I think you are getting a terrible deal. for the 36 month leases the 330i has a lower mf and hgiher residual than the 325 and it comes with more equipment. Go with that.

Replying to: evoic (Apr 22, 2006 4:29 pm) If you put $4500 down to get a $465/mo. payment three years ago, it seems doubtful you could get the same payment with only $1000 down in 2006. That works out to about $100/mo. less.. I don't think cars are getting any cheaper, and there really aren't any extra lease incentives on the 3-series right now.. regards, kyfdx Host-Prices Paid Forums
