Hello, I am intrested in this car I saw at the Acura dealership I go to for service . The specs are below. Any advise on how much I should offer? I also requested the carfax report from the dealer because I feel their price is on the low side for this car...something might be up with it. Thanks in advance.   Bodystyle: 4 door Sedan Engine: 2.5L I-6cyl Transmission: Automatic Ext. Color: Blue Int. Color: Parchment Leather Mileage: 17,992 Internet Price: $23,995   How would I know if it has a sports package? Should I buy an extended warranty? If so, from where?

Replying to: arache97 (Nov 27, 2006 8:32 am) arache97-   Depending on where you live, I would say that the price being offered is pretty much on par with what I would expect (not a tremendous deal by any means where I'm at). Also, be careful because non-BMW dealerships will often market a vehicle as having leather when it actually has leatherette.   The Sport package is easily identified by the unique seats, a different steering wheel, and (in most cases) lowered suspension.   You are definitely going to want the extended warranty, as even though this vehicle has low miles, even easy fixes cost a boatload on a Beemer.   Hope this helps.

Replying to: vonrauss (Nov 27, 2006 10:12 am) Thanks Vonrauss. I'm in NYC. I'm getting the carfax report as we speak so I'll see it's history. I saw the car yesterday and believe it has leatherette. Does that matter?   Also do you suggest I buy an extended warranty from them or can I go to a BMW dealership and purchase on from them?   Thanks Replies to this message: vonrauss (Nov 27, 2006 11:23 am)

Replying to: arache97 (Nov 27, 2006 10:17 am) Well, if it has leatherette (and no premium package), then I'm guessing that you can get them to come down a little bit in that price. I'm not 100% familiar with the market in NY, but out here in SoCal the BMW market is very saturated and you could probably get a car like this for somewhere between 22k and 23k.   As for where to get the warranty, I'm not exactly sure. But I know if you call your local BMW dealership they should be able to give you a nice recommendation.

#6987 of 10316 335i sedan lease by btsichen Dec 01, 2006 (8:51 pm)
Just leased a Monaco Blue 335i sedan, steptronic, premium, heated seats, Sirius radio from United BMW in Roswell.   MSRP $44,690 Cap $42,441 36mo /15k MF .00165 residual 26,270 (61%)   I rolled the aquisition fee in to the cap cost ($625), negotiated the doc fees, etc. into the negotiated price, and added .00015 to the MF instead of paying a security deposit.   Due at signing was first month payment of $566.81 + tax and tags.   The internet CA was very responsive and all negotiating was done on email over two days. Initially, they quoted a MF of .0019 and an aquisition fee of $825, both of which the CA conceded was just added dealer profit.   This was my first lease and BMW. Overall, it was a smooth and low stress process, mainly because after reading this board, I felt informed re: current pricing, rates, and the leasing process. Thanks to the people and moderators on this board for the help. Replies to this message: jrmstr33 (Dec 05, 2006 4:44 pm) blueguydotcom (Dec 05, 2006 5:25 pm) jrmstr33 (Dec 06, 2006 4:32 pm)
