I just ordered my 2008 335i convertible for 695 over invoice, custom built. Delivery scheduled for late June.
 
Options: Sports; Premium; Cold Weather; Steptronic Auto; Sports leather steering wheel and paddle shifters; Comfort Access; Navigation; HD Radio; Satellite Radio; ipod/USB adaptor; for 55,100 plus tax and license.
 
If you take into account that the BMW pricing has increased as of 5/10/08, this price is actually below the invoice.
 
This dealer is in Texas.

$31888? by jaxs1

I saw an ad in a local paper that says this dealer is offering new 2008 328 sedans for $31,888 and 3.9% financing for 60 months.
 
Features listed are:
 
Automatic transmission
Remote keyless entry
Sunroof
Wood trim
Alloy wheels
Dynamic Stability Control
 
So, it sounds like the only "option" is automatic and these cars would have unheated leatherette seats, non-metallic paint, no bluetooth and the basic stock radio.
 
The ad says 7 are available at that price and it's in Northern California.
 
I calculate:
 
It would be about $34,700 after tax, license and doc fee.
If I weren't going to put down any money the monthly payment would be about $637 a month for 60 months.
If I wanted payments under $500 a month, I'd need to put down about $7400 in cash and/or trade equity.
 
I'll have to check with my insurance agent to find the latest insurance rates so I could calculate my total monthly costs.
I'll also need to check on what I can expect to pay for tire replacements. At least the base tires should be less expensive than the Sport Package tires.
I'm more likely to get a lower priced car than a new BMW, but I'm curious about this.
 
Is there anything fantastic about this advertised special or should there be better deals available now?

I recently purchased a 2008 335i Convertible with steptronic, heated seats, Sirius, comfort access, rear backup option , navigation, BMW assist w/bluetooth. The exterior is white with red sun reflective leather on the inside! I paid $51,195.00. Was this a good deal? I appreciate any feedback.

?!!
 
The other post was asking for a lease calculation and other lease-related questions, so it was posted in the lease questions area.
Does anyone have anything useful to reply with?

No the S5 is not available as a convertible. He's doing an apples and oranges comparison. He's basing the purchase on price.
