Hi all. I am considering getting a 328i fairly soon to take advantage of the 0.9% financing. For those who have taken advantage of that financing, how stellar does your credit have to be? My credit is above average but not excellent (high 600s, low 700s depending on agency), and my wife is likewise in the low 700s. Would this generally be enough to qualify? Thanks

Does this sound like a good deal in NJ? 328xi, Premium, Cold Weather, Automatic, Navigation, Xenon. 41k + Taxes, Title, etc.

Replying to: purchasingsoon (Aug 13, 2008 10:31 am) cool good post, thanks for the great info! just one question, can you clarify the dealer_profit? what should that be typically? thanks. " I'm happy you liked the post. As for your question: Purchase price formula for a 335i: invoice_price + maco (400) + training (180) - automatic_option_credit (1260) + dealer_profit. (MACO is region dependent. This was from Fremont BMW) The dealer_profit part of this formula I think depends on the car and the dealer. I remember somewhere reading that it is between $300-1k. But I think it might depend on the car. Some cars seem to be much higher in demand then others. I think for a 335i sedan in August 08 you should easily be able to do $500 or less dealer profit. Tthis might be because I was looking at fairly fully loaded cars... not sure if car options play into dealer profit. I would search through the edmunds forums. I would also try searching bimmerfest (I tried a little bit... but I couldn't find the post I was looking for). In google type: "site:bimmerfest.com dealer profit" You may want post at bimmerfest's ask a dealer forum - I would post for the exact car type and options you want to know the dealer profit for. Sometimes they give quite valuable answers: http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=20 |

Just leased a 335 coupe..auto...fully loaded. MSRP $51,500. Got $4500+ off sticker. Leased for 36 mths, 15k miles a year, 54% residual, .0017 money factor. Think its a pretty good deal. Shopped it at couple other dealers and no one could come close to the $4,500 off MSRP.
