I've called around to a few dealers and the lowest quote I've received is $39,880 for a 2009 328i xdrive for: Alpine white Premium Package Heated Seats Ipod Connector This is about $1400 above invoice. Is this a good deal or should I hold out for something better? Thanks!

I just picked up a 2009 335i Coupe from Weatherford BMW in Berkeley (California). Here are the specs: * Manual Transmission * Premium Package * Sports Package * 19" Wheels * Power Rear Sunshade * Heated Front Seats * Parking Distance Control * iPod/USB Adaptor * Navigation * Satellite Radio * Logic 7 Sound Paid: $50,580 (before taxes, license, etc...) I actually went in with the intention to special order different color and slightly less options but after taking a closer look at my original color I backed out and went with black/black which, coincidentally, they had 1 MT 335 in stock. It had a couple options I didn't really need, but it was there and the thought of having it that day put me in a state of euphoria. I already have worked out a deal with the sales rep over phone/email for $600 over invoice. But I guess she took advantage of my eagerness and I ended up paying $1100 over invoice. We were actually negotiating relative to invoice and agreed on $800 over, but they tack on this additional $300 internal thing, supposedly for prepping the car, paying their utility bill, and keeping the toilet paper well stocked. I know it's BS, but I decided not to fight that battle. After all they are my neighborhood BMW dealer where I have to take the car in for maintenance and didn't feel like getting nasty with them. Besides - I felt that $1100 over invoice was a fair deal, for a 2009 manual trans in stock (very hard to find MT). Also - when I almost bought one last year, the best deal I was offered was $100 off MSRP. |

I am new to BMW car. My local dealer has similar lease on both 08 528i and 335i, with 335i equipped more with Nav. and Xenon headlight. No sport package for both cars. Please help me with some advises if I should go for the 335 engine or the 5 series space? Thanks in advance.

Replying to: polyester1970 (Dec 07, 2008 12:55 am) Congratulations on your new purchase. I bet black/black is stunning! That would be my first color choice too but I purchased a new black/black Mercedes C350 earlier this year (very nice car but my son ‘borrowed’ the car and won’t give it back  ), so I am now shopping for a red or white 328 convertible. I think you could probably save a few hundred dollars if you played hard ball but MT is indeed very hard to find and I definitely agree with you not to fight the battle. Enjoy your new car!!! Paul |

Replying to: JH2009 (Dec 07, 2008 9:12 am) It all depends upon your preferences and your needs. Have you driven both cars? If not, you really need to do that before you can make a decision. Do you prefer the extra power of the twin turbo or do you need the added room of the 5er? In my case I wouldn't want either car without the Sport Package, but I'm a track geek. I also don't like big heavy cars, and the 3 Series is almost too porky for my tastes- never mind the 5 Series. That said, it's your money; buy what YOU like... |
