  I think you are talking about Auto Advantage. I have followed their prices over a period and it is more of hit-or-miss situation. IMHO, their asking prices are often above the national average but every now and then, you can luck out when there is a glut on the market. I nearly bought a 745 Li from that place last year, but ended up buying from dealership that was closer by because of the proximity and excellent service that they offered.

*Everything* around here costs more than the national average.
 
When I was looking (Dec 04), 530i 5spd sports were for all practical purposes nonexistent; he had the only one in the entire DC/Baltimore area. I found his prices to be about where I would have wound up after dealing, if I could have found one elsewhere. Plus he gives that 5-day money back guarantee, and I felt comfortable about the warranty. His cars also drove nicer than any of the others I test drove. But the kicker for me was when I brought it to an indie for an independent inspection. When I told him where I had bought it, he informed me that he never had any trouble with cars from there. That was good enough for me.

Wabends,
 
Thanks for the info. You actually got a very good deal. Any 530i close to yours in bay area are marked around $38K (without the ext. maintenance). There was one that dropped from that range to $33k, but sold this morning when I called
 
Well, at least the special deal will last another 3 weeks.
 
BTW, what is the special finance rate? 2.9% for 36 months, and 3.9% up to 60 months?

Sorry to hear that the 2003 5ers are pricey on the west coast.
 
  For more details about the finance rate please see http://www.bmwusa.com/CPO/specialoffers. Yes it appears this deal will end on March 31.
 
 Mine was 2.9% for 60 months.

I am looking to lease a 2006 550i for 36 months and 12k miles per year. Does anyone know the current BMW Finacial Services buy rate money factor and residual for this lease? Much appreciated. Also, is $1000 over invoice unreasonable?

24 mo/15k mi – Residual Value 70% of MSRP – .00200 Base Money Factor Rate
36 mo/15k mi – Residual Value 60% of MSRP – .00200 Base Money Factor Rate
 
Add 2% for 12K miles per year.
 
As to $1,000 over invoice that will not be easy. $1,500 should be doable.

Anyone know of a good SoCal internet or fleet manager willing to give rock-bottom pricing? Does anyone know the current MF and residual percentage? Thanks in advance.
