I am buying a 535i. It is on order and should be here in a few weeks. Does anyone have a comment regarding the extended warranty? I tend to hold on to a car and can see keeping this for 6 or more years, if all goes well. What should I expect to pay and is it better to purchase the warranty now or wait until later, closer to the end of the 4-year warranty. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi, I could finally negotiate with a dealer the following price for the following configuration: BMW 528i with Cold weather package Premium package automatic transmission Xenon lights with adaptive control USB and ipod adapter The price is $50,000 including taxes, fee everything. Is this a good price? I guess so as I got $52,000 in cars.com Also there is an option to take additional warranty after 50,000 miles for something around 2,000. Is it a good idea to take the warranty now or later? Also the dealer I am buying is not the one that's close to me. Should I get the warranty from a dealer close to me or it doesn't matter? Also please advise me if I need to be careful with anything else when I am buying. Thanks. |

Well, it's now about six weeks since I ordered my 535. I just got word from the dealer that it's built and waiting in Europe for shipment at the port. I could have it as early as the end of July. My 3 Series lease will end Aug.23rd. The question is, if I turn it in early will BMWFS pro-rate me on either car? Or, do I just wait it out?

Dealer already told me they understood that I would not take delivery immediately should the new car come in weeks before the older lease expires. They said they have a "room" for purchased cars that will be safe from being test driven and the lookieloos. |
