Replying to: bdkinnh (Oct 02, 2007 5:42 pm) Wow! I personally don't negotiate on these cars and I've owned several. BMW has one of the highest residual values. It doesn't help the residual value of the product posting deep discounts like this on one of the Finest brands in the world. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Oct 03, 2007 1:28 pm)

Replying to: twistedmetal (Oct 03, 2007 10:53 am) Well... the whole purpose of the Prices Paid forums is to post how much you paid...   We have over 460 separate discussions, just to relate that specific information.   If a potential buyer can save $3000 on the front end, I'm pretty sure that will make up for any loss in possible depreciation caused by that same post. I know the pen is mightier than the sword.. but, I'll subscribe to the saying, Knowledge is Power   regards, kyfdx

If you lease a car, bring a calculator with you. After you negotiation the purchase price of the car, and the dealer calculates the lease payments for you, be sure and tie out their numbers with yours. If there any discrepancies, ask the dealer for a clarification. I am stunned at the sleight of hand I experienced in leasing my 535xi. I had dealers negotiating a Cap Cost and stating that they are using the published MF, Residuals, and MSRP for the configuration I wanted, and then coming out with payment numbers that were materially off from what I calculated. I verified that their inputs were the same that I was using. I also verified that the taxes were treated the same. I verified everything. When I questioned them, they refused to go into the math with me. Flat out refused. I asked to speak to the sales manager, and he was no better. It was disgusting. Other dealers were happy to go thru the math and bring in their finance person, if necessary. Do not be timid about checking the math and calling them out.
#2761 of 3028 Current Central NJ Offer by sabilok Oct 04, 2007 (6:59 pm)
Just curious what others have been quoted recently:   I have been quoted on a 535Xi with NAV, Prem, Cold Weather, Sat Radio the following: $57,720 List $55,150 Lease Price 36 Months MF of 0.00225 Residual of .60 or Buyout $32,382 20,000 miles per year $3,103.48 due at sign (1st month, $825 Bank Fee, $900 Sec, $487.60 Lux Tax/NJ DMV 3 years) $894 month including NJ 7% tax   Sounds a bit high but I have not dealt with BMW prior to this.

Replying to: joelk01 (Oct 03, 2007 3:52 pm) What state did you buy your car from? How much did you pay for out of the door?   Thanks, Tony

Replying to: bdkinnh (Oct 02, 2007 5:42 pm) bdkinnh,   Did you buy your 535i brand new with a few miles only on it or it is one of those car for test drive which got high mileage? It seems you got an extremely good deal(invoice price). Replies to this message: bdkinnh (Oct 05, 2007 9:15 am)
