Timing, demand and supply by cctdi

The 335xi came to my driveway on February this year was the car standing on dealer’s lot, the deal I got was $ 550.00 above the invoice with the MSRP of $46,650.00.The car was made on 08/07, so the car might have been in the dealership for at least two months. The 535xi Alpine white loaded with rare back seats fold down option made on 04/08 with MSRP of $ 59900.00 had to come from a dealership in Rhode Island to South Jersey, and I paid $ 56000.00 on this passed June to the same dealer.
I put up just bought 07 Treareg V10 tdi for sale through VW Vortex and Touareg Club by a well known forum maker, for two months NO ONE made any offer with 20k off the price I paid for it! It took only two weeks for local VW dealer to sell my 05 Passat tdi, and I got a few same church goers asking me if I want to sell the 06 Hybrid Highlander. The old saying: the timing, demand, and supply are still the factors.

2008 535xi by gfish49

Looking to purchase a 2008 535xi, msrp 58,670. Dealer is quoting me 55,670. I would put 10k down and payment would be 840 a month for 60 months. Can I do better and if so by how much. It seems like it is a better deal to buy now instead of lease - correct. Thanks!

gfish49 - The question of leasing vs buying is a personal choice. Do you drive between 10K and 15K miles per year? Do you like to have a new car every couple years? If the answer to these questions is yes, leasing is probably your best choice. If you need more help, please feel free to email me at eights38gmail.com.

Actually, I have leased my last 5 cars. So, guess I do like new cars, but I do put a lot of milage on my cars, about 22,000 a year. So this time with the low interest rates available at BMW and comparing it to their lease rates, it almost looks like buying maybe a good deal now. The only negative is the upfront money that I would put down for buying.

gfish - i think you should be able to get a better deal on the price. i would target for 53000 or 1000 under invoice.

Thanks, I have a chance to buy a certified 2008 BMW 535xi too, msrp of 55,225 and selling price is 47,495. The car is certified and has about 9000 miles on it. It also would qualify for the .9 financing, because it was a demo car. Think I would be better off buying this or buying the brand new car. Would 47k be a good price for this car? Thanks again

528i price - $4,200 off MSRP OK? by lordsegan

MSRP is 48925. They are offering 4200 off, for 44,725. We are paying cash.
 
Does this sound reasonable?
 
It has Parking assist, premium package (included in their incentive?), iPOD.

There is more room to deal on this one based on comments here on the board and my own buying experience. You should be able to get it for about $1000 to $1200 below invoice. I would say $44,000 is reasonable.
