OK thanks for the info but the dealer was full of BS and the car was it lack condition to say the least. I have found the car i love.... its also a 06 X5 white with black leather int, premium pack and BMW assist, blue tooth and the panoramic sun roof with the garage door/ gate opener there.It is mint condition and the mileage is a bit high...28481. It does have the maint pack for 2yrs or 22k more mileage and the ext warr b/c its CPO. They are asking $31999 and KBB lists at $30,605. Edmund's shows $30362 but $33100 for CPO. I want it for $30 out the door no more then 30,500 out the door. Is this as ridiculous as they think? I cant neg there in person BC I'm a single mom working FT with a 1 yr old so we can't sit there for hours. what do you advise? Also do i wait for them to call me back? I had them bring the car to me at work to check out yesterday and i told the guy i was going to do more research on the numbers but i wanted for 30 out> i f they gave what i wanted i would be driving it at lunch today (Thurs). i am a cash buyer and i had 2 ML350 to look at. I left him with that and haven't heard back yet that was at 4pm on wed. help Im so excited and a little nervous about such a high purchase.

Think down the road when the maintenence service is on your credit card and the warranty is over. To quote a moderator of the bmw forums " Have you ever seen the service bill for a euro import"? Keep that in mind.
Since they brought the car for you to see they probably assessed you as being VERY interested and will play you a bit hoping that you will want to close the deal on their terms. They may be willing to wait a month or so figuring this price will appeal to some one else if you don't bite. They may give you a day or two to stew and then give in a little and see if you buy.
If you have 30K cash to buy then I wouldn't be afraid to wait until you find a car that meets your needs better and make a take it or leave it offer. By Jan/Feb the prices will not be any higher for used 4.8's and may be lower. This one may still on the lot and you can offer 28k for it. Good deals are usually reserved for those who project knowledge, patience and little emotion. My 09 murano awd with lots of extras listed for 34k and I bought it for 29k. It's certainly not a X5 but is nice and will cost me nothing for three years. Free oil changes. Look around and see if there is anything else out there that might make you happy. One thing for sure , with the economy and the auto industry tanking it's a buyers market unless you let them dictate the terms of the negotiation. Be patient and cold hearted until you close the deal. Remember you have the cash and are willing to spend it but only if the deal is right. You have some doubts about this one [mileage] so they have to resolve your objections by sweetening the deal.

None of the dealers have the right vehicle for me (none has the 20" wheels with light color exterior), so I paid $400 for Peter Pan to truck me the car from somewhere in LA.

From Peter Pan BMW in San Mateo. That's no BS and pretty much get the deal right away. It must be the end-of-month deal + bad economy.

Buying a 2008 X5 by speedy33

I'm still hoping to get feedback on prices paid for a X5 3.0 if anyone has them? Also, can I expect 2008s to remain on the lot through January? I'm trying to get the best deal and can wait to pull the tigger if it's worth it. Thx.

I bought mine a couple of months back for about 3K below invoice. It is almost fully loaded with Prem., Sport, Tech., Rear Climate, Cold Weather, 3rd Row, Running Boards with the .9% financing. I heard from my CA that business is better this month than last, so might be fewer deals out there. I would not wait too long, the longer you wait the less chances of getting all the features you want. My main req. were Sport and 3rd Row but had to get the others 'cause there were none on the lot with that combo.
 
Good Luck
