#2328 of 2444 2012 X5 Purchase by harry28

Oct 16, 2012 (3:55 am)

I previously posted this under the X5 leasing thread, but it belongs here.
Just bought an 2012 X-5 Premium with Convenience Package.
MSRP $60,195
Purchase Price 52,195. I thought this was a very good price.
I traded in a 5 year old Mercedes ML350. I'm sure they got be for some $ on my trade in.
I was able to get 1.74% financing so I added tire protection, dent wizard and appearance package which only added about $25 to my monthly payment. (These added to the bottom line of $52,195)
I went in intending to lease, but ended up buying the car as the lease numbers were getting too confusing with lots of misc fees that I didn't like. Buying the car was more straight forward.

#2332 of 2444 2013 X5 50i by atlcarfan1

I'm interested in a 2013 X5 50i pretty loaded -- M package, 20" wheels, multi-contour seats, premium package, premium sound, tech package, m performance package -- all in the sticker is about $78,270. The dealer is offering $1,000 discount from sticker for a sales price of $77,270 and a mf of .00135 and 62% residual for a 36 month lease/10K miles. The monthly lease payment would be approximately $1,035 (including 7% sales tax). Usual fees.
 
The discount from sticker seems particularly stingy. What should I realistically expect?

The dealer I bought my X5d from would custom order a 2013 X5 5.0i to your exact specifications for $500-750 over invoice - several $1,000's less than your quote. In addition, there are a number of 2012's and even a couple of new 2011's in dealer stocks that you could pick up for well under invoice around here (DC/Baltimore).
 
I assume you are aware that the X5 is in a redesign and the new model will be out shortly? If you must buy now, so be it, but I would use that information to find a dealer that is willing to approach invoice with a custom order and go below for an in stock vehicle. Not sure if there may be other incentives you qualify for (loyalty, USAA, test drive apps), but all of those come off the sales price (i.e. in addition to the dealer discount, not in lieu of).
 
Good luck. If you custom order, consider pick up at the Performance Delivery Center.

Thanks, Habitat1. I'm aware of the redesign for 2014, although it appears to be more evolutionary than revolutionary based on the spy photos available. It appears that the changes in the new model will be similar in scale to the changes to the new 3 series sedan in comparison to the outgoing model. I'm sure the new model will have new bells and whistles and features but I'm not likekly to get the same level of discounting on it. I agree that the Performance Center Delivery is great.

Agreed, we were obviously OK with getting a 2012, knowing that the 2013/4 makeover was coming. I'll be a little disappointed if we find out that the M-diesel engine is offered in the states for 2014 model, but that's the risk I took and we did get a great deal with the $4,500 eco-credit that may/probably won't be offered on the new models. I hear the nav system and tele-metrics will be improved, but we still didn't want to wait.
 
Friendly question for you, given your obvious performance orientation, is whether you cross shopped the Cayenne GTS? The Cayenne diesel was a tad too small for us and $10k +/ more expensive after discounts on the X5d. But I did get a chance to drive the new GTS at a Porsche Driving Event a few weeks ago and it was pretty amazing. It doesn't appear that much more powerful than the "S" on paper, but behind the wheel, it felt as tight handling around the track as the Panamera S. More expensive than the X5 5.0, but at least not as outrageous as the Turbo or X5M. Sorry for the digression, just thought I'd ask.

#2336 of 2444 Residual on a '13 X5 by sponger1

Oct 17, 2012 (2:19 pm)

Can someone confirm if the residual on a 2013 X5 Premium is set by the dealer or the Mfg? I see lots of posts were it is 60% but I'm told from the dealer that it is 58% and can not be negotiated.
 
Also, is it reasonable to expect to get the car at the invoice?
 
thanks

I assume this price is after ML trade in?
