Hi, THANK YOU so much for the information. What do you think the downpayment will be for that lease in Oct.? Does it vary from Dealer to Dealer? When I was talking to them in August, they were talking about me putting something like 5-7K down. That seemed like a lot, but it is a lot of car.... Thank you, Mark

Looking at purchasing a new X5. With the new $5,000 marketing support things look pretty good from a timing perspective but obviously want a great deal. We are considering two X5's with the same equipment (only difference is the non-metallic color). They both have an MSRP of $48,470 (not sure if destination is included) and have the same equipement: Premium Package (W/On-Board Computer/leather), Rear Climate Package, Automatic Transmission, Xenon Adaptive Headlights. Looking for a price to offer the dealer on a vehicle. Thanks.

Replying to: cartalk (Sep 14, 2005 7:52 am) I'd ask for $8500 off MSRP, and settle for $8K off.... $1000 is plenty of profit on an '05 model.... that they are obviously trying hard to move... regards, kyfdx |

Replying to: kyfdx (Sep 14, 2005 8:28 am) Thanks. Here's the deal now. The dealer faxed over his invoice that totaled $44,700 including the MACO of $300 and Training Service Fee of $180. The same invoice reveals an MSRP of $48,470 including destination. So now what should I offer. I offered $40K and he replied that it was unreasonable. How far off am I. BTW, it's Jet Black which is not a preferred color in the desert but it's the only one of the 5 left that doesn't MSRP for over $50K. BTW, I haven't been on here for a while and noticed the HOST title - congrats! |

Replying to: cartalk (Sep 15, 2005 8:09 am) I think you are within $500-$700 of a fair price... Rather than offer a higher price, ask him what he thinks is reasonable, considering the $5K incentive.... regards, kyfdx |

| Hi, I was just wondering if someone could answer my question I wrote on #436.....I would like to be prepared when the time comes. Also, after finding this site and reading so many Q&A, I want to say THANK YOU to the HOSTS and all those who answer or ask all of these very good questions. I hate to say this almost, but, someone could take all these and put it into a book form and I really think it would sell......Thanks again, Mark | |

Replying to: cartalk (Sep 15, 2005 8:09 am) Since I'm going to lease one and they jacked the rate so high, I am going to wait until Oct. and see if things get better.

Replying to: schutzhund1 (Sep 11, 2005 3:34 pm) In fact, you should strive to have your upfront costs be as low as possible.. That way, you know exactly how much you are paying to rent the car... regards, kyfdx

Replying to: tpjcourtney (Sep 16, 2005 6:47 am) I was offered from one dealer (with the $5K incentive) invoice less $2,100. Not a good deal in my book as that's $2,900 for the dealer. Didn't get close with the other dealer either. I'm very likely going to pass at this time since all the available X5's are black and that doen't suit me here in the desert. I'm hoping they do what they did with the incentives earlier this year with the 3 series when the new one was coming out. Incentives were better in the early months on the '05 3's in Jan/Feb than they were in September of '04 (when I bought my 3). The only drawback to this is that there are no guarantees and the '07 X5 will be introduced later in the year than the '06 3 series was. kyfdx, any opinions/insight on this strategy? |
