If you don't mind driving a 2.5, there are some really good CPO deals out there. My wife and I recently picked up a 16K 2004 2.5 with Step, PP, CWP, Heated Wheel, Leather, Privacy Glass, Satellite Prep and Xenons for $29595+TTL. Our dealer was Swope BMW in Louisville, KY. We are extremely happy with our new(to us) SAV and the dealership.

Question for KYFDX by gracie2

Hi - I am looking to lease a 2006 X3 3.Oi and would like to get an idea on the price I should be paying. The invoice price according to Edmunds is 33,670. I would like to add the following options, Premium package, Nav system, parking sensor control, servotronic steering, satelite prep,heated front seats. I am not sure if adding the rear side airbags makes this a safer car or not (dealers have told me that the rear side door airbags are not necessary because the car comes standard with side curtain airbags). I have teens who will be sitting in the back. The invoice price of the options runs about 4,990 without the rear door airbags. What would be a good starting point for negotiation of the total price. Also if you could give me some insight on leasing. I know that I will be putting around 15k per year. Can you give me an idea on a fair price and break down the lease for me? Thanks,

1) Don't forget to add the destination charge of $695 to the invoice..
 
I'll just use an example, since I'm too lazy to figure out the MSRP with your exact options..
 
Also, I'll use December numbers, since I don't know the January numbers..
 
$43,005 MSRP
$39,385 invoice
$40,385 Selling price (invoice + $1000) seems fair
$41,010 Cap cost (selling price + $625 acq.fee)
3yr/45K lease
Residual 60%
Money factor .00175
Payment = $540/mo.+tax
Due at signing = 1st payment, security deposit, title/license fees (Approx.$1400-$1500 total)
 
Hope this helps.. in another week, we'll know the January numbers, and can give you something more specific... but, this is a ballpark, at least..
 
regards,
kyfdx

Here's my deal: 04 BMW X3 3.0i w/ every option but heated seats and heated wheel - ie - Premium & Sport, air, auto, 18" alloys, big moonpie roof, Nav, leather, Xenons, parking detectors, premium sound, etc in "silbergrau" anthrocite/grey leather w/aluminum trim and only 12700 miles. Mint condition - only one pin-hole (gravel) in front bumper near grill.
 
Dealer ask was 34,991. My firm offer was $32K flat - cash.
He countered at $32,690. I walked (headed for the exit door - he said split the dif, so I said: do U mean $32,300? He said YES and I said write it! MSRP on original sticker was $49,430. Low milage was dealer employee (techie) who traveled by airplane. Car spent last two years at airport parking. HAHAHAHAHAHAH!
 
I ran Edmunds at 38,495 for my locale, and he ran kbb at 40K
why he took 32300 is beyond me. Oh - he was a VW dealer!
Wife and I love it - tired from detailing it all day today.
I think I did OK, bought on implulse - starting looking for a Forrester/CRV or Rav4 in low 20's. Couldn't resist - am I ok? edited typo MSRP price to $49,430. (almost NEW!!!)

My wife and I picked-up our X3 on Saturday. Here is the options and price.
 
X3 3.0L PA93 $32,500.00
Steptronic 205 inc
Saphire black 475 $ 475.00
Black leather LGSW inc
Premium pkg ZPP $ 1,800.00
18" Alloys (all season tires) 2CB $ 500.00
Aluminum trim 439 inc
Privacy glass 761 $ 350.00
Satellite radio prep 693 $ 75.00
 
Subtotal: $35,700.00
Germany freight $ 200.00
Paperwork fee $ 80.00
 
Total Delivery price to our door step: $35,980.00
 
This was a great buy (bimmer number five) for the money. I was set on buying an X5 3.0. However, once you compare the price and look at how much room you must have in your SAV I was sold on the X3. I am driving the 2005 Z4 that I bought for my wife last year, but now she will be the primary driver of the X3. The xDrive on the new Bimmers is great in the snow and ice.

Accessories Plus Installation Fees by timmboj

I've seen on the BMW website that they'd charge $325 for the Sirius Satellite, but what does a dealer charge including installation? Also I'm interested in finding out the cost of the Universal Tranceiver including installation. I just want to make sure my dealer will be similar to what others have paid.
