Swope has a new 128i on their lot equipped almost exactly the way I'd order it: Sport Pkg., heated seats, iPod/USB, and Xenons. Nothing else. The only thing I'd add would be the upgraded sound system. The MSRP is $34K, and I'm sure they'd deal a little bit(it's been there for  3 weeks) but I've enjoyed living without a car payment for the last 3 years. It sure is sweet, though. And it's not terribly slow; 14.3 in the quarter mile- which is about a second slower than a 135i and just as fast as my old E24 M6 before I chipped it and the cat fell off. Wonder how much I could get for a kidney?

yeah, I discussed that with him. Of course, out of 400 must sell Volvos, not 1 normal V70 turbo. There is a base model, but not that I care for. There is a V50 T5 AWD, but I don't know the details. And a silver V70R that got me tempted, but it might be too far past the practical cut off! But mostly it is pretty beat up (loads of body work), not a good thing on a car like that. But, if you want an XC90 or S60 relly cheap, you can have as many a you want.

Replying to: stickguy (Dec 09, 2008 5:03 pm) i'm so surprised that there isn't one standard V70 out of such a huge lot. |

Replying to: roadburner (Dec 09, 2008 4:08 pm) I would think even BMW dealers would be marking down cars. Their sales have been way down the past few months. Would you trade the Mazda3 in ?

Replying to: guss (Dec 10, 2008 8:30 am) Yes, I'm sure that they would deal, and I would be getting rid of the Mazda. The thing is, I'd still have to finance about $15K- and the only debt I really planned to be carrying into 2009 was a 36 month no-interest loan on a new TV and BD player. |

Replying to: roadburner (Dec 09, 2008 4:08 pm) You'd think in this economy, you could get a great deal, but then I don't know the market for new 128i's? And you've probably done the comparisons w/buying a new or used 3-series.... I saw this wierd movie about some guy who was drugged by kidney thieves & got his kidney stolen (!??) in Mexico, not good......didn't even get a new bmw.... PS-what kind of new TV? I've been shopping for a new 42" Panasonic Plasma, but only if I get a killer deal. Personally I'd hoard cash now & be shopping for a slightly used bmw........

You might be interested in this video ... looks like you can hang with the Jeeps and Hummers of the world in your new whip: Can your car do this? (Note: you may want to turn the volume down, as the soundtrack is quite annoying) |

Replying to: michaell (Dec 11, 2008 11:43 am)  I wonder if they even bothered to air down the tires. |
