#395 of 495 Re: Fair price in South East [michaelro303] by hweaver Sep 29, 2005 (8:07 am)
Replying to: michaelro303 (Sep 25, 2005 1:49 pm) Where did you hear $4,500??? I want it! I am looking at a 2.5 with prem pkg, sports pkg, leather, and heated seats. 05's are HARD to come by... I want a stick too... The invoice is 38,615 so that would be 33,615 I'd buy it today if they'd do it. they have blue and one has red.. I really wanted SILVER though When I looked on edmunds.com it has $2,500 for the dealer cash.. where did you get the proof of $4,500 ?? I can't find it anywhere... And will the dealers to invoice minus the cash, they SHOULD, inv they are making money, plus the 06's are coming in, plus the cash is from BMW not out of their pockets.. Heidi any advice.. I noticed a note about NC, SC, VA area.. I am in the fayetteville, nc area; 1.5 hrs from raleigh. .I hope dealers are not stubborn... great. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Sep 29, 2005 8:09 am)

#397 of 495 Dealer incentive scheduled to expire by bigbore1 Sep 29, 2005 (4:46 pm)
I ordered a new 2.5 liter Z4 about two weeks ago. The purchase price is contingent on the sale being finalized before the dealer incentive expires. If the incentive is carried over to October, then obviously there would not be a problem. So, It looks like tomorrow might be the deadline.... I am not optomistic that the incentive program will be continued.   I was told that the deal can fall under the incentive IF the vehicle is "VINed" by September 30. Is there any way that I can independently confirm if the vehicle has been "VINed" ? I have the production number for the Z4, but can't find any BMW website that will allow me to access the information.   Does anyone know which stage in the build process that the vehicle receives it's VIN? I believe this Z4 is at stage 152 or 153.   Is anyone in a similar position...and can anyone share some information on a purchase strategy for my circumstance?   Thanks
#398 of 495 Incentives by vsaxena Sep 29, 2005 (6:18 pm)
Incentives normally do not expire especially when the model year is ending and there are cars still being produced. They expire if production has stopped. Then the dealers punch their unsold inventory (declare it as sold) and then sell them as demos, or use them as loaners. This way they keep the incentives.   If the car is still under production and there is a lot of unsold inventory, the incentives will continue (or might even go up as they did last year).   The inventory levels seem to be lower this year since BMW seems to have adjusted to lower roadster sales and the introduction of newer roadster models by other vendors.

Firstly, regarding incentives - 2005 Z.4's must still be in production because I want to order an '05 2.5i and the dealer I'm negotiating with just indicated the market allowances have been extended until the end of October. The market allowances posted by kyfdx are correct.   Secondly, I need some numbers and opinions.......   This is what I want to order - 2005 Z4 2.5i Toledo Blue Metallic (Exterior) Beige leather (Interior) Light Popular Grain Wood Trim Black fully-auto soft-top Power front seats MANUAL TRANSMISSION Wind Deflector   This is the dealer's offer: $34,365 plus Tax 6%, New tag retail $250.00, Transfer $150.00, Dealer Fee $379.50, Lemon Law fee $2.00, Tire,Battery fee $6.50. If you Lease there is a Lease Fee of $70.49 to the State of Florida.   Questions: 1- what amount is the sales tax applied to (cap cost, lease cost, etc.)? 2- what are the residual values for 36, 39 and 48 month leases? what should money factors be, respectively? 3-TMV 'What Others are Paying' is $35,106. Is this a good deal? Thank you! Replies to this message: bdr127 (Oct 03, 2005 5:58 am)

Replying to: therose400 (Oct 01, 2005 1:39 pm) 3-TMV 'What Others are Paying' is $35,106. Is this a good deal?   IF you're paying almost $1000 under "what others are paying", then it's probably a good deal, huh?
#401 of 495 Incentives are UP by $500 in October by staryjary Oct 10, 2005 (9:06 am)

#402 of 495 The latest.... by therose400 Oct 10, 2005 (4:09 pm)
Cap cost = $34,065   Now dealer wants to add $825.00 bank fee & $500 Refundable Security Deposit for an '05 BMW Z4 with regard to the 30 month lease. According to a previous post, basic bank fee is $625, so he's marking that up. I have leased 3 vehicles in the past and NEVER paid bank/acquisition fees nor security deposit. When are security deposits required (high risk borrower?)? Has anyone else experienced this? Replies to this message: kyfdx (Oct 10, 2005 4:45 pm) bdr127 (Oct 11, 2005 5:15 am)

Replying to: therose400 (Oct 10, 2005 4:09 pm) Those are pretty much typical for any lease... Ford Credit is the only bank that hasn't historically had acquisition fees, and even they have them now... You may have been paying the fee, and not known it.. They probably just rolled it into the cap cost..   Security deposits are pretty much "di rigeur" as well.. Although not as omnipresent as acquisition fees.. Many lessors waive them for repeat customers, or in exchange for a higher money factor...   regards, kyfdx Host-Prices Paid Forums

Replying to: therose400 (Oct 10, 2005 4:09 pm) Like kyfdx said, those a pretty standard parts of a lease.... They aren't the "dealer" charging them, either. It's the bank (in this case, BMWFS).
