What happened to the Crossfire? You can pickup a Limited convertible for $30K, right now.. regards, kyfdx Host-Prices Paid Forums kyfdx |

Replying to: tedium (Nov 18, 2005 2:59 pm)  $39k. I'm leaning toward the Crossfire, but unsure of the Chrysler/Mercedes QT vs BMW's. The XF has tremendous pwr, and is surely a true roadster! Problem is the stiffer ride vs. the Z4. If I want to go on a long trip there is NO way that I could do it the XF. The Z4 gives up around 100hp + the true feeling of a roadster. I have a dilemma. The new '06 Z4 will add an additional 30hp, but the deals on the '05's will be hard to beat!

Replying to: kyfdx (Nov 18, 2005 7:07 pm) $32,441. I've considered the two, and the compromise is there. That's a $7.5k diff. Considering that the LTD Roadster has as much horsies as the Z4 3.0, it might be the deal breaker. What is your opinion on the QC of Chrysler vs BMW? Also, what about the resale value in 4-5 years, respectively? I'm also nervous that Chrysler is going to lower the MSRP on the '06's, which might be a breakeven in the savings dept- all things being equal. If the sticker is $3-5K less( LTD-SRT since there is too much $ in the car from the start in '05 models), and you deduct for the model year+rebates, you might be better off waiting? Newer model, same $ or close to it. Maybe $3-5k more for the '06's vs same model '05's!? Any news on '06 pricing? I gave you the link to the BMW '06 pricing above in previous post. Thanks! P.S. Could one put softer tires on the SRT6 to compensate for the stiff ride if I go on a long trip-say 1k miles(RT 2k)? Those Michelins are almost flat! They have the Continentals on the LTD that are softer do to the size etc. There is also a que. as to liability for changing out the tires I believe(?), if one gets in an accidente. I need to check this out...

Replying to: xfire (Nov 18, 2005 7:58 pm) Resale is obviously on the side of BMW.... Quality is hard to say... Both cars seem to have a lot of little niggling quality issues.... However, you won't pay for maintenance on the BMW for four years.. But, neither of these cars is overwhelmingly popular right now... resale is going to be a crapshoot... That said, I'd rather buy the current model at an $8K-$10K discount, than wait for a new one.. regards, kyfdx Host-Prices Paid Forums |

Replying to: xfire (Nov 18, 2005 6:12 pm) According to that article, BMW has only released the prices in Euros. If that's the case, then that would be the European price. Prices in Europe are not always the same when the vehicles are brought over to this side of the pond... I'd wait to see what BMWNA says about actual US prices.

i got this deal bright red z4 2.5 manual with all the options including prem and sport packages except navigation system. msrp 43170 inv 39525 tmv 38062 my deal 36000. inv price - 3500. Looks like a decent deal. I've not bought this yet. And there are 300+ miles on the car from test driving. Is that normal or a little bit too much?? also, can i find some sort of list on what to check before taking the car home. Or can some one advise me on that. Any suggestions are welcome. I'm really tensed and excited as this is a big purchase for me and i do not want to take chances  And i observed from the on board computer there is mileage of 15.8mpg for previous 100 miles or so. Is that normal or is it because it might have been used for test drives?
