Replying to: vonrauss (Feb 10, 2007 11:05 am) I have been trying to establish relationships with internet departments, but my inquiries go no where. I get form emails back and little if any response to my follow-up emails. Is there any approach (or even specific dealership) that you can recommend me to here in So Cal? Thanks.

Replying to: toro1 (Feb 14, 2007 8:42 am) That being said, at the dealership where I ended up closing the deal I dealt almost exclusively over the phone. As long as you don't go in there an see them face-to-face, it shouldn't make that big of a difference when compared to e-mail. The main point is that you need to deal with the internet department only! So once you get that "generic" response with someone's name, call that person. I recommend using something like Autobytel.com to set up you initial inquiries... |

Replying to: smithsonga (Feb 11, 2007 1:36 pm) Where do you get this information from (if you are allowed to say). I just want to give the dealer a solid basis for wanting the mf above. I appreciate all of your assistance.

I got a final offer for 328i coupe (sports, power seats, metallic, bmw assist): MSRP: $40,490 Inv: $37870 ($37,310 orig. inv price + $380 MACO + $180 training fee) Is this normal to add the MACO advertising fee $380 and BMW training fee $180 to the invoice price? Selling price: $38,870 (not including acq. fee) Sales tax: 8.25% Terms: 36/12K Residual: 60% Money Factor: Didn't say but I calculated to be around 0.00145 Zero Down Zero deposit (current bmw customer) Lease payment: $535.38 (incldg tax) monthly Drive off in cash: $1800 (this includes acquisition fee $825 plus tax, tire fee $8.75, doc fee $45, 1st payment $535.38, and registration fee $318). They are charging me $825 instead of the normal $625 for the acq. fee. What do you think? $535.38/mth and $1800 drive off cash??? Can I negotiate further? NEED ANSWER ASAP! Thank you! |

Replying to: bmwfan07 (Feb 15, 2007 12:37 pm) To give you an idea, I bought a 328i sedan fully loaded (Premium, Navi, Xenons, etc) and put significantly less down, and my monthly payment is less than your's.

Replying to: vonrauss (Feb 15, 2007 12:58 pm) Thanks for your comment! I read your success story and have a few questions. 1) When you said Total Drive-off fee ~$870, was that a check/cash you paid that day? What did it comprise? First month payment and registration fee? 2) All the fees you listed: the Acq. fee, Doc, DMV, and Tires, which was a total of $1023. Was it rolled into your monthly lease payment? 3) Your cap cost $38700, this was base cap cost, right? Not adjusted cap cost? 4) What kind of hidden fees will they throw in? and WHERE can you find them in your lease agreement? Thanks! p.s. the car I want is kind of rare (because of the options I pick..leatherette but with power seats n bwm assist n sports) so not many dealerships have those. |
