You didn't mention the first 2 payments are made by bmw -- on website. Also you need to check what's not covered by cpo. A big one is brakes- so make sure you know what's left when you buy.

Replying to: jayrider (Jan 03, 2009 10:14 am) Dealer suggested bringing in car for "pre -pre- inspection in early February while still under lease to see what needs to be done, if anything so I won't have to pay for it. He gave me the papers for what is covered CPO -- will re-examine then again. Also said I could get a "maintenance" contract for an additional 1895. Not sure I want to do that. I will take advantage of your offer to contact you end of February for latest auction #s. In the meantime, have looked for 06 wagons on the internet and $29k is the low end CPO, except for a car down in Miami for 27,595 but that car has 40K miles. NYC BMW has almost my identical car, close mileage for $28,900 so no much difference. Others are in the 30's. I will contact you in February before I go back to the dealer. My lease in up March 6. Thanks for all your help.

Replying to: jayrider (Jan 03, 2009 12:16 pm) I already told this dealer that I would walk away if the deal wasn't good as I have 2 other cars and either would keep them or get a honda. Didn't faze them. THey said check back with them in February. So I will and thank you.

Jayrider, what do you think of this deal: 2007 530i with 28K miles, one owner. Warranty runs Aug. 2012. (Aug. 2010 on the service warranty). Vehicle has all pkgs (sports, premium, cold and 1more I can't remember), NAV, premium sound, many other things, dealer called it "loaded". They are asking $34,900 for it, and the sales girl said they would negotiate. Also has tinted windows (after-market) which they offered to remove no charge. Since the car is black/black, it's a little too dark. I'm reading what you are saying about the market, and thinking maybe I let them sit on the car and wait it out, but the car is beautiful, I hate to lose out. It's been on the lot for about 3 to 4 weeks now. I'm trading in a 1996 328i with 106K miles on it. Don't have a clue what they'd offer me for the car. Then there's another dealer with a 2007 530XI, 18K miles, white/beige, sports and premium pkgs only, he wants $36,900 firm. He calls that price "competitive." I don't know that they'll move on it, yet I'm attracted to the warranty on that vehicle which runs until Apr 2014 since the car didn't go into service until Apr 2008 for some reason. His position is that since his vehicle has AWD it's worth the extra. I couldn't care less about the AWD. What do you think, any advice.? I'm holding off and waiting. I figure who's looking for a new car in early January. thanks Jayrider. Gardis in CT gardis72  gmail.com
