1. Invoice is an excellent starting point 2. 335's are available at 500-1000 over invoice anywhere 3. 135's are just ugly IMO (and to MANY others) - the ride and drive is similar to a Ford Mustang 4. lots of dealers have 135's on the lot that are NOT selling (too ugly, too rough, too crude and too close to a 335 in price) |

4. lots of dealers have 135's on the lot that are NOT selling (too ugly, too rough, too crude and too close to a 335 in price) We love dogs also, as an aside. Dealers are, by nature, lower than dogs in the food chain. They have something we hanker ... their vehicle. We have something they crave ... our dollars. Any dealer who says he's not willing to negotiate is a liar ... and on his way to losing his young franchise. Bart

| blov, dealers are worthless scum - all franchised dealers spend countless hours in weekly meetings on how best to screw the retail consumer. honesty is a foreign concept to them (all of them). | |

Replying to: drizzle10 (Mar 24, 2008 8:41 pm) As far as how much you will have to pay at lease signing to lease a BMW goes, I always advise consumers to pay as little as possible. It is not really a good idea to make a large capitalized cost reduction when leasing. Consumers who make one risk losing part or all of it if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. You would be better off not making any sort of cap cost reduction on your lease, even though it means that your monthly payment will be a little higher. All you have to pay at signing on a lease through BMW FS are your car's first month's payment, its $625 acquisition fee, a security deposit that's equivalent to your monthly payment rounded up to the nearest $50 increment, and any state taxes or fees. You can even roll the acquisition fee into your car's capitalized cost to make it part of your monthly payment if you want. Also, BMW FS will waive its security deposit requirement in exchange for an increase of .00015 in the money factor that's used to calculate your car's payment.

I love Dogs to. I'm also a dealer [salesperson] and I really don't appreciate being called a liar. You obviously have had a bad experience with someone buying a car. I'm sorry that's happened. Please don't paint us all with your giant brush. |
