If you work for a large corporation the its likely they will be part of the BMW corporate program. You dont need to buy the car through work, just prove that your an employee and you will get the discount. I think it was around 5% which is pretty substantial. I think you could knock them down at least 5% (even without the corp discount) so make sure you shop around.

One other tip - try, try try, beg borrow or steal, get the 135. By the time you consider mods costs to a 125 - chips, exhaust etc etc (and the lost warranty issues) you are half way to bridging that gap anyway. For the extra $10k get the 135 or buy a demo / used car with up to 5000 kms on it.

The 125 is a great car but the 135 is really much better value - even though its more expensive.

Good luck and shop around.
