Fully loaded 2011 135i (minus convenience) MSRP 46525, have an offer at 43,290 -- thinking about going for it, trying to get dealer down to 42,290... Thoughts?

It includes, sounds, sat, and nav (plus m-sport, cold weather, and premium).

There isn't as much margin as you'd like for what you're offering...

No profit for dealer. Why would they sell at even at your first offer???? Value package is included making it a sellable car for the dealership.

There is a 1000 cash option, which still means they are getting 1400 above invoice at that.

God forbid they make some profit right?

There really isn't as much profit as you think.

God forbid I spend the least amount that I need too?

The car is a year old, right? 2012's are being built currently, or at least fairly soon. The bottom line is always, it is a good deal if YOU it is a good deal!

The truth is simple. Will the dealer accept your first offer??? If yes then congrats. Second deal. If they go for it tip a few for them.
