My first BMW! Did I get a good deal?

Jsquared83 · 06-18-2006, 05:52 PM

Hi everyone, going to pick up my brand new 2006 325i on wednesday 6/21. It's jet black, black leather (premium package), auto, heated front seats and satellite prep. MSRP is $36345 and invoice is around $333xx I believe. I offered 34k even and they jumped on it. Being its almost 2500 under sticker, it seems pretty darn good to me

... what do you guys think? Thanks.

that is a good deal. You did great! Congrats on ur new car.

David328M-Sport · 06-18-2006, 05:57 PM

Congrats. No matter how well you did, the dealer also did well.
You now own a great car.
Enjoy.

Jay_328 · 06-18-2006, 06:01 PM

Congrats! Since you are a newbie, I won't rag on you for not getting a stick with Sports Package!

...I could have ... but I won't!

Enjoy your new Bimmer!

$500 over invoice is a good deal for a great car....I gather this was a vehicle from dealer's inventory, even though someone I know did the same for an ordered 325i in Sept 2005.

ZuerstBMW · 06-18-2006, 09:15 PM

Congrats!!! Great deal. Is that 34,000 before or after taxes?

I can't even get $1,000 over invoice. One particular prick salesman said, "Oh, you want a discount? (after showing the MSRP price)." I then indicated I did want a discount, $1,000 over invoice. He came back with fabricated invoice numbers, $1350 profit, $125 floor mats, and ~$150 dealer service fees.

You must be better looking than me.
