Guys need advice here.

I'm in Chicago area and so far my deal is invoice + DAG/MACO ($250) + profit ($1000) + tax + license ($143) + doc ($57.33). I was expecting to pay about $800 to $1000 over invoice but I missed the MACO part. Should MACO be part of the profit or cost for the dealer? So if I go with this am I really $1250 over invoice or $1000?

Thanks.

Fairly well loaded 330i:
Total cost including financing = $46,700-ish

330i
Euro Delivery
Monaco Blue Metallic
Black Leather
Silver Trim
Premium / Sport / Cold Packages
iDrive (I actually like it)
Sirius Radio
Park Distance Control
Trunk Tray / Floor Mats
Aluminum Sport Pedals
-------------------------
$42,155 (delivery incl)

Tax = $2740
Title + Licence = about $100
No additional fees (MACO, etc)
Downpayment = $500

Essentially, about $2125 off MSRP on top of the ED discount.

Really, I got $800 off MSRP, Free alum pedals, trunk tray and floormats. Then the dealer "bought down" the rate from the 2.9% March special to 1.9%, thus saving me another $1175 on financing charges.

Granted, with the Euro Delivery trip (2 weeks in Italy), I'll spend another $5000 on the trip and souvenirs.

330i

Sapphire Black w/Terra
Sport
Premium
Step
Cold Weather
Sat Prep
Summer and winter floor mats included

MSRP 43,920
Invoice 40,255
Paid 41,390

According to Edmunds people are paying 42,095 in my area without floor mats.

I am happy with it. It all depends on where you live to get a deal. Some areas have more inventory than others and some can't keep 3's in stock at all.

The car has a build date within 7 days according to the dealer.

[luckystrike]

[zamboni]

That had to be their first offer.

Tell them the 2007s will be coming out soon.


$37,780-$38,280 would be a good price ($500-$1,000 over INVOICE).

Work from DEALER INVOICE UP!

Also, consider heated seats for $455.

I like your options.

Also, get them to throw in floor mats, key chains, valve stem covers and a full tank of gas.

I wouldn't go over $39,000 ($39,500 if I had to) with the heated seats and throw ins.

Gook Luck!

Let us know how you make out.

Hello Everyone.
I have finally joined the ranks of BMW drivers. Here is my deal.

330i 6 spd Manual
Alpine White w/Black Interior and Aluminum trim

Sport Pkg
Premium Pkg
Navigation
Heated Seats
Comfort Access

36month lease/10k mi. $504 per month with taxes and fees upfront - total of about $3300.

I am paying $1500 over invoice. Let me first thank this board for all the advice and useful resources. In the NY/LI area it was a battle to even get the $1500 over invoice price.
They have ordered the car which has a build completion date of April 21st.

I am coming from a Lexus IS300 5spd w/Nav (my favorite car of all time) and can't wait to see how the Bimmer matches up. I actually had a deposit down on an IS250 special order 5spd w/Nav - but the dealership started dicking around on the price and when all was said and done, the Lexus was going to end up running me the identical price of the Bimmer and the Bimmer retails for around $7k more than the Lexus. Talk about a no-brainer.

That's my story - I look forward to participating on the boards and will certainly post pics once my car comes in - hopefully by mid-May!
Thanks
Ian

Is everyone here paying an acquisition fee? I hear it's pretty tough to get around? Does it apply to leased vehicles only?

Thanks.
