135i question in Orange County - BMW 1 Series Coupe Forum / 1 Series Convertible Forum (1M / tii / 135i / 128i / Coupe / Cabrio / Hatchback) (BMW E82 E88 128i 130i 135i)

JustAnother1series · 04-21-2009, 02:28 AM

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forums. I currently drive a 2007 subaru wrx, want to sell it to get a 135i. But anyway, just wondering if anybody that lives in Orange County, which BMW dealership is the best to work with pricing or which has the best pricing for a 135i with no package. My credit is pretty bad since the economy is so horrible. And how much a month you are paying? Thanks for the help.

I ordered my car back in Dec of 08. I sent my email out to 5 dealers around my area (Cerritos). Crevier and Long Beach was the only 2 that wrote back, but Crevier could not give me the car for what I was asking. I end up going to Long Beach. I didn't email Irvine BMW since it was just too far. If your going to use the eamil method, email Will or Steve from Long Beach BMW.

How much did you get the 135i at long beach? And were you able to negotiate a good price with them? Also i heard Riverside BMW dealer is good...

lolo419 · 04-21-2009, 03:38 PM

my deal was $500 over invoice + MACO and training

, but this was back in Dec of 08... I'm sure you can get a better deal now.

You think its a good idea to just wait until the new models come out such as the 2009 and they get over stock with 2008's? And how much do you think the price will go down for the 08's once they get there 09's?

lolo419 · 04-21-2009, 07:36 PM

I think its a little to late to get left over 08 on the dealer lots (I might be wrong). MY 2009 were hitting the dealer lots in Dec of 2008. when i ordered in Dec of 08 it was already MY 2009. You can probability look on the dealers site for their inventory, maybe they still have some MY 2008 left on the lot (mostly auto + vert i would guess).

Will the dealership work with okay credit?

Walked into Crevier and spoke to Stephan Caraway, after taking a test drive we sat down and started talking about numbers. I told him I would not pay more than $500 over invoice. 5 minutes later we agreed on the price and everything was very smooth from there on out.

I would highly recommend Stephan.

I wish the internet department was that good

JustAnother1series · 04-22-2009, 07:29 AM

I know since the economy is doing so bad right now the car dealerships are having special deals, and basically doing everything they can to make you buy it with such a good price, is that true with BMW as well? And how much you pay a month?

Don't have the exact numbers, I am paying like $670ish a month. BMW is paying the first two months. I also got 2.9% APR which was the lowest at the time for the 1 series.

JustAnother1series · 04-22-2009, 03:55 PM

Damn thats a bit out of my budget, i was hoping to only pay 400$-450$ a month.

my car is fairly loaded, 41k out the door
