Ask a dealer

ncarter124 · 03-28-2010, 09:51 PM

Sorry if there is an answer for this already, but I tried searching. Do you have to pay tax before doing ED? Or can you just pay it when you get the car back and take it to the DMV to register it? I typically like to pay it at the DMV because financing tax is kind of dumb ya know?

The short answer is yes, you'll pay taxes before you go. The only real way around around is to put money down to cover the tax

Dave, can you please confirm the $750 dealer incentive still in effect now for in-stock 2010 models, alongside with the Spring Drive credit?

If that's the case, I guess it'd be essentially a $2250 incentive for in-stock 2010 1's from BMW...

Thanks.

If I ordered a EU & PCD from you, would it be possible to to return a lease 3 or 4 months early?

eleven11 · 04-30-2010, 08:41 PM

Can any dealer please give me an idea of a good price for wheel/tire insurance (BMW "Ultimate Protection Program"). The off-the-top of his head number my agent gave me was higher than I was expecting (>50% more than it was 3 years ago). PM or post here, if possible. Thanks.

We'll know something here in a day or two... I expect 2010 things to stay around, not expecting much change for 2011's

depending the term you choose, I believe the cost range is from about $1200- $1500 or so. There really is not much mark up in it, maybe a couple hundred bux.

eleven11 · 05-01-2010, 07:12 PM

Thanks. Well, 3 years ago, 3 years of coverage was only $500. Now it's over $800. Not cool.

m_thompson · 05-02-2010, 07:15 AM

Last year I paid $500 for 5 years of wheel/tire insurance through the dealer. This was not provided by BMW.

let me ask you. I guess wear &tear insurance only cover your pay off if you return your lease?

If you want to keep it, would tire insurance replace all 4 tires free on m3, and what is the criteria?

My policy is for accidental damag only, pot hole, nail, etc. It does not cover normal wear.

m thompson, you have a pm

Then no need! I thought some one who owned a mini mentioned Wear n Tear Tire insurance.

ES BMW · 05-21-2010, 10:45 AM

Does anyone know if the rear-mount bike rack factory prep option is still available for a 135i coupe?

SA 3AR

I've seen the dealer installed kit on a 135i convertible but the plugs look pretty bad as opposed to the factory option.

I'm getting mixed responses from the CA's that I've talked to.

Thanks!

BrokenVert · 05-21-2010, 10:50 AM

Dbtheo. Are you guys a Dinan dealer? Mine said something very odd to me about warranties and I'd like to check with another dealer. Thanks

Roger135i · 05-24-2010, 04:27 PM

Does anyone know if I can mount a 245 40R 18 tire on my 135i? The recommended size is 245 35R 18. Also, does anyone have experience with Toyo Proxes 4 tires? Thanks!

No we aren't here, the only local dealer I know of that offers Dinan, is BMW Cleveland. What was the comment about warranties?
