128i Negotiating Info Required

Hey guys,

I think I finally succeeded in convincing my dad to get a new 128i.:biggrin:

We will be going to the stealership in a couple of weeks, and I was wondering how much can he negotiate below msrp. With the current situation I would expect to get a pretty great deal.

I don't know if this matters when it comes to negotiating, but he will be paying for the car in cash.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated :thumbup:

Thanks!

Make sure there are no excessive dealer fees. Some give you a great price off MSRP and then nickel and dime you back up with things like prep and excessive documentation fees. Good luck.

Here's mine.

When I got my GTI a few years back I did all my negotiating online. I went to edmunds.com and spec'd out the car I wanted then emailed it to a few dealerships. They responded with offers and I took the lowest and emailed it to the other dealerships to give them a chance to beat it. One did and that was that!

Thanks! I'll make sure that the dealer gives me a detailed break-down of all the charges.

Sweet ride BTW :thumbup:
