I just closed a deal for 2006 BMW 325i with Automatic Transmission, Premium Package and Metallic Arctic color. I got the following offer
MSRP - $35645
Invoice - $32730
I Paid - $33800
I believe the deal seems ok and I did not do much negotiation. Great Service at Norwood BMW gallery in MA.
I'd planned to do EU if we went for this car - this kind of deal makes me think twice. I can tell you no dealer within 400 miles of me would go anywhere near the numbers you got.
MSRP=$44,295
edmunds invoice=$40,600
Selling=$42,395 and he threw in the mats.
I'd like to hear current best deals on 325CIC's.
What is MSRP and options?
Or is he offering that in general as opposed to a specific car?
Best I got was $900 above with .0029 MF. There stating that .0025 is there borrowing rate and that it would not be fair for them to go down below .0029 (6.9 apr), or raise the selling price by $500.
After that silly rant I quit corresponding.

At the same time, I am adding in a lease on a 2005 X3. There's been some movement on the part of one dealer over the other on that front: 39/15K lease, Cold Weather, Premium, Nav., Sat., xenons, heated steering wheel, some other non-sense ... $328/month versus $382/month with same money down (@$5K). My point being: in the two-vehicle situation, the dealers seem to fudge the #s on the now year-old X3, but seem unwilling to move at all on the 330. Can I do better in NY or CT?
A friend of mine is looking for a new last generation 330 sedan. We are in Northern CA. The reason she is looking for the last year model is because she didn't like the rear end of the current model. While you guys are shopping, did you guys see if there are any new 330 or 325 (old model) in the lot? I appreciate your response even if you are not in CA because we like to know if there are leftovers in
other region as well.

(By the way, xenons are standard on the 330.)
when i was shopping around for my e90 330 i noticed that the two dealers down in orange county had a few of the old generation.
they were sterling bmw as well as crevier bmw.

If you drive in winter weather, you will have to change tires...

I've concluded the simplest thing to do is obtain a second set of tires (winter) and rims (17s) and swap them out. I assume, though, this will call for regular tires (is there such a thing as run-flat winter tires??) And with reg. tires, it's a wee unnerving to be riding around without a spare (no room in the trunk for one).
One dealer tells me he believes BMW will discontinue the run-flats in the '07 model year. Anyone hear something like that before?
I bought a Nokian tire that is a 4-season tire but has the mountain/snowflake symbol. I believe they are the only tire of that kind. Most snowflake/mountain tires are gonna be crappy when the roads are dry. Less of a tradeoff with the Nokian. I have a Volvo xc90 and I keep the Nokian on from Thanksgiving to Easter, and then I swap them out. You get a little more crummy weather than I do (SF Bay Area) in the winter, but mostly we drive in similar conditions. It's not like you live in New Hampshire and need deadicated snowies. My Volvo rocks with the Nokians - I had no worries in the Sierra in the snow and they were fine back in the lowlands in rain or dry.

Fremont is only 20 miles away. If I buy it there, will the local dealers have any problems servicing my car?
Or do I typically bother the salesguy I bought it from for issues?
This was a couple of months ago, right after they did all the dealer incentives which took off like $4200 off the bat on the old 330i sedans.
I actually spoke with a salesperson at BMW Fremont this morning. He gave me an offer for 2006 330i, I'm looking forward to hearing from you this Saturday again!
That makes your effective price, just $1000 under MSRP.. I'd like to think that you could get another $1K-$2K less..
You might also ask about the in-service date, and whether the car has been marked as a demo... Chances are, they marked it sold on May 31st, when the incentives expired.
Nice car.. and if you don't care about getting a new one, I'd try to make a deal.. Just at a little lower number..
