Long time lurker, first time poster
Got an offer for a 2016 X5 that has been used as a dealer Courtesy Vehicle and not sure if I should push harder for a better deal.
Specs:
2016 Black Sapphire Metallic 2016 BMW X5 xDrive35i
Black Dakota Leather
Fineline Pure Wood Trim
Cold Weather Package
Driver Assistance Package
Premium Package
Rear manual side window shades
The vehicle has a MSRP of $62,500 and ~1,400 miles on it. The dealer has made an initial offer of $55,600 + tax, title, etc...
Should I expect a better deal or is this similar to what others have seen?
Thanks for the help.

Your offer looks like it's $6,000+ under MSRP and I'm guessing about $3,000 below invoice.
I don't like the idea of buying loaners (dealers seem to want too much money for them). My sister just got a last year's Subaru demo and she paid too close to invoice I thought for a year old car.
But -- this one is low miles and is the "right" model year, being a 2016.
Looks good from here.
Welcome and thanks for unlurking.
Dunno - I usually do fifty cents a mile for a demo deduction, and that's only $700. If that was the offer, I'd go new. But the numbers seem quite a bit better in this case.
But sure, making a counter-offer doesn't cost anything.
If Steve's numbers are accurate (based on what you've told us), then it does look good.
If you cant afford new then 700$ -- $3000 less is really stupid :
I am going out to check a $100k, Porche 911 for $5k less ! LOL
This demo appears to be more like $6,000 less. 10% is not a bad "discount".
