Translation please!
Lesseee... that could be
A. Car has 4.735 MILLION miles ... but has a new engine
B. Has 4.735 MILLION miles on the "new engine"
C. Someone spent $4735 on the engine
D. Has 4735 miles on the new engine
I'm sure I could come up with more if I thought about it. If the answer is B, C, or D, then the question is: How many miles does the car have?
and the color is in pretty mint condition
Does that mean it is a Mint color? As in mint green? I gotta see pics of that!

Buying in VA is the same, but at least you get the whole car for which you are taxed.
I live in VA so I have to live with it. Perhaps it's better in IL.

I may wait to get the next car until i get that hideaway in wisconsin, and i can register it there.
I am about to purchase (in a week or so...) a new 2208 335i convertible some where in California. I am in the SF Bay but willing to go to the South if that would save a good chunk of $. Anyone has the current (June 2008) price for this car with similar options listed below? I hope the deal can be better than the one posted on Edmunds...
1) ZPP Premium Package
2) ZSP Sport Package
3) ZCW Cold Weather Package
4) A52 Space Gray Metallic
5) 205 Steptronic auto transmission
6) 2XA Sports leather steering wheel with paddle shifts
7) 322 Comfort Access with Comfort Loading...
8) 507 PArk Distance Control
9) Navigation System
10) iPod & USB adapter.
I think the MSRP is around $58,675 and the invoice is around $54,005. I can be flexible with the color... Just want to shop for the best current going price...
Many thanks!
Black Sapphire Metallic 335 Sedan
Terra with Dark burl interior
Premium package
Auto Trans
Sirius Satellite
MSRP: $44,620
Invoice: $41, 695 including Maco ($400) and Training ($180)
Selling Price/Cap Cost: $40, 995.
Lease Details:
Base MF + .00015 with $725 acquisition fees. I know I could have haggled a little bit more on the lease MF/acquisition fees, but decided to give in.
Note that these are pre June 1 prices as the car was already produced.
This deal was possible b'cos of the $1210 option credit for automatic transmission. I sent an email to all the dealers in Houston asking for a quote on a car with specific options. No one had the exact car I was looking for, but this was close. Advantage BMW in midtown also gave an offer of $500 over invoice (plus $1210 option credit) on any car in stock, but didn't have anything close to what I was looking for. The entire negotiation was done via emails (and took almost a week). My CA didn't even have my phone # until I went into place a deposit on the car.
I also got a quote for $700 over dealer cost for an ordered car from Momentum.

-How much?
-Is it from the factory?
-Does it apply to BMW 3 series coupe?
-Is it on top of the negotiated price with the dealers?
-When does it expire?
Thx!
$1210
It is from factory to the Dealer
It applies to all 3 series (including manual transmission)
It is some thing that you use in your negotiation with the dealer. Remember, this is a factory to dealer incentive, the dealer may or may not pass it on to you.
It applies to any car in stock or ordered by 6/30.

Just ordered 2008 335i sedan in CT with:
6 speed manual
metallic paint
premium package
sport package
cold weather package
navigation
ipod adapter
MSRP $48625
Got it for $44261 + tax, conveyance fee and new reg/plates which I felt was pretty good. Comes out to about $700 under invoice. Accounting for $1210 manufacturer to dealer insentive this leaves $500 profit in dealer's hands plus perhaps whatever they get for me financing thru BMW (by the way it is 3.9% for up to 60m, locked in as long as you order your car by June 30th)
Relatively uncomplicated transaction done by e-mail and in person putting two nearest dealers head to head competing for my business.
Hope this info helps everyone else looking for a new BMW
I am in the market to buy my first BMW and my budget is around or below 30K. I was thinking about getting a certified car from BMW to save all the hassle afterward (bad exp with Audi).
I checked with some dealers and I am able to find some cars in my price range. I am not able to decide should I go for 2006 330i or 2007 328i. This is what I am getting
2007 328i 15K mike => 29.5K + tax (prem) CPO
2006 330i 25k mile => 28K + tax (prem, xenon, prem sound) CPO
Can somebody please suggest me if this is a good price? Which option should I prefer. Both cars are 100K/6 yr warranty.
Thanks
Actually I was offered 30,500 for 328i but it was a list price and Sales guy told me that they can go down by 1000 if I am intested. Infact they have a really upgraded car with (prem, sports, hi-fi sound, xenon etc) and dealer was willing to give that for 32.5K (12K mile and certified).
I am still not sure about 330i or 328i. Do you know which should be the better option.
I haven't looked at the 330 as a comparison. My impression was that it had a larger engine and I didn't go any further.

$47195 - Sticker
$45250 - Negotiated price
$48850 out the door (Florida tax - 6%, Tag- 250, Dealer fee - 599 (no avoiding it)
Not that thrilled in light on the $1200 incentive mentioned above (or the 1.9 finance if true - I am at the 3.9)
Next, someone will post about it somewhere else saying they heard rates are dropping to 1.9 because they saw it posted here.
I guess BMW is losing money if they have to add incentives to sell cars at the same time the dollar has low value and would net them less money in Germany even if there were no incentives. They must just want to keep volume and market share at any cost.
I was a little bit worry about demos but the CPO made me feel better.
Thanks.
BMW will have to go lower to 0.9 maybe the month after....but at least for July enjoy the 1.9%!!!
I saw a very nice 335i form one place. The dealer charges the same model more than $5000.
Will all BMW dealers retrofit the oil cooler for the turbo now?
Thanks.
Do you mind sharing what kind of deal you are getting. I am getting 2007 335i with 13K miles with premium package for around 33K. Not sure if this is a good deal or not. What are you getting.
I will like to get contact information of your Eatontown salesman.
Also, I will like to know the lease numbers.
How can I receive that information.
Thanks and Regards,

I'm looking for auto 335i, can you please tell what dealer is the one with aero kit from? thanks
Things are definitely not too good. In Atlanta the biggest dealership, Global Imports, is running a "sale" event - all 3-series sedans at invoice pricing. With the way the economy and gas prices are lately, I doubt this would make much of a difference and help them boost sales.
Thx

Is there a package that I can buy to extend the "free" maintenance beyond the original 4-year warranty period?
Thanks.
You can buy an extension to the maintenance program to match the CPO limits... Figure around $1500..

Brake job? A brake job on my CR-V with new rotors is about $600.. Multiply that by at least 1.5 for a BMW..
Inspection II at 60K miles? Figure $600-$800 for that..
Oil service at 75K? $125, most likely..
Inspection I at 90K? Another $300..
If the car weren't CPO, I wouldn't buy the extended maintenance, as that would give you the option to go independent for your service... but, if your warranty is with the dealer, and you'll put 90K on the car, then I'd buy the maintenance pkg, as well..
It's a tough choice, though... $1500 is a lot.. I'm not sure I'm right.. just my opinion..

True enough
.Inspection II at 60K miles? Figure $600-$800 for that...
Swope only charged $424(including $42 the M1 0W-40 I provided). That price also included a brake fluid flush and repairing curb rash on the LF wheel.
Oil service at 75K? $125, most likely...
It could be less than $100- and under $55 if you spend 0.5 hours doing it yourself.
Inspection I at 90K? Another $300...
It could be under $250, depending on the car. I still think I'd self-insure rather than fork over $1500.

So seeing as the service package is fixed price, it's probably a good deal if the dealer you will be using is expensive.
I'm pretty sure that my dealer uses an outside contractor, but in any case the repair is completely undetectable.

Unfortunately, no details in the e-mail on which models and for how long the financing is good for... I'm sure it varies by model..
