2. i have a paid off trade in which is a acadia..is it smart to trade in acadia and use it to reduce capitilized cost?
3. see attachment if they give me close to kbb value..my lease payment would be around $110 with trade in..
4. if i put down 7 extra security deposits..would lower my payment to $80.00..so would my 7 security deposits be 110 x 7 = $770 extra
2) No, not smart..
3) No attachments here... But, I'd just take a check for my trade, and put minimal amount upfront.
4) MSDs are a good idea.... If your payment were actually $110, then the 7 deposits would add up to $1050 (7 X $150). I'd rather keep my money in the bank, and have a higher payment, though...

MSRP $62,525, final out of door price = ($53,740 + $95 doc/title + tax). Also got 0.9% finance for 36mth through BMW. Car needs to be ordered. Put down $1,000 non-refundable deposit and should have the car in 6-8 weeks.
I quoted 10 dealers within 200 miles and this deal is the best. It is basically (invoice - $3500 eco credit). And the dealer is very easy to work with.
Note that starting Oct 1, 2010, BMW has increased X5 MSRP by $500, which is NOT reflected by edmunds yet.
Hope this helps folks in the market.
My Dealer tried to add Doc fees of $499 after I agreed to pay $600 over invoice which included maco fees. I did not agree to bogus doc fee & left. ( wasted 2 hrs )
I hate to lose the whole deal but this was unacceptable bogus fee.
Now I lost $1000 in eco-credit but still this bogus fees by the dealer is crazy.
Many members here dont post the whole deal. :surprise:
Please post details with maco fees + any doc fees paid. This will help many who are looking to but this UDM.
Will try another dealer.
Thx
Here is my scenario...2008 Acadia paid off...trade in value of 28000.
Put Down 20000..making my lease payment $110 with the multiple security deposits..
Why is this a bad scenario? Thanks for your input
I was close to pulling the string on a new Audi and the dealer offered $25k trade in on a 2008 X5 3.0 (loaded and in MINT condition)! Research showed me $37k was reasonable. Needless to say I walked away
2011 35i SA + Mpackage + convenience + technlogy + multicontour seats + comfort keyless + premium hifi + heated front seats. MRSP $69025 (we ordered it before the $500 bump). Out the door price was $69282 including all the misc fees, floor mats and 6.25% sales tax.
I ordered mine at Bill Defouw BMW in Indiana
i live in indiana..can you let me know your salesman at defouw..im thinking of getting a bmw x5 either diesel or premium...
my email is boughman@sbcglobal.net
thanks

- $52,100 for 2011 X5 iDrive 35i Premium with option of multi-contour front seats, heated front seats, including $100 for the cargo cover which I can't really find from list of the options, the salesperson said this is additionally priced as an accessary; sales tax not included yet (7% in NJ);
- $2500 as deposit paid upfront;
- The car would be available in 2 weeks but they called me today it may not be available in 3-4 weeks;
- on top of above I will have to pay document fee $399, NJ license fee $389...
I found an invoice list somewhere on the web (unfortunately after we got our 2011 X5) but at least I know how much I paid over the invoice ...~$1200 which isn't horrible considering I just went to one sales-guy (who I could trust) since I didn't have time to shop-till-I-drop over ~$500! (time is $$$) So the INV. on Basic Premium is: $47,470, Multi-C.S.:$1185, and Heat-F.S.:$455. I didn't get the C.Cover either ($350 acces) but at least the s.guy thru-in all-weather floor mats, and I got the c.cover on ebay for $170.
USAA referred me to this dealership as thay have an arrangement on pricing.
USAA members pay invoice + their $499 doc fee. PLUS, Albany BMW is outside of the Atlanta BMW advertising region-- Meaning that there is no MACO fee on the invoice. Compared to the Atlanta based BMW dealership that also has the USAA affiliation, it was like buying the car for $400 BELOW INVOICE. Also, they apply the $3500 Eco Credit before tax is applied. So between the absent MACO $400 fee, the Eco Credit of $3500, and the federal tax credit of $1800, I will effectively be paying $5700 below invoice.
While I don't know for sure if Albany BMW will sell at invoice to everybody, the absence of the $400 MACO fee is a great savings all by itself. If you're buying from an Atlanta based BMW dealership, save yourself $400 and head to Albany, or better yet, take care of all the paperwork over the phone/internet and then go to Spartanburg to pick up your X5 at the factory.
I signed it on 10/18 and on that day they added $500 to MSRP that day meaning from $51600 to $52100 for the Premium, and I ended up paying $1500 above the new invoice price with option of Heated F.S. and multicontour F.S..
I didn't mention I trade in my 2007 Audi A4 Avant at 49k miles, they gave me $19000 for that.
I guess I am an idiot, but learning from you guys. Thanks.
I just bought a 2010 X5 35d and love it. The problem I have noticed is that there is a strong plastic burning odor coming out the right fender after it runs for a few miles. I could not detect that from the inside the car, but only smelled from the outside when I got out the vehicle, even I could see the smoke and felt heat on the fender, but I have not seen any fire and physical damage to the tubing, cables and metal parts. I have noticed twice. The first time was at about 100 mileage. I called the dealership who stated it is quiet common for a new car which burns chemicals used for making the car. Now the X5 has run slightly over 400 miles. Do you have seen the same problem and any suggestions. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

One more issue is that the warning sign shows up which is Top View Camera Malfunction. Any input and suggestion? Please help! Thanks in advance.
MSRP $61,775, final price is $53,921 + tax + $154 doc + $194 registration fee.
it's basically 2000 off the MSRP - $3500 Eco - $2500
Dealer has to order the car
Do you know how long it takes for delivery after ordering? I am hoping to buy the car by end of year to qualify for tax credit of $1,800.

$72 MSRP for $60,495 + $55 document fee, tax & registration -- Hard to believe, but I pick it up next week!
This is $5k under the dealer, who didn't have Heads Up, Premium Sound or the 3rd Row Seat. And we managed to avoid the running boards, which really are horrible if you're over 5' 10" (expecially when exiting the vehicle!).

This will be my first lease of a car of any kind, so any and all suggestions would be helpful. This price includes the 3500eco & 2500 holiday cash. I want the payment a little lower, or at least a significant decrease in drive off fee. There is also a 169 processing fee already included in 55,604. Is this deal terrible? Invoice on edmunds.com is 56,540.
I also decided to add in the technology package once the dealer said that they will buy my owners choice vehicle at lease end and was going to save roughly another almost 2k in sales tax.
Will post the final details once the order is placed and I receive the rest of the information. This will be my 5th BMW from same dealer and salesperson, and it makes a difference when you are able to call and not play games between dealers.
I have received quotes in NY and CT for 500 under invoice excluding the credit. So it would be 6k less than invoice even if they roll the MACO(adv fee) and training fees into the invoice.
You say that you are paying $55604-I believe you are being ripped off!
