Have a 2008 135i now - the stereo really stinks IMHO.
Cant wait to pick up car. Black with sand beige interior. Planning 2-week driving trip up east coast in late September. Gonna see what kind of mileage I can eek out of that turbo diesel.
Happy trails!
Okay deal? Too late now.

I came to know about the navigation credit last night. I am not an existing BMW customer, so I will not get the $1000/- credit for that.
I am PENFEd memeber , i will check out their car buyign program.
I will keep the form updated with my progress.
Will have test drive this week end.
$1500 build out incentive/allowance for 2012 BMW.
I am in northern ca and wanted to know the dealer you are working with?
There is 1730 credit for Navigation and you can get 1000 if you participate in BMW test drive at a participating dealer
I am now working on a deal that a dealer that is already offering you $500 over invoice on X5 with options....how do you get the nav incentive, the BMW owner incentive (I may trade-in my 2007 X5) ....and I am Amex cardholder
you should go to this amex car buying service (as long as you're an amex member which is pretty much everyone nowadays) and price it out yourself.
http://amexnetwork.zag.com/main.html
Essentially, I priced my X5 Premium with the following options.
3rd Row Seat (4UB)
Cold Weather Pkg (ZVW)
Comfort Access Keyless Entry (322)
Convenience Pkg (ACV)
Running Boards (328)
Invoice: $51,870 (incld'ing Dest Charge)
Options: $2690
Total: $57,560
MSRP: $55,675
Options: $6,250
Total: $61,925
Your Price (going thru the Amex Program)
Base: $51,362
Options: $5,690 (as you can see thru the pgm, you should pay invoice price)
Incentives: Loyalty & Navi Option Credit: $2730
Your Cost: $54,322
So in short, you should be at least getting $7500 off msrp.
I was just in the dealership today for a test drive and walked away extremely impress with the ride. Beats the crap out of my ML.
However, my experience with the dealer was as smooth b/c he wasn't that up front/honest. I was offered $57,400 net of the incentives. I question about what was included and the guy said everything that is available. Then I ask for the itemized amounts. He then went to his mgr and came back saying that I should be eligible for the loyalty incentive. That was strike 1. 2nd strike came when I pull out this amex printout with the $54,322 price. He then said that there was a $1000 difference due to for some reason the site (amex) didn't include the comfort access keyless entry option. I was scratching my head for some time and just trusted him. In the end, he wasn't willing to go below $56,400 as he didn't want to lose out on his cut ($750). Not sure if that is really the case but doubt it. I walked. Unconvinced, I went back to the Amex site and rebuild the X5. Little did I know, if you select the Convenience Pkg, the comfort access keyless entry is included for the grand price of msrp $3,500. So he was trying to slip one in. I'm in discussion with another dealer in hopes which is willing to give it to me for that price. And finally, strike 3 came when I ask the dealer (the dealership has a sign that says they'll match the price of any BMW dealer as long as it's in writing) if the dealership was going to match the offer if I have it in writing and that it eats into his $750. He said NO. Sorry for this never ending paragraph.
Sorry but I forgot to reply to your org inquiry.
The nav incentive $1730 is really automatic. Just add the convenience pkg and the credit should be taken off net of your final amt - that is if your dealer is honest b/c mine first one wasn't. The BMW loyalty incentive is somewhat automatic. I would go to the amex site i posted earlier and price out your SUV and bring in the printout but don't show it right off the bat rather flip it out when he/she gives you the final amt. This way, it'll give you an indicator whether that person is honest of just taking you for a ride. Hope this helps..
Drove a 35d (2011) and a X5 Premium.
Liked the Premium. Deisel was littel more engine noise, felt needed a push in the begining.
Any how, Delar ready to offer at the Invoice price, no haggle yet. Told them will be back after test driving the Audi & Lexus.
Lexus GX felt like glorified truck. Audi Q5 with V4 was not that exciting, but the slaes man claims he is selling thme like a hot cake. Q7 was little bigger, nothign different than the Q5 except size. Lexus and Audi can really refine interiors. Feeels like same interiors as five years ago.
I did try to use the Amex system about a year ago and they were no where near net invoice...I got a better direct dealer $500 over invoice deal myself. I guess things have changed with them? What about the incentive credits you mentioned? Does Amex address customer loyalty credit, nav credit, etc?. Thanks for offering your expertise and help. Ttopper.

The MSRP is $52000+. The quote I got from local dealers is nearly $50K, and they told me I could not get navigation incentive of $1730.
Why cannot I get the navigation incentive? I hear if you add navigation system, the incentive will be added automatically.
Can I get a better price? I hope to get $46K-47K,. thinking of contacting dealers in other areas, and have the car shipped. is it possible?
thanks
thanks
Also its good to list out your requirments and then come upm with a price you want to offer and negotiate from there. Do nto negotiate one item at time, it stresses you out and thats whay the dealer wants.
Truecar or Amex program can give you some price points negotiate.
The local best price I got from both truecar and Amex is 48200
But I did buy a ford fusion before with a price lower than the truecar best price, so I guess I could still get the price lower than 48200 based on my previous experience.
Wondering how much room is there to lower the price. I read stories on this webiste about buying x5 with prices much much lower than msrp. How did guys make it!?
What dealeship you used to get the deal.
I am looking for th esame configuration (almost) - would like to get to the dealer that can do it.
Best regards.

I am in NY, NJ, PA area.
The spread between MSRP and your purchase offer lokks really good by my area standards.
I am trying to buy 2012 X5 Diesel with Cold, Premium, Technology and Sport Activity packages + 20" Wheels and Premium Sound with Satellite radio andRunning Boards and BMW apps - comes out to $68,725MSRP - deducting ECO and NAV credits results $64,475 - I am trying to pay $60K, but so far no willing sellers.
It is too new -- so will wait a little - even BMW site does not have the BYO for 3.5D model
You can get the invoice price from Edmunds.com, so you can try to negotiate a markup with your dealers. I offered $1000 to them, they accepted, so simple.
2012 xDrive 35i +
navigation system
convenience package
Quote from the dealer is ~ $48,500 (including $1,000 loyalty and $1,730 Nav credit)
The invoice is $46,210 (base + Nav + convenience pkg - $1,730) therefore the markup seems to be: $48500 - 46210 +1000 = $3,290
Any feedback is welcome as it seems to me a bad deal. Tks.
if you get the invoice price of the car with options and then deduct the $1730 nav credit and $1000 loyalty credit that should be the price to look at and add the dealers necessary profit over invoice.
I think you can find a dealer who will do $500 to $800 over if you search....also try 1Click auto brokers in Centennial. Colo. Josh.....I live in Seattle and he can delivery through a local dealer all over U.S......
Does anyone know how long the loyalty and navigation credits are going to be offered by BMW?
Thanks...
Therefore I will explore the "remote" purchase venue. Tks.
2012 X5 35i
base model + convenience package + navigation system
$47,410.00+ fees
Is this a good price? Can I go any lower? I contacted several dealers in my area, and they all said they could not match the price.
I saw a post at other websites saying he just bought one:
x35i base model +
Navigation System +
Nevada Leather +
Convenience Package +
Heated Front Seats
and paid only 47677 + fees.
Thank you for your advice.
I am not sure where you discovered the 47677, and it is a better deal because the leather pkg alone is 1500+.
My invoice price got from Edmund is 47940. And the seller price is 47410. Why you say my price is 1200 or 2200 above invoice. Is there another invoice price out there? Where can I find it? Thank you
Is it a good price?
Take a look at truecar website for some interesting stats, e.g.
National Avg Paid: $47678 (MSRP $52075) with a "great price" of $47138
CONVENIENCE PACKAGE
ACTIVE VENTILATED SEAT PACKAGE
PREMIUM SOUND PACKAGE
RUNNING BOARDS
3RD ROW SEAT
MSRP: $65,175.00
Invoice: $60,540.00
got quote from several dealers at around 603xx with 1730 Nav. incentive.
However, one dealer quotes me 59,310.
Should 59,310 be reasonable or they just try to get me there?
60540 - 1730
and seems they charge 1500 above the invoice..
This is the Breakdown of the INVOICE from BMW the manufacture:
Base Model X5 $43,700
MAACO $450
Convenience Pacakage $1910
Navigation $1730
Destination $875
INVOICE $48,665
There is a Navigation Credit for $1730
My selling price is $47,410 plus fees.
I am asking for 47000 plus fees, but he said I have to pay MAACO - MAACO is BMW's advertising cost. MAACO is included on ALL new BMW's.
is that true?
thanks
