BMW New Car Programs (and Retired Loaners with < 5k miles) - UPDATED 5/8/2019

He is saying regional, said his sheet shows 750… part of me thinks they just don’t want to redo the paper work. I’m out of state and they are overnight paperwork that should be here tomorrow.

We’re at $750 in Nor-Cal. The $1,500 must be a So-Cal thing. :disappointed_relieved:

Thanks for confirming @GAngellBMW! And there you have it @Driving0. You can proceed with confidence. :wink:

I saw 1.5k loyalty advertised by a dealer in DC area. I even posted it yesterday somewhere.

For all the lurkers…please do not email me asking for any deal under $200/mo or even under $300/mo when you have no BMW in the household and no Corporate Fleet and no eligibility for recent college grade rebate. The unicorn deals that you see on these forums, that you want and are asking for, are established by very heavy discounts as well as maximizing the factory incentives that are available. I’m not trying to be rude but when I get tons of PM’s and emails like this one (which was real)…

Do you have anything (Used or New ) available around less than 200/month with least possible down payment.

…it takes time away from real inquiries from people that have read my profile and know what info I need from them and are still waiting for a response on an actual in-stock car that they are interested in taking home today.

This is also me apologizing for not getting back to everyone that has not heard from me yet. With my kids having been sick and then having a couple days off, I’m about 4-5 days behind on emails and PM’s so don’t think that I’ve forgotten about you. It’s just that when I read that email I had to take a minute to remind folks that I’m here to help - and to get great deals with little-to-no negotiation - but I still only get paid on sales and we can save each other valuable time if you do some of the work on your own…and come in with realistic expectations, not just a request to match the greatest hack-deal ever recorded.

I’ll be back on it tomorrow. Good night all!

@Ursus had posted the info here on this thread

From BMW of Alexandria’s website
THE ADVERTISED PRICE INCLUDES ALL BMW NA/F.S. INCENTIVES/REBATES. CURRENT BMW OWNERS GET AN ADDITIONAL LOYALTY CREDIT OF $1500 ON THIS VEHICLE WHEN FINANCED-LEASED W/ BMW F.S.

Hmm, it wouldn’t happen to be this guy? :thinking:

Super annoying, @bmw_dave. Especially when there are so many proper examples of what’s feasible, what kinds of discounts and incentives it requires, and tons of deal analysis from the experienced folks here.

We find and get amazing deals but they live in the realm of reason…usually…the $110/mo 330e excepted. Which is of course the only deal people from the outside will focus on…

How come there are no deals on the 530e? It looks like they keep most of hte tax credit?

Can you apply corporate fleet incentive on a 2017 CPO purchase? sorry it’s not direclty lease related?

No not me , and I have a fleet discount !

Did you get your car in the end? Would be nice if you kept us posted after all the questions you asked here.

Not yet @Ursus. Battling flu on the home front, and could not take the time to go see dealers.

Have an offer on paper for X1 in the range of $350-$360 on a ~45,000 MSRP with 17% discount plus 3k incentive. Trying to negotiate further.

Per my calculations anything in the range of $321-$337 should be possible in VA.

Going to see 2 dealers today. Hoping to close on something…

Will update once i get back later today.

They fully expect people to lease it. People who focus only on a lower monthly payment and are absolutely in love with the car. Can’t stomach (or afford) a large down payment to get an affordable monthly finance rate. It’s a license to print money. Who cares if it’s $700 a month lease, at least it isn’t $1200 a month finance with zero down is how not so financially literate people look at it.

Generally no. There may still be a rebate from BMWCCA if you’ve been a member at least a year.

Nvm, figured it out. Ty

I’ve been seeing some posts that mention conquest cash, but haven’t been able to find any definitive info on it. Anyone able to confirm?

Posting my deal details here as well. Thought it might benefit folks looking for deals in Northern Virginia.

2017 BMW 330i xDrive: $266/m. Term: 36/10

Was able to get a big discount on the MSRP. And, had to negotiate to get use buy rate of 0.00152 to get this deal. Dealer did try to make MF 0.00172. (I asked them to hold the car on Feb 28th, so they gave me that rate. For March they are doing 0.00156). 24 months was coming up higher, so had to take 36 months.

I did not know how to use basis points or structure one time payment deal, so did not try. But have a feeling it could have shaved few more dollars.

MSRP: [$50495]
Selling Price: [$36,490] (28% off MSRP)
Rebates: [$3000]
MF: [.00152]
Residual: [61]

Leasehackr Score: [15.3] (made minor adjustments as they exactly did not tally)

PM me if you are looking for deals in Northern Virginia. Happy to share details and give back to this community.

Special Note:
Big thanks to @BMW_Dave for posting the incentives sheet for Feb/March.

Background
Started hunting in late December and went after a C300 deal @HN308 posted. That did not work out, as the dealer did not play ball. After a bit of sabbatical I started looking again in mid Feb. Special thanks to @Ursus and @mripguru for their advise - focussed on bmw loaners eligible for incentives.

Should say that it took me about 8-10 hours of total time to browse, scan, make notes and PM’ing few folks. Spent another 4-5 hours looking for loaner cars at different dealerships, emailing them et all. Spoke to only 2 in the end. If the dealer was not willing to go down on the MSRP, then, i just moved on.

So, a good 16 hours or 2 business days is what it took to get this deal, which i am personally very happy with. Especially for a first time hacker. I have a feeling, i might to this again; and in fact have already started helping friends and identified cars for them in the process! (PS: If anyone is looking for an Outback Ltd, let me know, i can refer with a lease work sheet).

But, one thing I recognize now. There is a lot of room for negotiation, once you are sitting in front of the right finance guy. You can start playing around with numbers and try different combinations. This might take an hour or more at the dealership, but, is useful.

So, walking into the dealership after you have identified who to work with, even to negotiate, (and not necessarily to buy) might be a good idea. You might just end up getting the deal you were looking for. My 2 cents.

Dealer did not seem to know of any conquest deals, beyond incentives listed on this thread. He was using same or similar sheet. The only difference was the MF rate hike change to 0.00156

Thanks for the reply! Could you pm dealer and CA info? If I could replicate or come close to this deal I would make the trip to VA or ship to CT
