2017 BMW 340i Feedback Request

This is in GA but registered in SC. I sent them asking 12.6% discount, but they came back with higher fees and a maxed MF (I requested .00156)

This is for a new 2017.

IMF is the dealer fee, which is kinda weird?

How would I ask for lower MF, do you think they would even bother with more than 12.6% discount? These two and the dealer fee are what could make this better.

He keeps ignoring the X2 drive promotion as well…

Really high fees. Is this new or a loaner?

Brand new but leftover 2017.

Is this new or a retired loaner? seems like you’re getting 13% off, which is just okay if it’s a 2017 new. I’d push for at least 15% if new. Push for $47,000 pre-incentive selling price. Retired loaner should be closer to 20% and more, in some cases. Just ask for base, and if they push back say you have top tier credit. There’s no reason for them not to give. If they don’t, walk away. Fees are annoying. IF they are going to nickel and dime you all over, than not worth working with them.

I’ll phrase it as the fees are hurting this deal, I figured on a brand new 2018 7% was good, then 2017 12-14% would be decent discount.

I’d be shooting for 15% off on a leftover new 2017, after factoring in all the fees and before rebates. They’re adding in almost $1000 in doc and “IMF” fees.

In reality with those fees you’re only getting a 10.5% discount.

I was chasing new 2017s in the Northern VA area, and was getting about $49k selling price for a similar MSRP. Definitely felt they could do better. Dealers want to make deals this weekend so I’d say push for more on the selling price, base MF and lose the fees.

They would be taking in my 328 that has 2 payments of $500 left too. So they may be hurting me, I hate it when they want $100 for Nitrogen… like seriously…

Got back to me today, said the X2 event went to my last 2 payments since no more pull ahead program. Would not change money factor from .00192. So I guess that it.

On to the next one…don’t let them f you with the MF

Wow, this deal sucks. No longer surprising to see many dealers relying on consumer ignorance, inattentiveness or idiocy to make a deal. In the age of social media, greedy dealers eventually get called out.
