I found this forum years ago but never signed up until now. Anyway, looking to lease an electric SUV and the iX seems like a pretty good deal from what I have read.
Term: 36 mos
Mileage: 10k
I also have not gotten confirmation on what the MF is yet but I plugged in the value into the calculator and received the proper payment, so I assume that’s what they are charging me.
The Stargard item is some kind of gps tracking they add to all their cars apparently. Not sure if this part matters but it has the following extras: Convenience, Driving Assist Pro, 2 axle air suspension and multi function massage seats.
Unfortunately, I got what I believe is a fairly subpar offer from the dealer but wanted to confirm and ask for negotiation strategies based on the deal they gave me. For example, would it be better to try to ask for a larger MSRP discount or lower the money factor? Maybe it doesn’t matter, just looking for advice. Thanks!
Dealership online buying is just dealership online lead generation. Sign up for a supporter account and look in the marketplace/use search to look up other deals on the iX. Use that info to create a target deal you send to the dealer.
You need to drive the negotiation, not the dealer.
I guess I’m going to be slightly contrarian and say 9% off with base MF is not a weak offer at all. This is a pretty loaded iX so even 11% is going to be 1k+ payment with WA (Clark County?) sales tax.
10 percent off plus incentives seems to be standard now. Getting that without using a broker is pretty good. I’d be surprised if the dealer discounted any more but maybe you can squeeze 1 percent more.
You may have missed the boat on these. The pricing was much more aggressive in December if I remember correctly. I think BMW has pulled back on the programs since December. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong.
So, if you’re expecting the kind of numbers that you saw on deals posted from December that may not be realistic.
Getting 8-10% off MSRP + $9900 capital reduction is pretty much in line with the best dealer that brokers can get you nowadays. You can try to wait to get closer to 10% if you feel passionate about it. But it honestly doesn’t look like a bad deal to me.
