Maybe base service loaners will be around $500 plus tax. Like I’ve said before X5 continues to sell well. The plug in model in SoCal sells well, hence the reduction of the federal credit. As time goes by, there will be fewer to choose, so you risk odd colors combos, or heavily optioned cars. So BMW may add more incentives at the end but fewer choices. X5 without safety driving fractures would suck in my opinion, most other SUV’s have auto lane, active cruise etc. for the X5 you have to add other options to it which add up quickly. I bet the 2019 will have more standard safety options (guessing), but I predict a price increase as well, either flat out or with options required like the newer X3. Certain options on the X3 can’t be had without layers of options which add up Quickly.
I finally pulled the trigger on a mid optioned X5 s35i (msrp 64300 ish)
Dealers in So Cal were getting pretty aggressive at end of month.
I am sure if I waited longer I would of gotten a better deal but my other car was on the fritz…and I hate driving the wife’s Fiat.
msrp- 64320
sales price- 56950
incentives- 5000
-2k dealer
-1k loyalty
-1k sweepstakes/drive event
-1k bmwcc (I know it is a rebate but I added it in anyway, makes me feel better)
I got a 36/15 with drive offs that came to around 600 +tax and mid 600 with tax.
for a 36/10 you would of been 580/mo(ish) including tax (leasehackr score mid 9 ish…)
not bad but not incredible.
I was able to get auto nation to come down to this amount for a similar car and then sent out to multiple dealers who had a better car I wanted and Murrietta Dave matched the price for me.
Dave was great, I am sure the finance guy wasnt loving me though(didn’t even listen to the warranty speech).
LOL Dave said it was the quickest anyone ever came out of a finance office before.
thank you for all your help and good luck in all your searches!
mind pm’ing me the dealer?
Don’t see any sub 500 X5’s anytime soon with increasing rates and less incentives.
I think BMW learned their lessons of blow out leases…
I am sitting on an $88/month $0 DAS (after $1k BMWCCA) i3 BEV due in next month and very sad with current options.
BMW didn’t learn any lessons. For the tiny fraction of the buying public that got blowout deals, with being at the right place at the right time, and all stars aligning, there’s another majority of the buying public that got average/mediocre deals. Not everyone knows the ins and outs to get a blowout deal, and the members of this forum are a mere sliver of people leasing cars.
MAYBE on a low optioned loaner at the end of the year with the redesigned 19s coming around the corner. Otherwise, you’re most likely spot on.
I doubt there will be many deals on 2018 X5 due to not a huge supply and the new model being released will be X drive and will have a new base price of $60k. S drive will arrive a year later, plug in in 2020. So this will push many for the current model with a current level of discounts, as opposed to the new model with little to none incentives. Those with extra bucks to spend, the new one will be sweeeet. Beautiful interior.
