Off Topic Landfill

I’m looking to get a 5 series within the next two-three weeks as my 3 series lease is ending up. Can you please tell me what the best absolute deal would be on a 5 series? I don’t want any payments over $470-480 tax included. I do qualify for BMW Loyalty and work at Bank of America corporate and have a Costco membership. Please text me me via email: armanboranyan@gmail.com if you can find a deal for me.

I’m open to loaner and demo cars

Even demo and loaners I’m open too!

Hey, aronchi.

I work with Infiniti fleet and I can delivery to ct. if your would like to do deals together that you not able to do on your own or maybe cuz specific car not In stock or whatever case is.

I get approvals on spot and devlivery of contract for very next day.

No problem

To help you hammer those deals, sales figures for BMW for October:

“There’s no question the U.S. is becoming a tougher sales market, so for BMW to mark 12 straight months of sales gains in the U.S. is a solid accomplishment,” said Bernhard Kuhnt, President and CEO, BMW of North America. “With only two months remaining in the year, November is important for BMW as the all-new and much anticipated X5 will go on sale, joining the very popular X3 in the marketplace.”

Interesting…fail to see how this helps anyone hammer out a deal though.

Interesting. I can see how this info may suggest that BMW might increase incentives in December to ensure a year over year sales increase. But who knows with BMW - note that Mini sales have dropped like a rock – yet BMWFS ended lease support for 2018 Minis in November, which is nuts b/c lots of 2018s still on the lot.

That’s what everyone hope is, so when you get a quote which you don’t like - you can respond with “Ok, I will talk to you in December” :slight_smile:

You also run the risk of nothing changing, or even getting worse by waiting…and that car you were holding out on could be gone.

It’s always a roll of the dice. How much of a risk is it to you is the question everyone should ask.

Well, in my case the target is BMW X2, it’s a hard sell and dealers know it (too small for Walmart Joe), so when you start telling them you know this, prices start dropping. I negotiated a deal on the 40K MSRP loaner for $399 a month $0 due at sign with taxes in the payment this week. But I think December will bring even lower pricing, so I can wait - I am not in a rush :slight_smile:

You can do better than that now…

All comes down to how motivated they are to sell it, and being at the right place at the right time.

$277 a month with $2k due translates into $333 (+$28 a month on every $1k in upfront). I wonder what trim that MSRP $44k sold for $35k has. Mine was barebones (convenience pack) $40k MSRP, selling at $36K, which shows dealer still have room to discount… I will come back to them in December, to see how eager they are to meet end of year performance goals lol

They only came off 10% on a loaner? That dealer has plenty of room if they so desire.

But this is an exciting science to get the deal out of the dealers showing that you know much more they think you do. Classical example of “uneducated customer is the best customer” rule.

I don’t play games, nor do I try to make the dealer think I know more than he thinks I do, or try to outsmart them. I give them an offer over email, they can see I know what I’m talking about at that point, we either engage from there or I move on to someone else. I don’t have time to play the back and forth game.

And how do you know your price makes sense?

Know the market. Research. Throw out a large net, and sometimes get lucky. Got a 48k 3 series for under 3/mo for 12k/yr. Got a 46k XT5 for under 3/mo for 12k/yr. Not everyone is walking into either dealer and getting those deals. You have to find the right car, and find the right dealership + have the right programs currently in play…not always easy.

and when you say 3/mo that’s with $Xk upfront?

zero out of pocket other than first payment and grab the keys.
