Wording Emails for the Deal? [How To Negotiate]

Hi . I am looking for XXX, preferably stock # YYYY . I’ve test driven the car and now I am looking for the best lease price in CA. Can you kindly tell what’s the best sale price/dealer discount I can get on the vehicle before incentives? What are the available incentives, the MF and residual for a 36m/12k lease. (prevents dealers fumbling around with the MF and rebates because I know what these are anyway) For taxes, please use XYZ zip code. What will be the total monthly with 0-down (only fee…

Wording Emails for the Deal? [How To Negotiate]

I’ve always been a bigger fan of breaking the deal down rather than dealing with monthly/das, especially when dealing with a car where FOLP is at play. On my most recent lease, I deliberately tried to deal with only monthly/Das. That lasted about 2 minutes before I ended up having to break the deal down anyway to show how I got to the numbers and gave up on doing things based on the monthly/Das.

Wording Emails for the Deal? [How To Negotiate]

You gonna negotiate the selling price first, then the MF then argue about doc fees, nitrogen and Acq markup? No. Lay out the selling price, your incentives, MF and RV = monthly payment and DAS.

Basically, they’d suggest giving more than DAS and monthly payment, including incentives(this one will be included anyway), best selling price, MF, etc.

What is this target based off of?

It’s a BMW 330 xi and the in the market place the selling price is around 8 percent off the MSRP, while in the share deals section some LHers can get it lower to 9.5% to 10%

For example, this is my purposed deal:

But on their website, the quote is:

Do you think it is fine to send them an email saying I’m looking for a 2k DAS and 430/month with the incentives I have? This is actually one of the biggest dealers in my area and I don’t know if there is any risk of being blocked after submitting this offer.
