Re: Negotiating lease on 2009 with incentives [adefina]
Written by: gryan on Dec 3, 2009 8:09:59 AM
The dealer should be selling the car at around $7000 off not $3500. The $6000 is from BMW and does not hurt the dealer. According to you/Edmunds, the Dealer paid 91,155 and wants to sell at 95,500. He should be selling at invoice just to move it off the lot so he can sell more 2010's. Ask him what he is using for cap cost? and what is the money factor. ... Read More
