Re: 325xi Purchase Price?? [wstevec]
by poetkjusts on Fri Aug 26 04:52:49 PDT 2005
Hi, has anyone finalized a purchase price on a 2006 325xi yet? I am being told that they are selling for close to suggested retail price. Help!!! wstevec, I am a first-time post-er, and I received a lot of great information over time via this and other forums. I will be finalizing the deal on my '06 325xi later this morning, and am so adrenalized I've been awake since 4am! I went in knowing that, because the '06 325xi doesn't begin production until next month and because of high demand (i.e. I couldn't even get a September build slot), that I'd be closer to MSRP than invoice. I am getting $500 off MSRP (plus a $250 credit on any accessories). The $500 only eats into about 16% of the difference between MSRP and invoice, but I feel it's better than nothing! I live in the Twin Cities, so for me the xi is warranted, as I can't be bothered changing out to snow tires every year (just personal preference). There are two dealerships on the Minneapolis side of town, and another one in Rochester, MN - about 80 or 90 miles away. All were offering around the $500, and wouldn't really budge. Could I have done better? Perhaps, but I won't have remorse. The Edmunds TMV for a comparably equipped '06 325i in my area is about $600 off MSRP; of course, those have been available longer. Other considerations for me were the '06 Infiniti G35x and '05.5 Audi A4 3.2 quattro. I have been driving Acura's for the past 12 years. I never considered the C280 4MATIC, but I don't subscribe to what 'newowner' suggests in the post right after yours. It is permanent all-wheel drive with a fixed 40/60 fixed front/rear torque split, while the 325xi xDrive will be rear-wheel drive all the time unless slippage is detected, such as in wet or snowy conditions. Additionally, it is well documented that BMW's retain their value better than C-series and most other sedans (ALG rating in addition to other sources). I believe Mercedes has also dumped their 4 yr/50k mile free maintenance offering. Oh well, opinions will always vary. :) Depending on your timeline, you may want to consider European Delivery, if you are seeking to approach US invoice pricing. I used to live in Europe and have driven the Autobahn, so there was no real incentive for me there. Or, there is always the 2005 model year 325xi if you're looking to strike a sweet deal. It will be torture waiting until early November, when my '06 325xi arrives (it will be built the first week of October)!! The wait, however, will be worth it in my opinion. Good luck!
