After reading lot's of article online and on BMW forums and negotiating with dealers here are my number's please feel free to post your suggestions on my deal with dealer for thanksgiving delivery.

BMW 325i Sedan
MSRP - $Thirty Thousand Nine Hundred
Metallic Paint -
Automatic -
Xenon -
Navigation -
Shipping -

Total MSRP - Thirty Six Thousand One Hundred Forty Five
ED MSRP - Thirty Three Thousand Nine Eighty
Best Offer on ED - Thirty Two Thousand Seven Eighty

I was talking to few dealer's around North East i got best offer from a dealer at above .. for ED. I am getting twelve hundred off ED price shown at www.bmwusa.com
This is my first BMW and most of the money is on loan so please let me know should i go ahead with ED for thanksgiving delivery or there is still room for negotiation.
Do you think i am getting enough discount on ED price i.e $2 1 6 5 + $ 1 2 0 0 = $ 3 3 6 5 on BMW 325i

I'm 27 year old and my above configuration reflects my need but please let me know what option i should add that help me to resell (incase) i have to do after few years.

Thanks in advance ...
Is there anyone going to Munich around thanksgiving ??

Check the pricing sticky at the top of the e90 forum. But to make it easy for you, the ED invoice for a 325 is $26,150.

Thread with Price List (http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=106116)

Regarding options: You are getting the basic model with no fancy stuff. Unless you really need the navigation system do not get it since it depreciates the most. You can get good aftermarket GPS systems for one third of that cost. I would rather put that $2K to get the ZSP or ZPP. The $800 xenons is another thing I can live without.

Also have you considered leasing your 325? With ED it is an excellent option You may want a bigger/different car after 3-4 years. Since you are planning to finance, you will be paying the finance charge anyway. You will be saving on sales tax costs by leasing.

First advice to you is to X out those dollar amounts before BeeWang gets here... Posting price details is againest the forum rules. He's alrady been doing this for a bunch of newbees latle, me included, and he is getting pissed :rofl:

A good deal should be in the very low 4 figures over ED invoice.. PM me if you need to know more...

You should be shooting for between $1000-$2000 over wholesale. Hope this helps.

I see your location is Boston...you may want to consider 325xi....it is 1600 or so more than the 325i.

saurav27, I am not sure why you decided to spell the dollar amount. :eeps: The above is the precise reason why I run a policy of XXXX out the dollar amount. Someone will always have an opinion and will make you feel like a fool.

Discussion of X amount over invoice without all the facts and circumstance is misleading to readers of this forum. That is why I asked people to take the pricing discussion thru PMs.

Thank you,

beewang ;)
