BMW had to "build me a new one"

Imagine my disappointment when my CA informed me that my '13 128i w/manual tranny was "damaged" during shipping, and that they'd have to build me a new one. 2 weeks is the estimated additional wait...

Have you run your specifics thru truecar.com & edmunds.com's "true market value" estimator? Good places to get real-world prices.

bmwconfig.com has proven to be reliable, and their "configurator" is fun to use. And they had MY '13 numbers that edmunds.com didn't have yet.

Final negotiated X1 deal

The deal is done, and I must admit I'm happily surprised that I was able to negotiate this vehicle down to $600 over invoice. Lease is 36 month, 12K/yr, no $ down. Used $1000 Drive for the Team, $750...

We've been taken a bit off course here...I was curious, based on the X1 being a popular new model, what the maximum over invoice I could expect to get a dealer to agree to.
