I'm shopping for an X1, and I've been checking Edmunds & Trucar. I notice that they show different numbers for the invoice:
Edmunds: $29095
Trucar: $29695

(This is the base model X1 s28i with no options) There is a $600 difference between the two. Who is right here?

Look at the number for truecar and see if it has an estimate for MACO (regional advertising fee).

Truecar could also be charging incorrectly for options. Make sure the MSRP's match.

You don't need Edmunds, Trucar, BMWconfig or anyone else to get the invoice. It is 92% of the vehicle msrp + 91% of the options msrp + gas guzzler tax if applicable + $895 + $180 + maco. So if the msrp with no options was $31545 which includes the $895 you multiply .92*(31545-895) + 895 = (28,198) + 895. BMW rounds to the nearest $5 so 28200 + 895 = $29095 + $180 + maco. How much is maco is the problem. I just ask as a casual question before I'm serious which seems to work.
