What is a fair price for the new 2011 528i?

A local dealer ship has one remaining brand new 2011 528i with sport, premium, navi, heated seats. MSRP is $53,045. I haven't seen the car yet but it looks it doesn't have zenon lights. What price should I try to get it for? I'm thinking to try 46K. Is it too low?
Tahnks in advance.

I just got a new 2011 535xi (MSRP $72.4k) for $62.5k, and got a stellar deal on my trade. I don't think your offer is a lowball one or anything.

I agree $46k is not a lowball offer for the car. You might start off with an even lower offer ~$43k and see if they will bargain. It new, but its a model year old, so depreciation will really bite when you drive it off the lot. And, its costing the dealer $$ to keep a year old, unsold car in their inventory.

Thanks for the feedback. Visited the dealer today. They started with $46,800 and went down to $45,800 when I asked for 44k. The trade in offer for my 2007 335 coupe with 48kmi wasn't very good either - 19.5K. After the trade the total is $28.7K. They added around $300 for nitrogen, wheel locks and tank of gas which is unheard of. I counteroffered 26k but they didn't budge. Will see if they call me back tomorrow.

Tell them to keep the nitrogen, wheel locks and gas at $300. Wheel locks are worth about $50, tank of gas $60, nitrogen worth ????. I think costco gives it free.

Thank you for the recommendation. The dealer came down by another 1k but I just found out that the car doesn't have xenons. Most likely I'm going to pass the deal - I've had xenons for a while on my cars and I don't want to get a 50k car without them

Agree, Xenons are awesome and IMO a must on a premium car. You would miss them.

Not only that but the angel eyes revert to halogen from LED. Big change.

The 2012 528's don't have xenons standard?

2012s all have Xenons in the US.
