European Delivery purchasers: How much should i expect to pay over invoice?

Hello....Sorry for making yet another topic. I hope this topic is appropriate. As some of you might know, i am about to do the european delivery program...just need to get to the dealer and get the ball rolling(acutally, waitin on something to happen in real-life first, which will trigger this purchasing event!).
I have basically done TONS of analyzing on all the packages and options and have come to a final conclusions. But i have a few questions in regards to this ED program.

1. People have mentioned that they got their car for about 1,500 over European invoice. Is that without options correct?(i guess what i am asking is, as i sit here and add up my car price, should i be adding in the options at full price?).

2. Exactly what is possible when it comes to this ED program? I am so tempted to go to a dealer here in the DC area and be like 'well, the guy over there told me he'd give me 1,300 over ED invoice, can you do better?".

3. When it comes to financing it, if i tell them i can get a loan through peoplefirst(i think thats waht the place is called) for 5.89%, will they usually counter with a lower finance charge?

Sorry i seem to be analyzing this too much. But, as i mentioned a few times, i graduated college about a year ago and can finally afford the car of my dreams. I think my parents(my dad is a steel worker and my mom is a clerk at a clothing store) 'penny-pinching' ways have rubbed off on me slightly........thanks guys! Really this is a great site!

I was going to pass on answering your questions but I was touched by your background. It somewhat reminded me of myslef when I came to this country 6 years ago with $200 in my pocket, grayhounded from LA to Pittsburgh, worked my way thru grad school, and now I have my own Bimmer and house. America is a great country - you get reward when you work hard and smart.

Most of your questions have been answered. You can check http://www.autosite.com/new/grabbag/rebatet.asp for the published financing rate.

I recommend Joern Esser at Passport, MD. I know many Washintonians had good experience with him. He is indeed a German and very helpful. He normally does $1400/1500 over without a problem. Call him at 301-702-6407 (o) 443-871-0853 (cell), or e-mail him at [email protected]. or [email protected].

Never be ashamed of being thrifty - money saved is money earned.

Good luck.
