dealers can be big a**holes! E90 overpriced

so my friend was looking for a new car, she wanted a 2 seater coupe but for some reasons she changed her mind and started looking for a 4-door saloon!

she had many options in her mind, top of them were...

- 1st option was E90 325i or 330i
- 2nd option C230
- 3rd option A6
- 4th option (forced to) E60 530i

she test drove the 325i, really liked her, and it suited her well, coming from a car as small as a Z3, but when she asked 4 the price, they gave her a price of $40K !!!
so she said i wont pay that much for a car without the features i want (here E90s dont come with i-Drive, blutooth, electric seats, and only 17" wheels) and many options are not there

finally she added about $10K to that price and got her an E60 530i with all these options and 19" M5 wheels!

people say the dealer does that cuz the E90 will be solds even with that price, but the E60 doesnt have the large sales numbers like the E90...

even though my friend added $10K, she is happy with her car

what about ur dealers guys?? are the price difference between the 325i and 530i only $10K???

Closer to $15K, and that's just comparing base prices... so you're friend did well if she got it for $10K extra and lots of options. Doesn't make sense on the dealer's part but oh well!

BTW base 328i price right now is $32,400, I think 325i was slightly less, but you get the idea.
