How much over invoice for 2011 e90?

bavarianboar · 05-13-2010, 03:02 AM

Custom build 328i Sedan. Negotiating price right now.

What is a good price? (including training, MACO).

TIA

Less than $500 over invoice that means. No incentives on the 2011 328i Sedans right now. Or are there?

How about MACO and training?

Add MACO and training if the car is delivered in US. Only European Delivery doesn't pay those. And MACO and training is fixed across dealers in a region. In California it is $480 and $180 if I remember correctly.

Training is now 200 (up from 180).

So Invoice plus 500+Maco+Training amounts to about $1100 over invoice.

Do I push the dealer further if he is giving it for $1000 over invoice all inclusive?
I am using 8% less of MSRP as the invoice price. Correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks!

I was just offered invoice + $200 training + $725 acquisition + $350 profit -- they didn't have MACO as they are not in a big market I guess.

Invoice price(also called Whole Sale Price) is posted everywhere. It seems to be 8% less MSRP. Why not just google it or search this forum.

Better to negotiate $xxx over "dealer's cost". And add free carpet floor mats.

$xxx is dealer's profit.
cost = invoice+destination$875+MACO+Training-"any available truck money or incentive at the time car is delivered"

You sounds like first time buying a BMW. Go through the sticky threads in this forum, lots of good info there. Don't forget the Finance guy. After you are done with the sales, you will close the deal with him. He will give you a big list of extended warranty, extended service, ding shield, wheel & tire insurance, some paint protection sh*t, lease protection. I would suggest you don't buy any of those.

Depends on how bad the road condition in your area, and how much they offer, the wheel and tire insurance might worth it or not at all.
