carsdirect.com will give it to you for 27,418 with no options

haha 24k for a 05? come on man be realistic. the BASIC package is based at $29,000. now whether you can deal them down is all in your communication. a full package 05 325i will run you about 36k. you're talking about an 05 bimmer. not a used one.

I just purchased a new 325i this weekend; sicker price was 34,100.00 internet sales gave me a quote for 30,655.00 ----- I ended up paying 29,500.00. I hope that helps.

helps alot marine...and some friends suggest i try out this...which some may find useful click here for new car buying tips.

also i check edmunds.com and kbb.com.

on edmunds i found that bmw was (until the 28th) giving basically a $2500 rebate to the dealer. at a 27Kish INVOICE price, the dealers cost would be roughly $24,500. tacking on 5% margin for the dealer, the price should be $25,275ish.

oh, and btw, she found a different one she likes better...now it's a 325i with premium and col weather package..so i gotta start all over. thanks for input fellas (and gals if anyone is a gal)

im tellin ya... go for carsdirect. we bought 2 cars from there, and paid thousands less then the dealer offered us. We got the exact cars that we wanted (all the options, color) and they delivered the cars to the dealer that wanted to charge us thousands more.

my gf got them to 26k, opted to take some time to think about it, then found this other one.

the nearest carsdirect dealer is over 160miles away (she says, i haven't actually tried to get quotes)...cisco, which is why she's opted to deal with the local dealerships. (bellevue wa, is the closest one according to carsdirect.)

CiscoKid · 03-01-2005, 10:48 AM

i dunno. when we dealed with them, they shipped it to the closest dealership, which just so happened to be the same dealership that tried to sell us a more basic car for thousands more
