| Edmunds had posted that incentives were through 12/1. I'm counting on them offering incentives again. I called around on Monday 12/1 looking for a 3 series. Most dealerships in the Boston area had automatics left in 325i and 330i. It seems surprising that BMW wouldn't be trying to clear them as we get deeper into the season. | |

Based upon what I've seen that is a pretty good price, although if it's manual it could be a little high +/-500. in the ballpark anyway. Most importantly is that it's a nice package with sport and Premium. Look at the original sticker msrp. I would think that you are about 25% Less. The way I look at it, you get a great car and the previous owner too the depreciation. I love mine... |

| My 2001 330i lease is up,deciding whether to purchase at $31735cnd.+2000 for x-warr.or lease 2004 325i. 330i has been just great and has lots of options but 2004 325i includes warr and lower monthly pymts. 2004 is 42800.+freight 1295. Which would you choose? | |

If you already owned the 2001, and could warranty it for $2K, I would do that.. but, you don't own it, or even have any equity in it. You can buy any car you like on the planet. That said, for what I think is about $7K USD difference, getting the new one seems to be a no-brainer vs. a 3 year old car. Assuming you can live with the 2.5 liter engine. regards, kyfdx |

My car just got stolen and I really need a car soon! I came across with two 3'ers: 99 328i Sports/Premium, Blk/Tan, 28k miles, $20k 01 330i Sports/Premium, Silver/Grey, 35k miles, $25k What's you guys opinions? Is the extra 30hp on 330i really make a different? Thanks for the advice. |

Did you come across these cars at a BMW dealership? Are they CPO BMWs? You should have them checked out by a BMW specialist. Get the VIN numbers and find out the original in-service dates for these cars. The '01 330i might still be under free maintenance and B to B warranty. Are the cars stick or automatic? |

| Made my third offer on a 2003 325i, different dealership for invoice minus the incentive and they countered with 32,700? I was doing better three weeks ago? | |
| I have noticed that the ZHP performance package is available with steptronic (Why?) but not SMG. The SMG(SMG is only available with ZSP sport package but not on the 330xi) is supposed to offer performance comparable to a manual tranny.Has anyone met a brick wall in vehicles equipped with the SMG or Performance package pricing? | |
| I have finally decided to purchase a 2004 325i;struggled with the new 5 series, just can't get comfortable with the new body style. Any ideas on what i'd expect to pay? I thought of trying for a 2003, but supply seems to be dwindling. The resale market for these cars always seems strong and i will put extremely low miles on this car, so that if I change my mind about the 5 series in a year or two , I feel can still get a reasonable deal. Also, any thoughts on using an auto broker. I have heard all kinds of success stories about buying below or near invoice and less hassle factor. Enjoy the great feedback of this forum. Thanks. | |
