| Just purchased a 2004 330ci convertible fully loaded including hardtop for $49,880 (MSRP - $52,490). Negotiated invoice up, not MSRP down. They didn't have anything I liked in stock so I had to order. Saying 1st of March for delivery. Guys in Bellevue were easy to work with. | |

I had been in the market for a 325i originally, but after driving the 330 there was no going back. The best I could do after several hours of haggling was $1000 off MSRP: Titanium Silver/Black Leatherette Sports Package Moonroof Had to order, no "stripper" 330 like that would be available at any dealer. Last 2 weeks in February delivery. hope everyone had a happy new year Dave |

Just did some negotiating today, do you think this offer is fair? 2004 BMW 325xi: -with cold weather package and moonroof -manual transmission -metallic paint MSRP: 32,770 dealer best offer: 30,991 they will give me a 42 month lease 12k miles/year money factor .0027 residual 55% 2500 down (includes 1st month payment, destination fee, bank fee, etc) $419 per month not including tax Edmunds says this car's invoice is 30,040 but that people are paying 32,400 for it (TMV price) I know this is a lease question, but what do you think about the selling price of 30,991? Thank you! |

| Doesn't seem very special. You are paying almost $20,000 over just 3 1/2 years of leasing. I always look at the ads from my local BMWs. One is advertising " '04 325xi Lots to choose from! Starting at $30,700." | |

Just got a note from a dealer in Atlanta that I have been negotiating with that told me the MSRP on the 330i (with premium package, Xenon headlights, auto trans, metallic paint and heated seats) had increased by $400 (from $41,745 to $42,145) and the Dealer Invoice had increased by $720 (from $38,260 to $38,980). Has anyone else heard this? |

All, I know there are alot of us out there looking at leasing 330i's. They have raised the residual to 58% and dropped the money factor down in the .00125 to .0014 range. I have priced a 330i with Premium Package, steptronic, Xenon and heated seats for roughly $510 per month (no cap cost reduction, no dealer doc fee, $2,500 off sticker). Good luck to you all... |

| Just keep watching what is happening in the relationship between the Euro and the Dollar. Dollar falling. BMW does its accounting in Euros and, even in South Africa, pays with Rand. Even with derivatives and other actions, there is only so much BMW can do before the fall cuts into profits or forces them to raise prices. | |
| Anyone out there recently bought a 2004 330i and got a pretty good deal? | |

| I had negotiated a 2004 330Ci convertible (ordered from the factory) for a price 1/2 between invoice and MSRP (below True Value) (sorry, I don't have the exact figures with me); since it was to be delivered after Jan 1 (even with order prior to Jan 1) there was about a $500 price increase (1.2%, I think); I split the difference with the dealer since we had a deal struck before they remembered the increase. I demanded and they gave to me the BMW bulletin sent to the dealers. The price increase applied to the base price but not to options. | |
