Personally, I don't see the point of waiting to buy the next model year car, especially this early in the year.

To me, buy the car now and outfit it with the options that you want because you'll be making the same decisions about the car now that you would be making later.

For example, if you wanted the panoramic moonroof, leather, autodim mirrors, and BMW Assist for the '07 model, you would have had to order the Premium Package. Now for '08, the panoramic moonroofs are standard, but you still want the Premium Package for the leather and autodim mirrors, and BMW Assist.

Another example, sure they could offer the 300hp twin turbo engine they have for the X6 xdrive35, but if you wanted 300hp, why not opt for the V8 now (and have the lovely growl of eight cylinders)?

If you wait for the '09, what's stopping you from waiting for the '10 model. If you wait for the '10 model, what's stopping you from waiting for the '11 model. If you keep waiting, pretty soon you've waited enough that the only way you can get a E70 is through CPO.
