Thumbs down Nav

I know, I don't like the nav, took me a while to find one without it...

i'm a little late on this thread, but thought i'd share...

late Nov. I purchased an '04 4.8is (TiSi/black int/dark poplar), w/retractable floor and running boards for $62,999. It had 9500 miles on it.

The dealer wouldn't come down a penny on the price. I traded in an '01 4.4 (loaded including nav) that had 84,000 miles on it. The dealer gave me $22,000 on the trade-in.

you will love your 4.8!

f355b - I think NAV is point less where I live, I would never use it, and BMW NAV is not touchscreen, which makes it even more pointless for me. Plus I don't like how bright the screen is at night.

radio x5 - that's still a great deal for what you're getting, I think the reason I got the car so cheap is that the E53 body is being phased out soon, on top of the fact that the 4.8is, although rare, is not a popular model because of the price. Also, mine has no leather and no nav which MOST people want.

I'm having the dealer add Sirius before they ship the car, they charged $695 for the install and the antenna goes on the roof.

Another data point...

I'd keep looking!

Two months ago, I got a brand new '05 4.8 from my local dealer w/ NAV for $66,400 (list 72,600).

I'm sure there are other new '05s out there in smaller markets, with dealerships eager to unload them.

Good luck!

i just got mine for 59,000 Lemans blue and black.

Is a 05 with 4000 miles on it with all options including heated steering wheel and sliding floor on the trunk and nav.

They were desperate to sell it .. i wonder why ? but what a car .. love it so far and hope to keep it long and be active on the forum ~!

good luck on your search as well !

holy thread revival

i haven't been on for a while so I was surprised to see this thread still alive. thks for all the feedback guys, truly a great forum. To update everyone: no I didn't end up getting the car, because the dealer would not come down (not even a penny) on the price . So, I'm still enjoying my 4.4i, no with x-pipe . THe new plan is to just finish the lease on this car and hopefully p/u a 4.8is when turning this one in. tks again fellas.

and congrats TS 4.8is..enjoy a great car.
