Need Advice-Close to Pulling Trigger on a 2006 X5
Please share your thoughts on the following, I'm very close to putting together a deal here....
2006 Black/Black X5 15k miles Cold Weather Package NAV Six Disk Changer $32,995 + 7% NJ Tax (1st 2 payments made by BMUSA), 2.9% financing over 5 years...4 yr. 100k miles warranty...... Is this a good deal? If this is their final number are there any extras I can ask for? Longer warranty, etc.?? Thank you!!! |

Re: Clarification
It is a 3.0 and it is off lease...it is from a corporate-run location (i'd rather not disclose, but you can probably guess)..i'd also note that cars.com has an average listing price on cars with these specs (cpo and non-cpo) at around 35k.....the 4.4s from 2006 are listed closer to 40k with lower miles .........am i doing my homework wrong or do i have a lot more wiggle room than i thought??

I just saw an 06 4.4i with every option except RB & Tow. 22k miles for $32 in Oregon. Many other 4.4i's going OTD for mid-upper $20k, but with 20-40k miles. If you are desperate you will be beamed aboard the stealership and taken away to "ripped by the stealership planet" It is exciting to get a new car, but don't let it control you. You are in full control. I bought an 04 4.4i with 17.5k miles in March for $28k. Now I'm thinking I should have waited and got an 05 or 06. 04 has no BT. Oh well! I still love the car and it was the color I wanted. The price you have would be good for a 4.4i. You should really look into 4.4i, so much more power. Good luck! |

so much power.... but so much more problems with Tranny .... 3.0 tranny is more reliable then the 4.4... its a known fact.... the ZF for 3.0 is a better unit then the 4.4.....

SUV's are not moving now. You'd be crazy to take the price the offer without at least making it hard on them. Especially since it is a 3.0 which has the exact same fuel economy as a 4.4 with a lot less power.

Fair enough..so
What is the aggressive line I need to use, to show them that I will buy today, but won't budge past a certain price? They are already at an advantage because they know I love the car, but doesn't everyone love these?

Bluffing
As the "Buyer" you are always at Advantage NOT the seller ..... therefore play hard to get.... you should not call them or visit the dealer until they reach you first.... i assume they have your contact info... its a matter of bluffing.... just stick it out... when i bought my 05 X5 I called 3 dealers over the phone showed i was interested in a X5 and waited..... after 1 & 2 wks the calls started to come in.... and I actually bought the X5 @ the price I wanted to pay..... simple... just wait.... they need to move the cars faster then you need to buy remember that.....

Go 4.4 at least or else you will always be wishing you had more power. SAME FUEL ECON as 3.0!
