"You can order a 2010 diesel X5 as well and still get the $4500 credit as long as you order before August 31st. You get the new iDrive with 2010 models."

I find this hard to believe as I recently discussed this with an SA and he checked with BMW as the cutoff date for building 09's was just around the corner.

I do hope you are right, although if I had ordered an 09 under the program only to find that a wait of a week or 2 would have put me into a 10, I would not be happy at all. I really don't think BMW would do that as they would have a lot of very unhappy customers.

I just checked an hour ago with my SA.

He said its recent change.

But the delivery will be when 2010 delivery starts in October.

Thinking this out... the 335d gets 27mpg combined, 10mpg+ more than my 15mpg clunker SUV, and it is under $45k to start which means I could do the cash for clunkers for another $4500 on top of this eco-credit from BMW? $9k off a brand new car? Yes please.

first car, '95 Isuzu Rodeo, still drive it as a beater into the city.

This would be such a great deal, except we actually need a minivan.

I am not sure if the $1800 IRS deduction will be available on 2010 models as its usually on first 60,000 cars.

Honda dealers have a good deal on 2010 Odyssey....works out to almost $10k disc with $4500 on a 40k Touring edition. My buddy just got one. And it has the variable cylinder management (BMW is working on it) where its shuts off up to 3 cylinders to save gas.

How much did he pay out the door? I got a car that qualifies for the Cash For Clunkers program. I'm torn between the 335d (which I love) and the Honda Odessey Touring (which I should get).

Really wish I could have waited for the X5 35d.
