If it really saved you $50Gs in taxes, then you have a new ride...
doesn't sound to me that your sales guy was that "excellent, all around", imo. The punque "manager" must think he is still living in 2005 and everyone is chasing a variety of the next hot bubbles... Enjoy your ride but I wouldn't take a free water on a hot August day from that joint, "next time". GL,mD

You got screwed, but I think you already know that. I would have searched for a car elsewhere. I paid 1000.00 over invoice, but that was a year ago. I didn't receive the 4500.00 eco credit. That money came from BMW, not the dealership. That was BS they had to sell a certain number of vehicles before they got that credit from BMW. My buying experience wasn't much better and I won't go back there for service, or to purchase another BMW. They don't even have free bottled water at either of the BMW dealerships I've been to. My Lexus dealer has all kinds of snacks, bagels, drinks.
I was lied to as well at my selling dealer. My vehicle came in with 3 out of 4 of the wheels damaged during transport. The dealer said BMW would take care of it and they didn't. I had to force the dealership to replace my wheels. BMW only wanted to repiar my wheels. I did learn a lesson, don't trust the dealer, don't trust BMW to do the right thing. This very well might be my last BMW. This is my 4th BMW... Craig |

You had no time but were there no other dealers around at all? SF area has to have quite a few.
BTW, so much for buying end of month / year...

You don't want to purchase here at the end of the year. You will owe property taxes on the vehicle for the entire year. That's why I took delivery on January 2nd. I waited a couple weeks to take delivery. I know you wanted the tax credits and sales tax credits...
Enjoy your new ride! Craig |

You purchased a great vehicle for $4500 under MSRP essentially. No discount from the dealer is spilt milk move on and enjoy! Get the 2009 full write off plus the Diesel credit (1800 v. 900 v. ?).

Sorry to hear of your horrible experience at BMW of Concord, never have went there and after your experience never will. The GSM did have a point though that in the SF Bay the diesel's will go in a flash. For example BMW of Mt. View recived 3 at the end of last week and now there is only 1. Also after looking through all of the SF Bay dealers I think BMW of SF had one and BMW of Mt. View had one, there is more inventory of X5M's and X6 Active Hybrids than 35d's!

Sorry to hear of this.
Of course you should not have shared YOUR personal details that gave them all the leverage...even if it WAS to be a business purchase, just do that at the closing. I'd have been calling every dealer in a 200 mile radius with some story of 'surprise my wife for christmas' and offering some hefty premium over invoice (but not full MSRP) If I could have saved $100 over their price, I'd have driven 100 miles to do it. They could have thrown you a bone and didn't. F em. I paid 1k profit at Pleasanton... I was shocked, frankly. Chico would be a good place to try A |

at least the difference between invoice and MSRP is minimal.
I wouldn't repatronize the dealer if I had the choice though. You don't reward that kind of BS with repeat service or referrals. |
