Your numbers are a bit wrong. On June 1st, 2008, BMW increased their prices due to the weak US dollar. Here's a list of the price increases - gathered from: http://www.bmwblog.com/2008/05/06/bm...g-june-1-2008/:

- Base price increase ($400)
- Destination charge increase ($50)
- Metallic paint increase ($100)
- Premium package increase ($100)
- Sport package increase ($100)
- Automatic transmission increase ($50)

That said, I just got my order finalized for an 09 on Wednesday and there are still no finalized prices yet. My CA told me that all she saw for pricing were blocks (we did this over the phone). Instead of getting hung up on non-existent numbers right now, I would go for x amount above invoice on the car itself and invoice on the options and packages.

That's how I negotiated and I managed to get an 09 e90 (with refreshed goodness) for $500 above invoice and all options for invoice, whatever those numbers will end up being. My previous deal was straight invoice on an 08 e92, but that fell through when the dealer ran out of allocation (I tried to put in my order on literally the last day possible).

I hope this helps. Good luck!
