X5 50e discounts?
Hi,
I put down my deposit on March 9th for a fully loaded 50e. I just got the call that I finally have a production spot (Yay!) I was being quite impatient waiting for my turn, and I ended up calling almost all dealers in upstate NY to see if I could speed up my spot. My dealership had 11 people in line for a 50e (I was 4th on that line as of last week), and another dealer I called told me that I could join their line too however they had 5 people ahead of me for a 50e. Every where I called it was the same story.... I was reading on a reddit post someone saying they got 10% off the MSRP for a 50e. Here is my question - Do you think this guy is lying? Is anyone actually getting this car for under MSRP and if so how are you doing it? I personally can't imagine any dealer selling this car for under MSRP when it's probably one of their most in-demand cars. thoughts? |

I got my 50e ordered here in Europe at 19% off MSRP, but things work different here, as prices ar absurdely higher than in the USA.
From what I can read in this forum, discounts on 50e's in the states are very little or none, maybe 2-3% off.

Thanks for the reassurance. When I put my deposit down, I was assuming I was paying MSRP. The dealer did give me $500 off, however I am not expecting more than that. MSRP doesn't break the bank but I didn't want to feel like a sucker if people are getting this car for 10k less. 2-3% isn't worth my time arguing.

Most are at MSRP, or even higher, since production/allocations have been extremely limited. I would imagine broadening your shopping area or using a broker may get you a discount but may not be worth there trouble.

I got 4k off in Bay Area on MY 2025, a little under 5pct. Dealer just said it should be End July.
Didn't bother shopping around since seemed fair on brand new model. |

Absolutely no one should pay MSRP. You could get $2k off without really even trying. If you embarrassed to ask, that’s a different matter. The car is in high demand but I was offered $1500 off that I said no to. Asking for 7% off which I doubt I will get but they mentioned that they have end of month deals to make. I am in New England. Will see how it goes.

Placed order for X550e on Feb 28th, managed to get 6.5 % off MSRP. I did have to negotiate a decent amount and went to dealer twice + a few phone calls. I am located in South Florida.

No reason for anyone to pay MSRP - there is room for a deal.
I just got $7105 in dealer discounts plus $4K Navy Federal discount in metro DC. That turns out to be 8.78% in dealer discount and 13.72% of MSRP overall. The June allocation build was a custom order 2025 XDrive40I with m sport package, mineral white, premium package, m professional package, parking assistance package, climate package, massage seats, and tow hitch, spare. Shop around to you get a good deal on paper. Once you get it in writing, shop around the estimate with other dealers. There are deals. Some will give you BS in they have tight margins but that's not the case. |

In my case, I decided PHEV is not worth the additional price for my lifestyle. Maybe the tech will catch up with more time, but for now, its just not for me. |

The 40i and 50e might look the same but they are far, far away from being the same vehicle.

Your assessment of the difference between the vehicles is also way off the mark.

I'm new to BMW's and this forum as this is my first post. At my house we're still "discussing" our choices for X5 50e from one end of order guide to the other. Decided no M Sport options - just can't decide on massaging seats considering additional cost. I have them in my Ford Platinum F150 but have rarely use them. Once we settle our kitchen table negotiations we'll probably have to settle for test driving a more available 40i. Then we plan on contacting one of a couple brokers/consultants that seem to have positive forum feedback and references. Really appreciate comments from active members such as TurtleBoy. Interested in how things work out regarding purchase or order deals involving trade in and our location in Idaho (only 2 dealers) and most auto consultants that seem to be much farther east. We may even consider PCD for delivery or at later time.

In regards to the massage seats, my wife says we can never get another road trip vehicle without them. She uses them every time she is in the X5. They have become a must have option - happy wife, happy life.

I can tell you on the island at one of the bmw dealers - no one is taking more than a couple of grad off a M60i or a M5 competition- and the 50e loaded is what I wanted. But there is so much quality issues with the drive train for now …makes me worried.
The S63 is the last of the great V8s. If you don’t mind dropping $400 a month on gas - it’s easily one of the finest v8 engines ever made. It’s detuned M5 racing engine. Read up on it. For that reason and the quality issues on the PHEV - I ordered the M60i |

We will have to agree to disagree about my assessment as both the 40i and 50E have the same identical B58 engine, chassis, and options. Only difference is an additional giant battery, extra electric motors, and modules to make all the PHEV stuff work. Personally, I will never buy a PHEV or all electric car for that matter as I keep my cars 12-15 years; it's all complicity that I do not desire plus less MPG when running on gas due to the weight. It's a shame BMW does not have the diesel still available in the US as its a far superior engine and the Europeans are lucky to have it in their market.

Not sure what the Metro DC's counties have anything to do with the different markets between the 50e and the 40i. There is no comparison between the availability of them, hence a different discounting structure.
