10k off a good deal?

pg2373 · 02-05-2010, 10:14 PM

got an offer of nearly 10k off of a new e90 in Space Grey. Sticker is $49,395...dealer offering $39,995. Should I go for it??

Would you buy a car with such limited information? Imagine if you were in a position to provide advice.

IS it a 'new' demo car? What's the odometer reading? Some won't bite on a deal that brings together some of the more awkward interior combinations. Does it have most or all of the options you desire? If it doesn't do you plan to use the savings on upgrading? In these situations, remember the eventual cost of the 'deal'.

New...20 miles..space grey with black. Got all the options that I want except for NAV which isn't a big deal.

2009? 2010? For a 2010, maybe I would do it. 2009 they would need to give more off.

Sorry, thought I wrote 09...yes its an 09. SO are you saying I should be able to get 10k off a 2010?? Seems so much. There seems to be no incentives out there.

Yes, because the 2011's are already ordering, and have a lot of changes, including a completely different engine!

Check out some web sites to see how the price compares as loaded. If it's lower than what is out there, then go for it. Especially since it's new, albeit a model year behind. It might be a good deal, but you will never know until you research...

If its an '09 its been sitting there for awhile and with 20 miles on it, it hasn't been driven much, just something to be aware of, might want to look at the build date to see how longs its really been there.
