Obviously a biased audience
but want to hear your thoughts. Wife deciding between X1 and X3. If we do the X3 we're going M sport 35i. A few questions:
- It seems an almost certainty given BMW's lifecycle refreshes that the 2014 will be changed. Dealer says they think the spy shots are bogus and 2014 will be the same (of course). Thoughts?
- Any regrets on things you didnt get that you wish you did, or things you did get you wish you didnt?
- Lease vs finance - these X's seem to hold their value pretty well, making leases less attractive. Thoughts?
- Target price - looks like ~$500 above invoice is a fair target. So if MSRP is $55k roughly, and invoice is $51k, that should be about what I'm shooting for correct? Anyone have tips to get more? I have no team drive discount, USAA, college grad, or loyalty unfortunately so just leveraging holiday cash and whatever else I can come up with.
- Considered Q5, XC60-R, GLK - any regrets for those who chose the X3 over the competition?
Anything else we should know?
