Pricing of the X3
I am just wondering what kind of pricing you guys got on your X3's. I am currently trying to get 4-5% above invoice. Should I be trying to get lower prices or is 4-5% above invoice good for this car?

If you are trying to get 4-5% above invoice that means you are only getting 3-4% off? I would try for more unless you need the car now. Go to other dealers and work the pricing. Although I bet the more off they give you the more likely you are to get pushed to the back of the line. You could order your car at $500 above invoice, then 2 weeks later someone could pay 4% more than you and probably get theirs produced first, I wouldn't doubt that happens all the time. |

Options also play a large part in changing that percentage pricing, you'll usually get more off a well optioned car than a base model since the dealer marks up add-ons. For delivery it also depends on if the car is a 28i or 35i, it seems even if both cars are optioned exactly the same you can expect to wait a few weeks to a month longer for the 35i.

Its like when I got $13K off my brand new C63 (right before the new model years came out), I knew that Mercedes was giving the dealers an $8K kickback at the time and I was really just getting $5K off from the dealer, not the full $13K, of course most dealers never told people about the $8K incentive Mercedes was offering and tried to put it all in their pockets (it wasn't easy getting that price), many phone calls and e-mails playing one dealer against another who both had cars in stock they wanted to move... Even though its a hot car, we really don't know if the dealers are getting kickbacks on the X3 right now, especially on custom high option orders. |
