2012 X3 28i: true invoice price & rebates?

Hello,
I’m a prospective new buyer for a 2012 x3 28i.

I am trying to understand if the true invoice that we need to work the price up from is the one that shows up on Edmunds.com, is that right?
I have been seeing some people getting deals for “under invoice” based on the dealer price they negotiate and the rebates that they are able to get.
Are there any other tricks or rebates right now we can qualify for? I am trying to look for the best dealer to buy the car from in CA, for the best deal, preferably in Nor. Cal.

I appreciate it. Thanks,

mike

There aren't any incentives on the X3 in Canada right now but I use a service to get the wholesale cost of the car so negotiations are on an equal footing.

I'm OK with the dealer making profit off me but not ripping me off. So the mark-up is 8-10% on the Canadian cars and I'm likely willing to offer 3-4% over invoice primarily because the money over invoice is pure profit.

I'll be ordering the car and paying for:

special order
freight
pdi
taxes
etc. etc.

The dealer incurs no cost other than rent, utilities and commissions on my vehicle purchase.

Plus no one knows how much 'dealer hold back' the dealership gets for meeting sales goals.
