Canadian 2012 X3 35i Price Increase?

Hi Everyone

Can anyone tell me if the X3 35i base price increased to $49,710 CAD? I noticed the base price as part of BMW.ca's configuration tool. Is this possibly an error in the system?

Thanks.

BMW recently included costs not previously identified. The 2012 pricing remains unchanged.

The 2013 pricing hasn't been announced according to my dealership.

I'm ording a 2013 this weekend and we'll be using the 2012 pricing. I have agreed to adjust final sale price based on the 2013 price. i.e. difference between 2012 & 2013 MSRP.

The fees(PDI + ...) are all different across all the dealerships. Never saw a dealership has PDI + Freight less than 2k in GTA

Point taken. I suppose it's all about the bottom line anyway.

My wife's Acura is built 30 minutes from our home and we still had to pay the "national" shipping rate. A very socialist scheme... but that's Canada.

I think it depends on what part of the country you are in for BMW to charge PDI. I think Alberta and BC is $2495.

I've been quoted both $2495 and $1995 depending who I ask. Probably just more padding for them to make adjustments if needed to make the deal.
I think you got a good deal though, so doesn't really matter either way.


My final price reflects these fees, which end up almost $300 more than what's stated above.
AMVIC FEE $6.25
Freight & PDI - X3 $2,495.00
Registration Fee $495.00
Air Conditioning Excise Tax $100.00

It doesn't really matter, because I based my negotiations on all-in pricing, but I might just make a mention of it anyways when I pick it up.

Good one

You can either make sure the price looks good at the beginning or try to negotiate a deal at the end. Both ends up same thing

Lane departure warning will be an option. The N20 will replace the N52. Those are the major changes. Other than that I'm not sure shouldn't be too much different though.

The US model will get Auto Start-Stop and Driving Dynamics Control (with Eco Pro mode) as standard features, and Driver Assistance Package (with lane departure warning) as an option; as per their Press Release.
My dealer hasn't been able to confirm whether these changes carry over to the Canadian model, but I don't see why they wouldn't.
