Apples and oranges. F30's are mass produced, F20's and F80's, not so much. Everyone here is trying to one up each other on their sale price, but truth is we don't know what everyone's drive out price is. Maybe you got a deal on the vehicle, but you got ripped off on your trade or you purchased some warranty packages that made up the differences. For every member here that thinks they got a deal, there's 10x the people who paid near msrp for their Bmw. Don't get me wrong OP, go for the best deal attainable. Just don't get caught up in trying to out do what everyone here claims they got. Different markets, different situations, different deals. |

US MSRP *.93 = US Invoice
This applies to base cost of car and options. But for port installed accessories, for the invoice price vs MSRP, the invoice price is a lot lower than 93% of MSRP: I was just trying to show a more accurate calculation of invoice price when port installed accessories are factored into build: For example: US Port Installed Prices: Blk Kidney Grilles, MSRP 230, INVOICE 155 CF Alcantara Interior Trim, MSRP 1105, INVOICE 790 CF Selector Lever (Auto), MSRP 260, INVOICE 180 CF Break Handle, MSRP 240, INVOICE 180 Carbon Center Console Cover, MSRP 245, INVOICE 175 |

thanks for the lesson. Typically options are actually 91% of MSRP, with base price being around the 92% mark, though that is sometimes slightly more or less. These are different for MP parts.
I did euro delivery, so I was not able to purchase MP parts. While I know there is a large difference between cost of MP parts and their suggested retail price, I wasn't aware that you could negotiate the price on a port installed accessory.

92% of Base, rounded to nearest 5 dollars. plus 91% of options, rounded to nearest 5 dollars. plus $950 destination, plus MACO Fee & plus Training fee, roughly say $500 So usually 93% is a good ballpark calculation. Well regarding negotiating price on port installed accessory, based on what I know, these port installed parts are added into the total MSRP build of the car and the invoice price is lower for these parts, you can negotiate the total selling price like they were options added into the car. |

So then it's hard to say what the final outlay was... When I ordered my car, my dealer gave me each item in the order with a price tag associated with it. These were all marked as invoice price with a final price of invoice + dealer profit. You were working down from MSRP, but nonetheless good data to have when negotiating, but it seems to leave the question a bit vaguely answered - yes you get a discount, but how much seems to be up to the dealer.

But it seems you didn't negotiate UP from invoice price unless I missed something. It sounds like the MP parts gave you more room to work down the price, rather than the dealer simply adding his profit to the invoice price of everything.

Hi again everyone!
I wanted to give a BIG THANK YOU for everyone that replied to this thread!! I finally took delivery of my M235 Friday night. Everyone's input really helped me negotiate a deal I was comfortable with paying. I know that I did not get the best deal as others had but I was able to get the vehicle $2,250 below MSRP and I felt it was a fair deal to me. If it wasn't for all the help in the forums I'm sure I would of done a lot worse on my own (Haven't purchased a vehicle for 7 years..) Thanks again everyone! |
