How much can I get off new 325 and 330ci's?

[brandonb]

I am thinking about getting a new 325 or 330ci. I can't really afford a 330ci according to the price on www.bmwusa.com. I want to get a lot of extra options, possible even navigation. Does anyone know if you can get money off MSRP at dealers on new 325ci or 330ci's? If so, how much and where?
Thanks,

I dunno much about pricing of the 3 series... but if possible, I would definitely try to opt for the 330 over the 325. Well, of course you would say... but the acceleration difference is definitely significant.

Both cars are great, you cant go wrong with it. Good luck on the purchase

Yeah, I would love to get a 330ci if possible. I think a 325ci would be just too weak since my last two cars were a 97 M3 and a 2001 S2000. I am also looking at an 03' Acura CL Type-S 6 speed w/ navigation but I think I want to go with a bimmer.

You should be able to pay invoice + 3-5%. Price it out on kbb.com with the options you want. When you go to the dealer start by offering invoice. Then work your way up to between 3 and 5% over. I would never pay over 5% over, but you should be able to get that especially if its already on the lot. You'll pay a tad more if you have to order. But there isn't great demand on these anymore.

If you have to have the dealer trade another for the car you want, don't expect much off,

Take the accessories angle, get some keychains, golf balls, hats, shirts, umbrellas, etc... LOL

Definately go with the 330ci. The Cl Type-S 6spd has 260hp (correct me if I am wrong), but they are heavy as ****. It is because of this that the car is not quick at all. Plus, German cars are always better.
