skywalker562 · 08-05-2009, 04:13 PM

Hello~
very helpful threads including invoice prices and all.
near OC, CA there are a few M3s available. I am looking into full optioned M3 E93. the price is almost $79,000. every options and packages you can imagine. (cold weather, premium, tech package, IPOD, 19" wheel, EDC, M-DCT) what is a resonable offer i can give to a dealer? news says car sales went up but not very much. and it's 2009 model. i know dealer will lose money if the car sits in their parking lot. do you think i should go for invoice price? the invoice price " I " calculate comes out ~ $70,000. I quote " I " means i probably made some mistake (maybe added twice or didn't add items) would you please help me out so i can ask the dealer person what i am going for? i waited for almost 4 months checking prices / raeding very nice threads. i need your help~ and maybe i can be M3er at the end of this month.

Thank you so much in advance. PM is also welcome.

I am looking to buy an E90 M3 towards the end of this month, and I also live in the LA/OC area. I was watching Bloomberg a couple days ago and they said that Used car sales have been going up, however new car sales are still slumping.
I am going to offer $1,000 or $2,000 under invoice for an 09 because they probably have some incentive to get rid of them and make room for the 2010s. And we will see where it goes from there :]
I just want Technology Package and DCT when I calculated the invoice price it came out to around $57,000? I think I am calculating it wrong cause I hear some people getting them for under $50,000. Oh well lets see what happens!

Good luck with your shopping :] What dealer do you plan on going to?
