DCT prices

RiShi · 06-28-2008, 07:49 PM

Heya, what're people paying nowadays for DCT cars now that 6sp prices seem to be softening? Seems like dealers didn't stock DCTs for 2008, so almost every one is a special order...anyone getting a sub-MSRP deal?

WhiteFlashE90 · 06-28-2008, 08:07 PM

I just got MSRP - $2,500 for an '08 AW, P, T, DCT. It's in production now!

TheBry · 06-29-2008, 01:13 PM

MSRP for me too -- ordered back in April, arriving sometime in July.

RiShi · 06-30-2008, 10:34 AM

whiteflash, you're saying 2500 off tho, right? not straight msrp.

milk242 · 06-30-2008, 12:02 PM

I've been talking to this dealer for 2500 off MSRP, wasn't hard to get at all. I'm thinking of pushing for 3000 off MSRP.

WhiteFlashE90 · 07-04-2008, 06:12 AM

Right, $2,500 below MSRP ... I prob. could have done better, but the CA gave me an outstanding deal on a previous 335i

epoints · 07-26-2008, 11:18 AM

Wow! what a car! Went to test drive - just to make sure DCT is not jerky as my SMG... DCT will pass my wife motion-sickness test...

Unfortunately, my CA said NO discount but might be able to work something out if I want a 6-speed. What?!? No way my wife is going to learn 6-speed. Is there a 6-speed wife option?

I was just offered 1K over invoice on a DCT sedan that's about to go into prodution.

GT3 Tim · 07-29-2008, 09:59 AM

Paid MSRP. Picked it up yesterday. Ordered it several months ago.

patronM3 · 07-29-2008, 11:33 AM

Tim: You sold a GT3 for an M3! Can I ask why?

brendanwp · 07-29-2008, 12:32 PM

$2,500 off MSRP on an ordered E90 w/ DCT.

Had to go out of state to get it though. Thats probably your best bet since the LA market is probably a lot like the NYC market.

DCT is unreal. Rides like a auto in traffic, better then a stick (or at least better then i can drive a stick) when you want fun.

BMW3R · 07-29-2008, 08:10 PM

I am waiting for my second BMW. It is a DCT M3. I have been waiting several months and purchased at MSRP. I made up $4,000 in "return" customer lease rates, or so I am told.

Like GT3, I have been waiting a long time. I have thought about moving to a MY2009, but I am not waiting another 3-4 months to get the car with some extra bling and possible 3% price increase.

By the way GT3, CONGRATS on the new car!

I've got that too, but it's okay with me that she prefers her auto Merc.

BIGNTASTIE · 07-30-2008, 12:11 AM

i just got 2500 off MSRP also at my local dealer.

thefly · 07-30-2008, 09:47 AM

i got $2250 off on mine, plus some extras...

anywhere in the 3% - 5% over invoice should always be easy to obtain. now if i was buying one off of the lot, i am sure i could have done much better

Sticky · 07-31-2008, 11:08 PM

Found the DCT coupe I wanted, list was 72k. I offered 67k as a starting point and the salesperson said my offer was insultingly low. I walked out the door. If 5k off is not a good starting point in a negotiation he can keep the damn thing. I'm patient, in 6 months months they will be wishing for people to be taking their inventory. Dealers in SoCal need to stop this feeling of superiority that they don't need to deal.

968PORSCHE · 08-01-2008, 11:56 AM

If he is insulted over an offer then he is in the wrong business.

Wow, he probably doesn't sell many cars

Just greedy, others are dealing on DCT's, it is just a matter of time. The cars are fresh, so they will milk the market as much as they can. When I was at another dealer they were still asking 10k over sticker, that was a good laugh. After a few seconds of talking to them they did not even mention the markup to take the car.

digitalperk · 08-14-2008, 09:51 AM

$3500 off an inventory 08 M3 Coupe w/ DCT, carbon, and all options. It was from a dealer in Houston. They also got a white 08 M3 Coupe w/ DCT, Sunroof, and all options if anyone else is interested. It took a couple of days to negotiate but it was worth it.

gmtmaster79 · 08-15-2008, 10:26 PM

digitalperk, I'm interested in the white M3, depends on the price. sent you a pm!
