on to the next one...
sigh Im going to be be selling my 335 soon. I need the funds (car is fully paid off) Im moving out of state so im thinking of picking up a nice 4 door truck with 4x4 for my snowboarding trips. Im moving bck to VA and Im going to need all the cash I can muster to get my self off to the right start with a new job and place to live. At time moment that is what is important to me, as much as I love her it's going to make me cry to see her go. but hey we move onto bigger and better things.

I have only driven the 6mt in the 135i. I know the shift nob is smaller on the 1 series but I am pretty sure the transmission is identical.

They're the same. The manual's shift knob is like ~1/4" shorter, so I guess the throws feel a little better. The AT's feel exactly the same to me.

Love the V8 sound. I like the Remus and Eisenmann race exhausts a lot, if I had to choose I honestly wouldn't be able to pick unless I heard it in person. They both sound great 
but whats with the fitment on the Remus???
The Sport is way too quiet though

Then 
not a good deal.
Should be able to get them for $500 over invoice. Add up your options using the wholesale price sheet.

BMW's sales just fell a billion percent YOY ... They've had the world by the ass for such a long time now that dealers are going to be having out of body experiences coming to grips with the fact that people aren't going to pay sticker for a BMW anymore.

It's weird, I'm no pushover when it comes to making deals. I was sitting with a salesman on Sat (I was also talking 1-series) and he gave me a price around 37,900. I told him I already got a price of 37 even from another deal and he told me to go buy it. I was like

Nom-nom-nom!!!
Opinions appreciated on this deal:
CPO 2007 BMW 335i with 16,1XX miles (has premium or cold weather package)
Price: $33,995.00
I'd like to offer $29-$30k with $3k down + my trade-in. Could I possible go lower or is the $29-$30k range a "decent" offer? This car has been sitting in the lot since Dec08/Jan09.

How badly does the dealer want to sell it?

Coupe? Options? You said premium or cold. Auto/Manual? Need the specifics.
Price sounds high regardless. I paid under 30K for my 2007 coupe with 6K miles, auto premium, heated seats, active steering, comf. access, backup sensors. No CPO. And that was 3 months ago.

I replied to your PM. The 90 days it has been sitting there is a huge point in your negotiation. You'd be stealing it for 25K. Figure a fair price to settle is in the low $27s.

That is a lot of mileage for 27k, Eric got an 07 for a hair under 30k with 6k miles. I would say to start with an offer of 24k and go up from there.
