Hello,
First time posting. I'm interested in this demo vehicle https://www.advantagebmwhouston.com/...cw2c08l9b57098 Can someone suggest if it is a good deal. Can I negotiate a better price or should I look for a different vehicle. Thanks in advance. |

I'm sure you can get a better price on a 2021.

Thanks for the replies. That gives me a better idea about the prices. I tried looking out of my area and came across this
https://www.bmwofsanantonio.com/cert...dac05fb8a8.htm I understand this is not a similar car, but what would be a good price for this to negotiate. That will give me a good idea on what kind of prices to look for in a 50i Also would be a wise choice to look for cars from non BMW dealerships like this one https://www.allensamuelsap.com/inven...cw2c0xl9b56051 |

Remember we are in a different time with pre owned vehicles at a all time high premium.

Nothing wrong with that. There were some iDrive 7 hardware changes from 2019 to 2020 but nothing major unless you need all the bells and whistles. The G05 X5 and G07 X7 were all new vehicles launched in late 2018 for the 2019 model year so in reality they are still rather new platforms.

If you are willing to drive I have a dealer in Atlanta that will give you 10% off MSRP on a new build before incentives. If not at least you can use that info as a bargaining chip. Price is way too high for that car.

That car probably had a original MSRP of $85k-$87k. A good price is probably in the low 70k to upper 60k range.
As a reference, I ordered my 2020 spec'ed to $90k MSRP and paid roughly $81k for it before TTL. (could've gotten it lowered by another $2k or so if wife was willing to travel an hour to a big city dealer). You can probably get a brand new 2021 X7 with MSRP of $85k-$87k for $80k before TTL without too much issue. |

I owned a 2019 and there were a few features that only started for 2020 models as well as they couldn’t be firmware upgraded. The newer 2020 iDrive 7 hardware was noticeably faster with less lag. We went into it in depth on the G05 forum. https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...ng+View&page=3 https://www.bmwblog.com/2019/09/14/v...ol-and-useful/ Last edited by MystroX5; 04-06-2021 at 04:08 PM.. |

BMW is very sneaky with new compatibility options especially for 1st year production models. They pretty much hosed the early adopters of the new 2019 platform. I was practically a beta tester working with BMW every week on the phone with bugs and upgrades. Tech roll out was a mess. Promises of “firmware fixes”or adding features they already advertised you were supposed to have but didn’t and said it “might be in the next firmware update” but they didn’t know.... |

There was a 07 or 08/2020 production update that added support for Apple digital key for MY21 models. iDrive is like BMW's version of Apple's iPhone - changes every year.

Thanks for all the inputs guys. One of the local dealer offered 10% off of MSRP on the new 2021 40is. Considering that route instead of the used ones as there are a few hardware changes in idrive as you guys mentioned. Initially, I wasn't particular about it, but with the 10% off, I thought why not
