I was told by the dealer today that GAP insurance is included however I'm still following up on this because I do not see GAP mentioned anywhere.

We are in the market for a new GLS but an odd '19 X7 build caught my eye.
X40 loaded to $94k, yet it doesn't have the Premium or Dynamic Handling Package. We would only use SUV's for errands and such (maybe 5k miles a year) so I would only really miss the HUD. Was a cancelled custom build; they must have used it as a general demo afterwards (1800 miles on it). To me this is a used car so the pricing should reflect that. Without any miles I would have considered it for 11% + incentives but what are your thoughts on the miles deduction? Thanks for any input! |

Yes it will

I always thought that you have to have been a member for at least 1 year to get the discount. Getting the CCA membership now won't help with the deal now.[/QUOTE] I just enrolled. It's a new offer and you'll get immediately. In fact, you can actually get the membership up to 15 days after the purchase and still the the $1000 discount. Thanks to the board for this awesome tip! |

2020 X7 in Miami, FL. What's wrong with the numbers?
I have placed an order through a local dealer on a new 2020 X7 and the car is currently in production. I have not yet signed any paperwork with the dealer but I have been given the fallowing deal:
MSRP: $79095 Savings: $4545 Adjusted Price: $74550 PVT Tag: $10 Tire and Wheel Insurance: $2542 (I will remove this before signing, left it in now for comparison) Total Purchase: 77102 Taxable Fees: 393 Dealer Fee: 899 Tax: 177 Non-Tax Fees: 1217 (acquisition?) Down Payment: $0 They are quoting me $1095p/m (plus tax) and $2914 Drive-Off on a 12K/36 lease. This is inclusive of the Loyalty Discount. Using the Lease Calculator (57% res. and 0.00145 m.f. and $1250 loyalty) I get: $1030p/m (plus tax) with $2552 drive-off Not sure if this is good deal, given that others are easily getting 8% off, but I’m also having problems matching their numbers to my leasing calculator. Why are their numbers higher? Is the dealer pulling a fast one by increasing the MF? Any ideas as to what else might be throwing the numbers off? Last edited by mawk6211; 08-21-2019 at 09:24 PM.. |

The discount you're getting seems pretty abysmal. Did you shop around? |

Yes, but not enough! But I will this weekend. This car is special-ordered so I figured they'd be less willing to negotiate. Actually just checked, and it's "awaiting carrier assignment." I better move quick. Thank you!

Almost 6% off a new build isn’t abysmal honestly. I got 8 off mine but it was also 110k msrp. But I think that’s only bc I know people at the dealership. I asked around and some of the dealerships offered 3-4 off but nothing more. May depend on your area and their allocations as well though.

Guess they like to make the car a permanent dealer fixture. ROTFL I'll get the new 2020 GLS custom-build for invoice with base MF so unless I find another X7 nearby, it'll be a GLS |

This is highly personal, but I've no problems driving for a few hours, if need be, to save a few $k. |

Before going GLS, maybe try shopping around a bit more, including increasing your search radius a bit? You should be able to do well on a 19 right now with 20s landing on the lots. |

You should be ashamed of yourself for wanting a discount on a 100k. What’s wrong with you? |

As mentioned in a post before mine, it sounds like he employs the strategy of maxing out profit per vehicle, all other considerations be damned. Seems short sighted to me for a business like this but it's his paycheck on the line. See if he'll disclose how Benz's dealer incentive program works. I suspect he can still make a good chunk of $ even at an invoice sale. |

You’d not only sell a car but create a relationship that could lead to more buys from the same person or word of mouth through said buyer. Last edited by BMWBear; 08-22-2019 at 07:22 PM.. |

I agree to a certain extent but I also tell people daily to pay up or GTFO lol. At a certain point you target certain buyers or in my case, patients. My business model is one of quality and great customer service, not cheap prices and quantity. Some dealerships I think go this route as well.
