I would take it like that but would also ask directly if it was refundable should you back out of the deal. Many dealers will refund the deposit until it goes into Production Begins.

The other decision I'm struggling with is the wheels. Should I go with the safe route (20") or the better look but more expensive replacement tire cost (22"). Squared or Staggered?

Also keep in mind that the ride will be rougher with the 22's than the 20's. If you are getting air suspension then you likely won't notice it much. If you aren't then it may be something to thinking about and what type of ride you prefer. All 22's are staggered so no decision needed there.

There is no rear axle air suspension, it is both axles. They will be more than happy to sell you and extra set of wheels and tires.

You’ll have to ask him. He is a straightforward man and can be trusted. It’s likely that his discount is based on a sold order so he will incur no “floor plan” costs. It does go both ways in terms of give and take and trust. PCD is a great experience. I’d think they would refund you prior to Status 150 at which time a VIN is issued and no changes can be made. I have 22” wheels with standard suspension and the ride is fine. I live in Hilton Head Island so no need for snows. Personally I do like the 20” wheels that come with the M Sport pkg but opted for the look of the 22’s. The one must have IMO is Driving Assistance Pro.

Depends on what type of ride that you want. If you want the most comfortable available with some sportiness when wanted then you get the air suspension.

New to forum. Have a 2015 X3. Purchasing 2025 X5 xdrive40i custom build. Texted dealer the build and gave him offer of 10.5% below MSRP expecting to have to negotiate a little. Cash offer accepted immediately, they had an allocation for next week build (I think) and slotted me in. Received order # within 2 hours. Will get military incentive as well. All feels a little too good to be true.
Anyway, learning a ton by reading here so thank you all and good to meet you. |

Hi All,
Just joined the Forum and super excited to say we are RE-Joining the BMW family after a 10 year hiatus and starting our family. Looking for some help/thoughts Negotiating with a local dealership here in the NYC area and from what I’m reading here, I guess we are right in the middle of current expectations of discounts? for a new build order 25 x5 xdrive40i. I’ve got the dealer to just above 8% off MSRP at 3.99% APR. Not sure if I can get any further but figured ask the experts here. Thanks all in advance for your time and guidance and looking forward to contributing to the forum. |

New user first car in NYC
Hi all ,
New Joiner looking to buy a first car a 25 X5 Tanzanite in cash in NYC and not seeing much better than 3000-3500 discount on an 79K build which is less than 4%. I reached out to 6-7 nearby dealerships with no real luck. Would love to know where the NYC poster below is getting a 8% discount on MSRP. Thanks Quote:

Hi folks I’m new here and from Texas. I’ve owned Lexus and Audi in the past and this will be my 1st BMW. I haven’t dealt with a car buying experience for the past 6-7 years now. I’m in the market for an X5 xdrive 2025 or 2024. I’m trying to understand how to get the right discount for these models. Also please share any local dealership references to help with discounts.

If you let us know which metro area you are in I can also recommend a dealer and you can try your hand at negotiating directly. |
