Interesting. The 325 goes up by $600, but the 330 by $300.

[Jason]

Sorry, forgot to mention, these prices DO include $695 Destination/Handling charges.

In order to get the current prices, don't you need to take delivery by Sept 1st?

Even if you order a car now that built this month, it's very unlikely that you'll be able to take delivery by Sept 1st.

No apparently, if you order now and take delivery by Nov. 30 then you're price protected also.

It is July 20th. It's the cut-off date to place the order and lock your price, but you can take delivery upto Nov. 30. For example, I have no choice since BMW is not producing Xi's for ED until Oct.

Wow. A whole $300. I better take that second job.

hello forum, im new to this whole ED thing. IM looking to order a 2006 330i in about a week. I got the invoice pricing thing and looked under Confidential Wholesale Price and also used the price calculator to estimate my car. All i want is a 300i + Auto+ Premium+ Park Assistance+Rear Sunshade. It came out $36,147.30. I was wondering if this is correct. If so is that how much i have to pay or are there more fees and such? Thanks

The BMW press release says the increase is effective September first.

Effective means effective !

13 years of Catholic School education down the drain ?

BTW: I am not trying to be a wise guy but just going by BMW's Press Release.

You're correct, but if someone just orders now, the car probably won't arrive and be invoiced until after Sept. and hence the increase.

Saigon:
I checked it and it's based on an estimate with the $300 price increase for a 330 ED in Munich.
I get an ED invoice of $35,900 + dealer profit + tax, lic and docs. Also what color do you want? Since metallic colors are $475 additional

$31,150 invoice ED
1210 for step
$320 for PDC
$525 for rear sunshade
$2000 for PP
$695 for Destination

Dealer profit should be between $1000-$1500; although someone got like $900 over invoice in the Bay Area recently. Do a search in the "Rate the Dealer's" section.

Good luck!
