I stopped by my dealer today to keep the pressure on him about my order date. He said they would begin writing hard orders Sept.01. He gave me some order info and accidentally gave me a wholesale price list with the paperwork. Not that we have much bargaining power considering the demand, but it's nice to know the mark up.

What difference does it make what invoice is? You'll never pay anything close to it! ??????

Even my own personal car, I have to wait until the initial demand calms down before I can get one at my BMW price.

I was complaining to my insurance company about them raising my rates. The company told me, "Well, Sir, we ARE in the business to make money." That shut me up quickly. I was amazed both at her honesty, and of my insurance company's competent ability to succceed at this major business goal -- to make money! :1:

Thats not even $7000 on the base car and the other options don't look to be marked up heavily. In fact it is a 9% markup. That is very respectable, we are just becoming accustomed to these recent promotions by the big three here stateside. As for Digi's insurance we all know they are a rip off. We all pay in then when something happens they try to cut corners or avoid their obligations all together.

boo hoo a $7,000 mark up over invioce is nothing most german high perf cars have at least a $10,000 mark up. Take a look at a corvette. $7,000 on a 80k car is no big deal.

I wonder how happy BMW NA will be when they see this on this board:crying2: , I think they love holding all the cards, Josh

I was in no way complaining about the mark up. Hey, I'm a Democrat and a Capitalist. 9% mark up seems very reasonable to me as well. My post was merely an FYI.
