i'm in the market for a new x5 35i premium...i've never shopped for an x5 before (it's for my wife) and i was a little shocked to find out that my local dealer (bmw of fairfax -- one of the largest on the easy coast) literally doesn't have a single x5 35i on the lot (in fact they only have one allocation available that isn't already sold)...so basically, unless i'm able to find a used 2011 with the options i want, my only choice will be to place an order...

anyway, i haven't really started negotiating with any dealers yet...before i do, i'm wondering what others are paying for x5s these days?...any info on leases (residuals/money factors) and loyalty incentives would be very helpful as well (i didn't some searching on the forum prior to posting this but couldn't find anything really current)...tia!
