Need advice. Purchasinf 2018 X6 30i

I am about ready to make an offer on a new 2018 X6 30i. I am trading my 2011 X6 50i.

What kind of discount should I go for when dealing with the salesman? The sticker price is about $72,500. I'm thinking of offering $65K. Am I being reasonable?

I'd be shocked if he dropped his drawers that low, but I'm dying to hear the reaction. Don't you think you should at least test-drive one to see if you can live with the torque of a 6? Unless that's already happened...

Oops, just read that you already did. My bad.

Hey Peter,

I drove one last week. Power wasn't too bad but sound was anemic.

I am not negotiating for one in stock. I want them to order the one that I built and the sales manager says he is willing to do that. He even offered to order exactly what I want and when it comes in I can buy it or walk away if I don't like it.

I don't like this deal as he would have an advantage holding the car that is custom built for me. I want to negotiate the price before I order. If I don't like the price, I can start calling other BMW dealers who may be more willing to deal.

Does this make sense?

I don't blame you for wanting to set the price b4 ordering. Give it a try, you have nothing to lose.

If I was a betting man, I'd wager you could knock him down by $2-$3k

BTW, if you unplug the exhaust flap at the tailpipe (right side), you get a louder exhaust note. It ain't no v8 sound, but at least it sounds sporty(er). That's if the 2018's still have that flap.
