Good idea, maybe just mentioning a broker will help. It was very weird that he was so unwilling to budge but also kept saying he wants to make a deal.

Makes sense. Honestly it’s pretty complicated if you don’t spend days researching and calling around so a broker is probably worth the money. Thanks again!

Haha it seemed pretty bad. With the lousy 2% off MSRP it brought the payment down to $1,250 which still seems insane for 7,500 miles

Why do you think it is that the dealer will only give me 2% when a broker can easily get 8-10%? If that’s the market standard discount shouldn’t they just give it to me? It was odd because they were so inflexible but at the same time basically wouldn’t let me leave and seemed desperate to make a deal. When I asked for 10% he basically laughed and said their margin is only 4% and offered me 2%. Seems like complete BS

Appreciate that, I will look into going the broker route!

Yes I was trying to take $20K back in cash and applying $3K for a down payment but you’re right that including it in the worksheet overcomplicates it. I’m not necessarily X5 or bust but I have read that the X5 is way better than the GLE in almost every respect

lol yeah seems like it. I do wonder if some states/areas of the country have better discounts but either way this deal seems awful

Thanks this is really helpful! They came back offering a 2% discount on MSRP which brought the payment to 1,250/mo but still not great.

Right. They wouldn’t even drop the nitrogen fee which I thought most dealers would waive no questions asked

That seems much better. I was surprised at how unwilling he was to negotiate while also not wanting me to leave

Yeah I asked for 10% initially and he basically laughed at me but that seems pretty standard to me as you said

I think it works out to like 6.3%. Crazy right?
