Seeking advice on a CPO purchase

av8ndoc · 11-04-2014, 08:39 PM

I am looking at a 2011 E90 335i for sale as a BMW dealer CPO.

Their price is not horrible, but I think it is $1000-2000 over optimal.
Conceding that they are adding the 2 year CPO warranty to the car, it's not a horrible deal.

However, my question is for any advice on what to ask them for, if they won't lower the price at all???

Refurbish the wheel rash?? (if they won't credit to price)
Update the NAV maps?
not sure what else to ask for.....

Any advice/suggestions appreciated!!
TIA, Doug

***PS, anyone have a link to the text/actual wording of the original AND/OR the CPO warranties?

The cpo info is on the bmw.com site. If you can look at the carfax report on the car it will tell you when the car was for sale. So if the car was for sale 2 months ago, I would tell them that they have had the car that long and it has not sold yet and they might move on the price.
I looked at a car and the sales manager said he could only lower the price $500.00 and 2 days later it dropped $1000.00 Thay can do what they want.
I noticed that every 2 weeks or so on Autotrader the prices drop $500.-$1000. on Thursday. It will show "price reduced"
