2011 G37 with Sport, Premium & Navigation

Hello All,
I am a current BMW 3 series owner looking for a new ride. I have come down to G37 pretty much. I did like the G37 with Premuim, Navi, Sport Pkgs and looked at the Limited Edition on the Showroom floor.

I liked the Limited Edition a little more because of the Aero Pkg, Midnight Grill and obviously Red Leather. I was wondering how much discount i could get on these Limited Editions?

Any info is appreciated!

I live in Atlanta. I could drive 750Miles radius if a very good deal can be had

The Limited Editions are not on the VPP list if that is what you are interested in. Means good luck with invoice. Try to work something out with the dealer. oh and btw the Limited Edition would be a step up, unless you are coming from an M3.

I just purchased a 2011 S Sedan for invoice but they may not deal as much on the LEs.

Apparently, I won't qualify for a VPP plan as i am a Contractor for my Company for last 6 years but not a Fulltime Employee. Very Unfortunate

I have emailed the sales guy that i am interested in both LE and G37 with Sport, navi and Prem.

G37 are step up from my 325i for sure...but i am having little hard time convincing myself for the extra dough for LE. It's just cosmetic stuff (But i like it) nothing related to Performance.

Decisions!!! Decisions!!

Anniversary Edition os for last year models(2010). for 2011 they are being called as Limited Edition. Logically speaking you are right

Do you have any of these items???

Proof of Employment clearly displaying the employee name and company name
Paycheck Stub – Amounts and SSN can be marked through
Business Card
Company Photo ID

Then VPP you are.

I have a Business Card, Company Photo Id (Company name is not displayed for Security reasons) but Pay Stub is for Employees only not contractors. My Pay Stub says a different company name.

Please research VPP pricing ahead of time. There are some shady *** dealerships out there who say they are giving you VPP pricing when they're really not. How do I know this? I used to sell Infinitis...

The only info that i have about VPP is Invoice price and additional Manf Incentive which is $500 for G37.

The goal behind VPP is to give the best price without the need to haggle or negotiate for price. There are several different classes, where as most people fall under the Business Associates class, which is Falcons023's case. My dealership participates with VPP, however it is not a requirement as some dealers do not. Personally, I think VPP is a great program and I have been working with non-business associates to work out other arrangements to get to a none haggle price point. And on a final note VPP also applies to Nissan's as well as Infiniti's, but not on GTR's, IPL's or Limited Edition's.

you dont need all those forms of ID, only some. You can get away with just showing your Photo ID. Thats all I needed to show.

I understand you're a consultant, but they dont know that.......and if they call your company and verify, worst case just play dumb.

but you need to find out if your company qualifies for VPP

Even if they call my company...they will say that i work here but they might even mention that i am a contractor. What i am betting on is...by then i will know the VPP pricing from that dealership and if they need my sale they can't waver much from that price other than $200-300.

If not i will go to a different dealership. Since i did my test drive there and he went out of the way to bring the brand new car with sheets still on...i am planning to give him the 1st right of refusal. Then i will cross shop at different dealerships.
