    Raybarnes or others familiar with wholesale auto purchases. Can you please PM me…. I have a question…

    True or False : Does BMW has or has not a holdback allowance? Just wondering, because currently push for something below invoice, and I was able to find a someone do offer $100 below invoice. Just wondering if there his a holdback or not. Edmunds says no..But I don’t believe that’s true. Can you PM me if you know or not? Thanks…

    Also, my definition of “invoice” does not include MACO or “training fee”, unlike some dealers who saying that “invoice” is what edmunds list + MACO and training fee (which adds about $800)…

    Are you talking ED invoice or US invoice?

    Based on my research, I believe the following is correct:

    BMW dealers do not receive “holdback” on the sale of any BMWs, regardless of if it is US or Euro delivery.

    U.S. invoice. One dealer is offering -$100 off of invoice on 2011 550 with a Nov/Dec build date. If there is no holdback, I don’t see how they can make money on this….unless they know about a spring sales event coming in march (which would probably be around $2500 off…mirroring the december sales event…)…The other thing is that 2012 is due in june…. Just wondering

    I firmly believe that BMW dealers make money on sales volume – they get a bonus based on sales #’s.

    I heard a report tonight on the German economy on public radio; and now more than ever I truly believe that BMW’s and MB’s are the finest motor cars available to the average person/family.
