Agree and disagree, price was a problem I had/have with them too, I'm trying to get a left-over 2014 and trying to get $13000 off MSRP. I'm going to lease it for 2 years and at the end of the lease attempt to negotiate a lower pay off. Residuals are a gamble and on a vehicle with up to a $7500 tax incentive even more difficult to guess, some qualify, others do not, some states have even more incentive, others do not. So if my pay off is theoretically $30k, and cars like it are only selling for $25k then I will attempt to get another $5k off at that point. Hoping, in the end, to have purchased a $56,050 car for $38,050 excluding interest, tax and etc. of course. Yes, BMW employee's get a great deal on any BMW. I don't see how they could get them for $50/month but anything is possible I guess.

Yup, we made it nearly 9 years together, not quite 100k together. I agree with you, some friends and family have suggested I FB friend the guy that bought her and although he really was a nice guy, I just don't want to see her anymore. He had driven down to Pensacola last weekend to look at an Imola Red ZHP, he said everything on it was "crispy" that it had been outside all of its life. My car, on the other hand was basically never outside. As we were signing the paperwork in my kitchen his brother was trying to reassure me that he would take care of the car and I said "Oh man, I forgot to ask, do you have a garage?" they both kind of chuckled but he said no to which I responded "I'm going to pretend you said yes to that question as I sign this bill of sale." lol
