F10 ED Price Negotiation

I am planning to hit the trigger on a F10 550xi for a ED my dealer is saying that ED will only help save on Base MSRP but on options no discount.

This seems different from what I read on some of the other posts. Not sure my dealer is taking me for a ride , any thoughts on how to counter and negotiate. I am approaching a few other dealers in NJ to see what they say.

Also my dealer was mentioning of a backlog on new ED orders. It seems the earliest I had get one if I order now ( March 1 ) is May/June timeframe.

Has anyone heard the same?

1) With ED you only save 11-14% on base price. There is NO discount on options. That is still a significant saving.

2) I am not sure about ED backlog....Hard to believe.

Read ED wiki on bimmerfest.com before you talk to dealer and select a dealer who knows ED well. PM me if you need suggestions on dealer.

Thanks for that info. The wiki was definitely useful. Could you please send me any dealers in NJ who in your opinion have good ED deals?

I got my options for U.S. invoice. They key is to negotiate $x,xxx over invoice on the total invoice price. It ends up being 12-14% off msrp depending on your deal.

I've not yet done ED, but I suppose that there is a limit to how many cars they can deliver in a day, and spring/summer is certainly a time of higher demand before the plants shut down in August.

For NY, I do not know anyone. Ny people can go to NJ and deal.....can also benefit from MSDs if leasing.

I don't believe there is as much backlog. I ordered mine last week and had no problem with ED date of 3 week in June. I heard they are booked thru mid-may.

See my post on the price details.. You should calculate total invoice as Base ED invoice + invoice of all options + $500 to $1000 profit.
