Hi all im going to be a 1st time owner hopefully tommorrow of a 2004 530 e60 if the deal goes right tommorrow. I just need some help with numbers and wonder what sounds like a reasonble deal or great deal. hears the info on the car : 530 e60 sports and premium package Certified preowned 100,000 coverage. It has currently 32,061 miles and was an end of lease turn in.No accidents paint,body and interior is in mint condition. The tires were replaced and are brand new.

Silver grey/ black dakota leather
black Siberian Woodgrain (i think thats what its called)
automatic

Sticker price is $41,400 excluding tax and license
we live in southern cali


Me and my wife are getting 2.9% promotion , because she is a previous buyer from the same dealership
Were putting down $8000 and figuring if $540 / month for 60 months sounds right or to high or low?
total payment comes out to $40,400. Any input is appreciated.

also look at the door jams closely,and inspect the gaps between hood and the fenders same thing for the
rear bumper and trunk and doors. if you see any unusual gap(s) question it if the car has been painted for any reason or not

yes Quad me and my brother in law did that first , no gaps or signs of accidents. also checked for unusual painting under the wheel wells. The only thing the dealer did was touch up the bottom front spoiler and rear bunmper for paint chips and from parking dings. I actually saw the car when it was turned it from the previous owner.
