Hello all, this is my very first post in this forum.

Went to my local dealer, they have only one brand new 530i, with oxford green color/beige intertior! And a reduced price by $10K. Fully loaded (DVD Nav, Active Steering, PDC, Adaptive Headlights, BT, ventilated seats, CD Changer, 18" rims .. etc) For around $50K.

What do you think guys? Is it a good deal? Please asnwer ASAP. Is the oxford green available as an option for 2006 models? (Color code 430)

Thanks!!

Hi there, and welcome!

I have that combo, and love it. I think the colour was discontinued for MY2007. Dark green is not generally a popular colour, as traditionally it is thought of as being unlucky. I think it looks great on a large car like a Range Rover, big Jag or even my e60

Here is a pic: The mountain you can see is called the Sugarloaf Mountain, it's in South Wales.

There are apocryphal tales of (in UK at least) green having the highest pro-rata number of insurance claims.

The urban myth is that green "merges" with the "backgound" (if you can find any green backgound that is).

Must be a 2006? I think they dropped Oxford for MY2007. Hard to tell if this is a good deal, you should go to Edmunds or similar and load in the options to see what the dealer invoice price is. Assuming it has what you say, and a step and premium that are on most, it probably is close to invoice. Most here are happy at $1000 over invoice, but the 2007s have been available since May. You might be able to push it a bit harder.

Good luck and welcome to the forum!

Thanks for replying guys

I'm still thinking, not sure what to do !

Sorry for the late reply, but been really busy looking for a car. Saw this lovely 545i 2004, with only 3750 Miles on it !

For $40K, what do you think ?
