Hi all,
I live in the SF Bay Area, and I'm going to put in an order for a 2009 550i in carbon black/beige/light poplar with pretty much all options except high beam assist, lane departure, and active cruise control.
MSRP comes out to $76,045; wholesale is $69,450. I plan to negotiate with wholesale pricing as a starting point -- would appreciate any thoughts on what end point (final price) to target.
Thanks in advance.

Just consider that your "investment" will be worth no more than 35k in 3 years.
