I'm from Los Angeles, California and have received a dealer faxed quote on a BMW 550i.

I have two questions:

What's a MACO charge?

What's a Training/Service Fee?

Are these fees suppose to be included in the sales price. For some reason I think the dealer is trying to make up some profits here.

Thanks in advance,

Rock

Thanks for the info!

Looks like I don't pay the MACO fee, but the training fee may not be negotialbe.

 

Go see John Lee at Center BMW in Van Nuys. I got my '08 550 Sport $1200 over invoice. I shopped several local dealerships and no one even came close. Probably the best sales experience yet...No hassling whatsoever! His manager Bruce was also very helpful. Tell them Sam with the Carbon Black 550 sent you...Good luck!

 

Sam,

Thanks for the heads up. I've got a quote for $800 above invoice. I'm just waiting to get the pricing confirmation faxed over. They've already ordered the car.

Thanks Again!

Hello, mind if I ask which dealer did you deal with? I am located in LA and shopping for a new car as well

 

Let me make sure there not pulling my leg. I should have a faxed pricing sheet Monday when I go into the office. Once I have a faxed confirmation and your serious about buying I'll send you the information of who I was dealing with. I was dealing with two individuals.

Will post Monday night with itemized pricing sheet!

 

Got the faxed confirmation $800 above invoice along with MACO fee and Service Fee!

Not Bad! Waiting for delivery! Valencia BMW

If you are leasing the car, would you mind sharing your monthly payment (with tax) and months/mileage. Many thanks.

 

Sorry..

I'm buying the car.
