My Ride: '05 545i - scheduled for ED pickup in Munich on 7/22!
I've been saving up for months for the chance to pull the trigger, and I hear dealers are giving lots of incentives for the E60 now. Questions:
1. Is it only on the 545 (because the 550 is coming)?
2. What about the 530? (I don't really NEED the V8
)
3. Can I still order a 545 now, or am I limited to what's left in stock?
(How much longer do I have until dealers stop taking orders for the 545?)
Thanks,
Rich
PS: I assume I'll have to order because I want Silver Gray/Auburn/SMG.

My Ride: 2002 330CIC with Sports and Premium (Sold 4/2005)
2005 545I Black Saphire Metalic, with Black Dakota Leather, Poplar trim. Sport Package, MTech Body kit and Spoiler, HUD, Comfort Seats, Navigation, Premium sound, CWP, Heated Rear Seats, Window shades. Valentine 1 hardwired, Aux input.
Yes there are screaming deals right now.
Money factors on the 545 are .001 which equates to 2.4% cost of money. It is cheaper right now to buy a 545 than a 530. I paid 2% over invoice and .0012 MF. My lease payment is under $700. Go for the V8. I know that there are cars scheduled for production in at least July. You should be able to order one to spec right now fairly easily. Hope this helps.

I just ordered an '05 545 at a MF of .0012 and 3% over invoice. It was less than an '06 530. You can still find a few odd ball '05 530s at dealers, which can be had for a MF of about .0014, but you have to very flexible in terms of color/options because not much is left. Generally, all the '05 530s that I found were loaded up with tons of options, so I ordered a 545i with just the sport package to keep the cost close to the 530s. If you aren't sure whether to get the 530 or the 545, I sugget you go to car and driver and read the review of the 2004 545 vs. this months review of the 530.
Good luck.
