I just got a little bit over 7.5% off a 335 M Sport (+$1500 cash discount on top of that) from a dealer which I have been told is particularly difficult to deal with.
The only "additional fees" on top were Admin, Nitrogen, and Fuel for a total of $430 (which I felt was very reasonable). All other fees were the standard fees such as a/c, tires, licensing, etc. They tried to include all weather mats and Globali, i simply told them I don't need either one of these and they took them off. Everything was fairly straight forward and without hassle. May have also been due to the fact that I was negotiating an on the road price with them (all fees + taxes in).

I guess it's time for you to move on to another dealer or another brand. I've heard MB has a much better compensation package & structure since they are mostly corporate owned.

100 bucks per car..How many cars does one SA need to sell per month to make a decent living? BTW - I guess no one entered the Bank Of Nova Scotia Contact Photography exhibit contest offered by BMW Canada. I was one of the 3 winners for the prize pack to have a chauffeured-driven bmw take us around the exhibits, then a $200 voucher to dinner at the Drake hotel. |

Why does car buying have to be such a myterious process? Really it is such a waist of time. You run from one dealer to the next trying to get a price you think is fair but you never really know if it is.
Like others, I have use Car Cost Canada to become aware of dealer the invoice price and the conventional advice is to negotiate from that price up rather than from MSRP down. But how many are actually successful in getting the dealer to do that? Everyone needs to make a liivng but the car sales process seems inherently flawed in that buyers always feel they are getting ripped off. I think dealers would be better off being more open about thier pricing structure. And why do dealers not recognize the service revenue they will get if they sell the car to a person who lives locally? As I mentioned earlier, I drove to London to get my last car but I still get it serviced by the Quinns. I like the Quinn service guys and they are my local dealer. But the sales people forget that. It seems like sales and service people in the delaerships are strangers and don't actually work in the same place. |

I've been loyal and made many referrals to Quinn but given the latest experience (stupid charges, sloppy paperwork, and the servicing) I'm probably going to move on the next go around. Last edited by pokerface; 05-14-2013 at 09:46 AM.. |

Wow! So after spending so much time and effort, an SA at a BMW Dealership makes only $100 after selling a car? And thats it? There's no base pay?
This has got to be a joke. Coz I heard the SA's have a target of 6 cars a month so $100 a car makes that $600 a month. There's got to be a base pay on top of the $600 commission...right?
