!!!$1,000 to reserve BMW 1-Series!!!
Hello All,
Although i am new to the forum, i am no stranger to the 1-Series or BMWs. After tracking this car for a year, BMW finally plans on bring it to the US. So i went to the BMW dealer and put an EARLY $1,000 Non-refundable payment down to reserve this car. i guess thats the price you pay to be the first one on the waiting list in El Paso, TX |

Wow, there was no way I was doing that. Its not like they are in a dying need of the sale. This thing will sell like hotcakes IMO.

when negotiating with my dealer his facial expression made it clear he threw-up a little bit in his mouth whenever he had to agree the deposit was refundable.
it was almost funny. i put down 1k but i can get it back if i want. but seriously ... if i don't like the car then i'll just get a 335 instead. |

This is not to flame you brfbmw128i, you make every salesman happy: compulsive, wanna be the first one in the block to have this car and is willing to put a non refundable deposit. Every salesman would want customers like you.

no harm done,
no paper work was signed, i just want to secure the car. before buying my 350Z, i was looking at the 325i, but because in the market im in, the one i wanted would have taken some months to get. I live in a military populated-town next to mexico, this car would never see the dealer lot:smile: |

I paid 1k for my spot as well. Fully refundable, what's there to worry? Except for the interest lost there really isn't anything to worry about.
I am probably #1 on the list as well but it doesn't mean I am commited to buy. If the deal isn't to my liking I walk away.
