It can go as high as 40K fully loaded.

in my area you can get a 330i fully loaded (everying but performance package it does have the sports package though and these two are mutually exclusive) for right around 40K give or take 1K

i dont know if this is true for everywhere else though but cars here are definitely not cheaper than anywhere else (northern virginia)

yeah when i search those car sites they always give the invoice but no dealers will actually give you that price. and is the 325 xi worth it? or should i get a different model for more or less?

Or do what my father-in-law did:
2001 Jaguar XJ8 L Sedan 4D

2001 Jaguar XJ8 L Sedan 4D

$30,910 with 40K miles on it. If the link doesn't work, go here and seek it out:
http://www.kbb.com/

That's the way to go and I might do so with my next vehicle. Jaguars depreciate quickly up front, but hold their value better if you buy used. I think the father in-law paid $27,000 for his at a dealership and it had just over 30K miles on it. Had an alignment issue to get fixed, but that was cheap and easy to fix. Damn nice car for the cash and blows a 325 away in every single way. Oh, this is a $60K car new!

I am looking for a 6 speed 540I. It has not been easy finding a good condition Bimmer at a great price with CPO.
