Employee Discount
 
If other car makers offer employee discount pricing to anyone, would you like to see BMW also make such an offer? :cheers

That's only for companies that have already failed at life and can't get customers even if they give their cars away for free...

So, NO, BMW should stick to it's normal non-discounted prices.

Not like any of this matters to me, because I don't see myself buying a new BMW anytime soon.

I just can't see myself in a Banglemobile :(

I also have problems with spending my retirement for a shiny new toy. My Wife would be one of those problems. :)

So any discount less than 90% would be of little use to me :(

Discount cheap cars, not bmws.

Interesting! :)

although i wouldn't be against a BMW discount for current BMW owners who can affird the non discounted price..... i'm sure we'd all like that :cheers :drive2 :spin :redspotda :woot :wiggle :rock

It's just another sales gimmick. I'd rather see better finance terms for the average person.

it would be nice to get a discount. just dont advertise it as we are failures in life.

EDIT: just realized i copied torque, so i agree with torque

very true...I agree. :rock

no, because if you discount it a good amount, we start getting retards buying BMWs, and thats exactly the opposite of BMW, only a strict specific crowd can buy them(or should, at least)

Cellardoor 06-18-2005 11:25 AM

just as a heads up the reason that the discount is comming around is cause they are all GM owned companys and GM is pretty much fucked right now and down the tubes so they are just scrambeling for any way to sell thier cars!

if you noticed with the quick talk at the end its not for 2006 models...

TerryY 06-18-2005 12:21 PM

They are trying to break the Rebate cycle. People wait until there is a rebate before buying now.

The 2005 cars need to be cleared so here we go with an across the board MY 2005 discount rather than a complicated rebate scheme.

BMW sells to monied folks anyway. Any suggestion that they may have received a discount on their new 7 would be an insult. That would make it almost like buying a fake Rolex :(

You as 3 drivers are considered future 7 drivers by BMW--all cash sales too :)

Torque 06-18-2005 12:29 PM

What about us 5 drivers ? Are we to be considered to be the drivers of some future 8 ?

:D

TerryY 06-18-2005 12:41 PM

If you were driving a newer 5er they would consider your training to be progressing quite nicely :)

Now a question for you Torque.

If you won a FREE current model BMW of your choice, what would you take home?
