Online Purchase and PCD Pickup
I'm not real happy with the results of my attempt to negotiate a deal for a 2015 X5 with my local dealership. I understand that some dealers, regardless of where they are located, are willing to sell a vehicle to be picked up at the PCD.
Has anyone actually done this? How did you handle having a car to trade in (sell)? Would you do it again? While I would rather buy locally (still do PCD), unless the local dealer is willing to negotiate more, I may look at this option. |

As far as selling your car. First, get the dealers you are working to make you and offer. Sometimes they will give you a high offer and bump up the price of the truck, make sure you're not shooting yourself in the foot by focusing on purchase price. After you have numbers from 2 dealers, take the car to Carmax (or, actually, I'd do this first if you have one nearby). They will buy the car, no questions asked, and will give you a written offer. If you go down the PCD route, sell it to Carmax. If not, you can use their offer to negotiate your dealer up on trade in price. |

There is a disadvantage of going this route which is sales tax. Without trading a vehicle the entire price of the sale is subject to 6% sales tax here in PA. If you trade a vehicle one only has to pay the taxes on the difference. So this needs to be taken into consideration as well. |
