Advertising and appearance charges
I had negotiated a $1000 over invoice price with my dealer but as it came time to write the check, I saw a $530 fee for advertising as part of the invoice cost - something they claim is charged by BMW NA and a $200 appearance package - to clean the car before delivery. Have you seen such charges elsewhere?

MACO is usually around 300 - 350 (Depends on the state) Dealer fee varies. Mine is around $200. I guess you can bargain on this and the amount can be changed as it is internal to the dealer. |

Thats right. If you have received breakdown on the price that you were quoted, this should be listed.

In my experience, dealers will try to add MACO if you are negotiating up from invoice, but not separately add it in if you are negotiating down from MSRP. That being said, I believe the MACO charges are included in the bottom line price if you look at the actual invoice.
