Does anyone know what the dealer margin on a 535xi is?????

Thanks.
So which dealer did you go to, I hope its not Herb Chamber BMW of Boston, they are the most expensive dealer in MA.
I would say you are getting abused pretty bad. Since there is currently a $1500 option credit offer by BMW USA, the dealer is pretty much selling you the car at MSRP.
The invoice is about 7% off the MSRP, dealer cost is another $1500-$2000 or so below invoice. I recently bought a 2012 535xi at 10% off MSRP including the option credit from BMW of Shrewsbury. They were the cheapest out of 5 dealership I visited in MA.
