information/clarification before rating.  Thanks for your
understanding.


I contacted 4 different dealers -- in NJ, FL, TX, and CA.  Looks like
about a $46,000 - $48,000 sticker price on this car [new], depending
on how it's equipped.  You're looking at a maximum average of about 2%
discount.

Hi -

I don't understand what you're looking for.  What do you mean when you
say "true story?"

Hi -

Let me ask you it another way.  Are you, or someone else, looking to
buy a 330 convertible, and you want the best price?

FWIW, one of the biggest mistakes I ever made was to buy a BMW.  Get a
Merc, get a Jag, get a Lexus, get a Toyota!  Heck - get a horse!
Still - only my opinion - there must be lots of satisfied customers,
surely.  Aren't there?

Xarqi is absolutely right!

Toyota (& Lexus) are probably the best engineered (arguably
over-engineered) cars on the road.

Of course, BMW are sexy but, boy, does that come at a price.
