BMW Offers $4,500 Rebate on Diesel Models

Most people who buy a BMW are probably not going to have a clunker as a trade-in, so BMW is offering a $4,500 "eco-credit" rebate on its fuel efficient diesel models which include the BMW 335d and X5 xDrive35d.
The rebate still applies even if you don't have a clunker to trade in. It wouldn't matter for the X5 since it doesn't qualify for the "cash for clunkers" program (price is too high), but it is possible to get a $4,500 government voucher on the 335d on top of the $4,500 BMW rebate if you have a trade-in that qualifies.
This means you could potentially get a BMW 335d with a $9,000 discount. What's sweeter is you would also qualify for a $900 tax credit. It doesn't get much better than this.

TrueCar, RydeShopper, and CarsDirect are the best way to see the lowest car prices in your area. These sites show you no-haggle prices from dealers closest to you - and the deals are usually really good. This should be the first step you take when negotiating your car price.
