What are the 'other' fees associated with purchasing a new BMW and their costs?

Freight/Pre Delivery Inspection
Tire Levy
A/C

That's all I can think of, I think it's generally the same for most new cars. I could call up the dealership but I don't like wasting people's time, especially giving the salesman false hope of making a sale. I figured I would ask here first.

Thanks

Depends on the model, gas guzzler tax on some right??? I think there's one other tax as well, can't remember what it's called though.

Looking at an 2004 325 Cab

Also, what is this fully automatic soft top? An option for $1980. Meaning, if I don't pick that option, I have to manually roll up the top? Cause that is freaking weird, especially for $50K+convertible?:dunno:

i think its the stowing away part of the convertible, like w/o that option it folds down mechanically but you have to secure it down into the trunk manually whereas the fully automatic will fold it in the trunk for you?

just a guess :dunno:

Yah, I think the car is very well equipped for its priced although underpowered. However, this is a manual 325 which should be quicker than my automatic 323:rofl: Plus I'm not a racer so I'm looking for a good compromise everything considered.

I'm going to call up BMW on Monday since I know a guy in sales and see what is up with this soft top option. The only option I am considering is the auto dimming mirror for trucks or assholes who like to highbeam:thumbsdow Other than that, I'm impressed with the package.

Colour is Steel Grey Metallic:bigpimp:
