Thanks, Heidi528. I thought you were being sarcastic. I'm actually a 21 year-old Junior American Studies major. More than one person has told be I should study law, but I'm hesitant to spend more time (and money) in school after I graduate. But then what can one do with a bachelor's degree today?... Oh well.
So, therefore, don't take anything I say as educated advice.
Have they actually made the offer or not? Even if they have, it sounds like a last-ditch measure to keep you as a customer, and I suppose settling with them is your decision. When you factor in depreciation (which on a 7-Series is higher than any other BMW model), $5,000 for a 2004 is a great deal, as you said. I'm sure the new 7 will be much improved, but you already said you liked the Audi. Anyway, the dealership will inevitably look out for their own interests before yours; given the money and time you've already spent, do you really want to give them $5K more? And if you get the new 745Li, what will happen to the nice Audi?
Of course, you should talk to your attorney.
