Replying to: volvomax (Dec 30, 2008 11:33 am) I spoke to a competing dealer who checked and said that my dealer is paying BMW $17600 for the car, so the best he could do is match the $18K. Where/how would I be able to buy a similar car closer to the $15K price?

Is that because they have bank financing? Thanks. |

Replying to: soonercat (Dec 31, 2008 9:46 am) They've been "out of line" for years, but now the chickens have come home to roost (as the Chicago minister pointed out). BMW has been sucking up the upside-down residuals for quite awhile, but it's become beyond sustainable. I think it's called a house of cards. The next few years should be interesting for BMW leases.

Replying to: volvomax (Dec 30, 2008 10:22 am) Really like the navigator, but don't like the miles or the dealer. Does an offer of 23-4 sound unreasonable on the EB Exp?
