2009 BMW 335 xi LEASE HELP by ltyenta
Jul 09, 2009 (11:51 am)
Reply
I recently ordered a new 2009 BMW 335xi. I was locked into the June rates which have changed for July. My money factor is lower and already had to haggle numerous times with the dealer over the first payment that they gave me so are looking for some help here.
The first payment they have given me was without the $1000 rebate since my car would not be here until mid August and it's back so I'm unsure how it's applied.
 
36,000 mile lease
MSRP 55,820
Residual 59%
MF = .00165
Sales price $52,995
Sales tax 9% (PA)
Rebate $1000.00
The payment I came up with is $709.80
 
Can someone help???
Thanks

Don't know much about a lease except you always have a car payment and Dave Ramsey calls them a "Fleece".
 
Kidding aside, my opinion is the dealer's love leases for a reason, $$$$$. If you think about it, you can buy the car at the lowest possible cash price (historic buyers market), finance the thing for next to nothing with no money at closing, and later on if you choose sell it on the open market in 36 months or so without worrying about all the miles and factors, and other minusha that always favors the dealers. Basically your doing what their doing on the back end - they call it pre-owned, you call it 1 owner with perfect documentation. What could be better?

I hear what you're saying. Perhaps I'll see what the payment would be buying the car. I have two weeks to decide. I had searched the money factor then called another dealer who was kind enough to let me know it's actually .00145. I worked the payment and clarified with the other dealer that the payment should be $711.36 which is $70.00 less than when I originally ordered the car. I called my dealer he agreed to the new payment not to lose me as a customer.
Thanks for you're help!!

Deals on custom ordered 328i by dalntgenius

I was looking to custom order a 328i with all of the options/colors I wanted and the dealer only offered me $2k off of MSRP. I've never tried to negotiate over a car that has not been built yet. Any feedback on how to negotiate in a situation like this? What should my expectations be for how much they would move?
Thanks

They will sell the car at 10% behind MSRP, but it would likely involve them looking at available (already out there somewhere) cars that they could trade for. I'm speaking from experience, on July 2nd I let them authorize my credit card for $1,000 to get a 335i hard loaded that was on the water (on it's way over from Germany) for $46,500 on a $51,845 MSRP car. That's 10.3% off MSRP. You gotta print out the exact car w every option you want at BMWUSA.COM and take it in and tell them find me the car and I'll pay $XXXXX. Be ready to walk to another dealership. I guarantee they will be calling back. They can still make a little money at 10% off MSRP. They probably won't order the car from the factory for you, but you never know. Good luck. Look at my previous posts on my deal. FYI....we backed out (got cold feet) and they never charged our credit card for the $1,000 - they were very, very nice about everything. I felt bad, but we decided we just didn't want to roll $50K drive out into a car. Atleast not yet anyway. Looking at a loaded V6 Accord Sedan w NAV for around $26,000 on a $31,615 MSRP. Sleeping better at night, but my Beemer days are still ahead!! Good luck to you and let me know if you need the dealer/contact I dealt with. Dave
