328i coupe Lease-DC by jpetros

New to the forum.
 
I am looking for a 2009 328 coupe with automatic, prem, heated seats, bluetooth and IPod adapter. 3 years 15K miles per year.
 
1) I've contacted a few dealers and received some ballpark numbers including...$6600 down with $435 per month. I have been unable to have them send me the exact numbers (Residual, MF etc)Does this down payment sound extremely high?? I am comparing this to the recent ad and understand my specs are somewhat higher but $6600 down??
 
2) I've also working on receiving a quote from a Lease Broker (still in process) I've been told that the residual would be for 44%. Does this seem low?
 
What is the residual value for 36 months 15K?
What can i expect on a monthly and total down payment? Also, can anyone recommend a respectable lease broker?
 
Sharing your experiences is much appreciated.

Cash for clunkers is dead. Don't know about the incentive(was to expire 8/09). I bought mine last month as described.

2010 335i coupe by 3_cpe

I was going to take advantage of the 1.9% interest rate last month and pull the trigger on a 335i Coupe. Dealer offered me $1k below invoice on anything he had on the lot and invoice on anything he had to trade for. I was pretty specific about what I wanted so they ended up bringing something in. After finding some issues with that car we agreed they would order me a 2010 exactly the way I wanted it and give it to me at invoice. Good deal I think?, except now I am in wait mode for 8-10 weeks and still not sure what the 2010 interest rates at the time of delivery are going to be.
 
Doesn't look like any changes from '09 to '10 model and invoice prices are exactly the same.
 
Any comments on my experience or decision?

there appears to be an ongoing cash-to-dealer incentive of $4500 for the 335d .

Exactly my thoughts when I asked the salesman when I picked up the car, since I was offered the extended 2 yr/50K warranty for $2100 as a dealer add-on. His response was that in certifying the car as CPO, they usually replace all the tires and the CPO extra cost is folded into the financing. The extra $900 the dealer will charge for CPO would probably cover the cost of the new tires.
 
My greater concern was I was told that at the end of the lease the purchase option price is not negotiable. By the dealer reposessing the car, they could then negotiate the price if I decide to buy it. This sounds contrary to everything I read about exercising the purchase option at the end of a lease, but maybe BMW does things differently?

Is this a good price for an '07 328i CPO by tl5

Got the dealer down to ~33k (including TTL) OTD with a listing price of $36.5k (not including TTL)
 
Less than 20k miles and standard options with I believe what looks like the sports package. No navigation.
 
What do you think?

Can you tell us where this information about an ongoing $4500 factory-dealer incentive came from? I haven't heard this anywhere on the bmw forums.

got a quick question: i'm new to the whole car leasing (car buying) situation and wanted some insight regarding price realated to invoice and money factor.
 
whats is bmw finacial best money factor rate for a 36 month 12k lease for a 328 i sedan 2009?
 
also, i live in LA, and i know its a competitive market. What do you think is the best price in relation to invoice to be expected to negotiate on lease? that is is 500 over the best price right now in souther ca? 1000 below invoice?
 
I have one offer from a dealer willing to go 300 under invoice with a .00235 money factor.
