#11790 of 11920 2013 328i sedan lease question by jaty

Nov 21, 2012 (11:15 am)

Hello, I am new to car leasing. I found the following from a local dealer's website (So Cal). I wonder if it is a good deal?
 
2013 328i Sedan
 
•$298* per month (plus tax)
•36 month lease
•10,000 miles per year
•$500 down payment
 
Comparing to BMWUSA, monthly payment is $339 and $2750 down (including holiday credit and loyalty cash). 10k miles/year is sufficient for me. I emailed dealer for MSRP/selling price/money factor/residual value. But dealer did not reply. Just based on the low down payment and monthly payment, is it a good deal assuming it is a base model?

Yes, base model , which dealer is this from? Locally the dealers have 2013 328i $279/m + tax 39 months, 10K/yr however, it is 3K down + tax and Lic... So not too sure if your is really $500 down..

Not sure if it is allowed to post dealer's link. I can PM you if you want.
 
In fact I just found another lease deal from the same dealer:
 
2013 X3 xDrive28i for $298* a month (plus tax)
•$298* a month plus tax (holiday credit and loyalty cash included)
•36 Month Lease
•10,000 miles per year
•$3,000 down
 
Not sure what the gimmicks are behind the deal. I would think even with a base X3 model and $3k down, $298/month plus tax is a good deal? Based on previous experience with this dealer, they often quoted wrong price just to get us call them. I am not sure if this time they will honor the deal, or what shall I ask for to find out what exactly the true picture is?
 
As a general question, I wonder if there is any price difference in the finally selling price between lease and purchase? Let's say I see folks on this forum purchased the same model in similar location for X dollors before TTL, shall I target the same selling price for my lease negotiation?

tell them to email you the price you have discussed. If they refuse to they are playing with you. If they do then you got the deal!

Hey carman, do you have the money factor and residual value for this car for a 36 mth lease, 10k miles? Does BMW have any special offers for this vehicle. They are advertising up to $3500 holiday incentive?

#11798 of 11920 2012 328i Pricing Question by mhegde

Nov 30, 2012 (2:37 pm)

Hey, I have an offer to buy 2012 328i for $39,499. The MSRP is $44, 499 for this alpine white/coral red interior with tech+premium+sport package. Since it becomes almost an year old model in 2013, would like to know if the price is right.
  Sorry if it is a repeat question that someone already asked.
 
Thanks in advance
