Replying to: coby03 (Apr 06, 2005 5:50 am) Are y'all saying that the base money factor rate on a 3yr lease for a 325CI (is it different if it's not a 330CI) is .0008 - I heard .001 and negotiated it for .0012 believing that that was the best available. Please advise as soon as possible, AK

Replying to: coby03 (Apr 06, 2005 5:50 am) Any idea what kind of payment difference I am looking at if I go with 15k per year instead of 12k. Thanks for your help!
#3527 of 9005 Re: coby03--sorry about that [coby03] by blueguydotcom Apr 06, 2005 (8:56 am)
Replying to: coby03 (Apr 06, 2005 4:00 am) Had potenzas - two sets now on my 330i zhp. The RE40s were definitely better than my S-01s. The s-01s had lousy grip and were loud. Switched to Kumhos. Grip's still lousy but they were $50-100 cheaper per tire so even if I have to replace them after 10-15k miles I'll be happier.
#3528 of 9005 anyone in NYC/Queens get a good deal.. by superdog Apr 06, 2005 (9:11 am)
Can you suggest a someone for me? I'm looking for a 36/mo 05' 330i or 330ci zero down. I've been catching up on the messages..but still a bit lost on the MF, residuals, incentives currently given.. is it 4 or 6 off msrp? I'd like to roll in taxes into the payment.. any idea how much the payments would be like? Zero down, options - 2005 330i Metallic Black Heated seats Sport Pkg Xenon Auto Steptronic Black Leather   Thanks!!
#3529 of 9005 superdog by blueguydotcom Apr 06, 2005 (9:33 am)
Find out the invoice of the 330i (ci does not have the incentive) you like, subtract 4200 from invoice and add back 400-700 on that price. That's your target.   leaseguide.com is an excellent calculator for figuring out leases on your own. I'd help with the tax thing but I don't know how NY charges taxes on leases. Sorry.

Replying to: amt7565 (Apr 05, 2005 7:42 pm) The state is Arizona. Tax is 8.1% Replies to this message: amt7565 (Apr 06, 2005 11:51 am)

Replying to: 1stbmw2 (Apr 06, 2005 9:42 am) Use this example for your lease calculations. Note: For Texas and IL the state taxes are calculated on the whole amount of the car. For other states see the example.   Actually the MSRP is $40,340. The negotiated price is $34,000.      -residual 54% = $40,340 x 0.54 = $21,783 -Monthly depreciation fee= (34,000-21,783)/36 = $339 -Monthly finance charge=(34K + 21,783)x 0.00225= $125. -Sales tax(any state example 6.8%)= ($339 + $125 )x .068 = $31.00     -Total monthy payment = $339 + $125 + $31 = $495.00   This is with first months payment, acquisition fee of $625 and other license/title fees due at signing.
#3532 of 9005 2006 Discounts by selm Apr 06, 2005 (8:07 pm)
Blueguydotcom,   I am looking to lease an e90 through ED through a San Diego dealer. I have not had too much luck getting one willing to negotiate off of sticker. Could you recommend the dealer that would take 1k off of the sticker in earlier posts. The dealership I have dealt with is quoting 64% residual for a 36 month 12K miles (65% for 10K) with a whopping .00305 money factor (~7.32%) before the ED markup. I don't think they are being upfront with me. Thanks for your help. Replies to this message: blueguydotcom (Apr 07, 2005 12:10 am) selm (Apr 07, 2005 10:14 am) blueguydotcom (Apr 07, 2005 11:09 am)

Replying to: selm (Apr 06, 2005 8:07 pm) Selm, I'd suggest...the rizzo method. Get the ED invoice price, write exactly what you want on the car, add it up, and at the end pad it with a clear line that shows dealer profit XXXXX. Fax that to all the dealers you want. Shipo swears by this method and on other forums it's suggested too.   I've heard Shelly, Valencia and Sterling will deal in socal on ED. Not heard much of San Diego dealers willing to bend over for ED. They apparently act like you should pay the published BMW prices. As if.   Now if you simply want a grand off, hit all the LA dealers with a call and maybe Cunningham in El Cajon.   Personally, I don't see the point in aiming to save just 1k. 5k off sticker...that's worth chasing. And it's worth blowing 1k to fly to Germany and pick the car up, maybe spend one day driving it there. 4 days out of your life and you save a bundle and you have a great story to tell people.
