Replying to: r74g (Apr 24, 2007 7:53 am) But the $9 extra a month is still confusing me. How much do you think they would charge for cargo and mats and whatnot? |

Replying to: vnaar1 (Apr 22, 2007 8:13 pm) Adding to this question, does anybody know where you can look up the historical lease rates. I am not under any kind of time frame so am curious if it would make sense to wait till summer or the end of the 2nd quarter (June). Not sure if rates are regional but I am located in FL.

Replying to: jtla (Apr 25, 2007 11:41 pm) Do you know what the residual values were over that period? "I would suggest that you lock in April's rate and wait to see how May or June's rates go." How does one going about locking in a rate (which sounds like the best thing to do right now)?

The commends here have been very helpful. I am shopping for a rather plain configuration: 328i sedan (flat black color) sport package auto transmission A couple of questions that aren't clear after looking at the BMW website: 1. Are fold-down rear seats an extra-cost OPTION no matter what? Or is that just if you want the ski bag and 60/40? 2. I live in Los Angeles. Aside from the $775 destination charge, what is typical for doc, registration and other fees? (I'd like to negotiate a deal this weekend, and want to be as prepared as possible. I plan on sending bid requests this evening via email to several dealers). Any other advice? Much appreciated! - Hominus

Replying to: david_fl (Apr 26, 2007 9:15 am) Donna has mentioned that you can lock in rates through dealer. You can also lock in the rates by submitting credit application on line at BMW website, although you still need to designate a dealer in that process. If you do not order your car, I believe the lock-in is good for 60 days.

Replying to: hominus1 (Apr 26, 2007 7:20 pm) 2. The documentation fee is limited to $45 by law in California. If you negotiate car price as "dealer invoice plus $XXX", dealers will include MACO ($380) and training fee ($180) in dealer invoice. DMV fee and license should be less than 1% of your car price.
