#9520 of 10297 what's good lease price 328xi by irish111 Jan 16, 2009 (5:03 pm)
Going to the dealer (Prestige BMW in Ramsey, nj) tomorrow...what would be a good deal? 328xi automatic, cold weather pkg., ipod, power front seats (jet black, leatherette) MSRP 39320 Invoice 36,190 Paid price: 37,740 (dealer said it's 500 over the "real" invoice-BMW's-bull! MF .00175 residual 60%           584 per month plus MV fee (268.50)at signing. ALL other fees rolled into              monthly payment.including security deposit. I get a lower price on my lease calculator...2 other dealers (Park and Circle) said same monthly payment and fees~ Other questions: Anyone know what are all the fees for this car in NJ? Is the 825 Dest used for calculating the price or should it be added later? Should i negotiate it down to 625-real cost? What are the taxes?

Replying to: irish111 (Jan 16, 2009 5:05 pm) I would shop around. Talk to another dealer and see if they can beat this price. BMW is doing pretty good becasue of their promotional rate, but still, they want your business. I assumed destination charge would be included in the price anyways regardless of where you end up.   If they stick to the price, talk them into adding accessories for free to the tune of where you want the price to be..

Replying to: irish111 (Jan 16, 2009 4:40 pm) I think you are confusing destination charges (part of the invoice and MSRP) with the acquisition fee on the lease.   Also, the acquisition fee is $725 now.. (with the dealer option to mark up to $925).

#9525 of 10297 security deposit by nyccarguy Jan 17, 2009 (7:42 pm)
Pay your security deposit upfront & take the lower money factor. Replies to this message: irish111 (Jan 17, 2009 8:20 pm) kyfdx (Jan 18, 2009 9:58 am)
#9526 of 10297 Re: security deposit [nyccarguy] by irish111 Jan 17, 2009 (8:20 pm)
Replying to: nyccarguy (Jan 17, 2009 7:42 pm) Evrything I read said to roll it into monthly payments. But I did the math and the difference with .00175 money factor is $2.14 less, and 600 / 36= 16.66 so that adds to 18.80 more per month and at the end of 36 months...36 x 18.80 = $677! that I don't get back. So, why do they say to roll it in? Replies to this message: kyfdx (Jan 18, 2009 9:58 am)

Replying to: irish111 (Jan 17, 2009 7:23 pm) To answer your question, a car deal is never a car deal until you take delivery and drive away.

Replying to: irish111 (Jan 17, 2009 8:20 pm) If they were actually "rolling the deposit" into the payments, then the money factor wouldn't change.. You would just have a higher payment because of capitalizing that amount.   If they are waiving the security deposit, then the bump in the money factor is .00015, not .00025... So, your money factor would be .0019, assuming they aren't bumping it up for extra profit.   As noted above, the waiver isn't a very good deal, especially on a 36 month lease.. Make the security deposit, then insist on the base money factor.   You can also either pay the acquisition fee, roll it in (i.e.: capitalize it), or waive it in exchange for a bump in the money factor of .00035 (usually a bad idea). I always capitalize the fee.   regards, kyfdx

Replying to: randyjstark (Jan 01, 2009 10:33 pm) Randyjstark. How did you manage to get them to agree to give you back the MSD (money security deposits) even in the case of a total loss? From my understanding, the security deposits are forfeited when you get into an accident. You can have a minor fender bender and they will still use that to take your security deposits.
