Hi gardis -
 
What they do is make the car really fast. Because I lease as opposed to buy, I'm not really concerned about things like long-term reliability, maintenance expense, etc. The car's a blast to drive.

I been driving BMW's for 25 years...the twin turbo is very fast and a pleasure to drive
I lease it for 36 months with the full maintenance......it is worth the extra $$$$$
 
I compared it to the 528..no comparison
 
good luck

Thanks guys. But you are both leasing. You have nothing to lose actually, right? At the end of the 3 years, you say goodbye to the car. I keep the car so I have to look a little deeper into it. I'm also looking into 2007 530i, two nice ones I've seen at separate dealers in CT. I think that's more in my keeping. I can't say I need a "really fast" car. But I do like a sporty looking car. Thanks again.

Search for New Inventory by weno2

Is there a way to find out - other than going though the website of the dealers in the Region - to find a model and color? The BMW website allows a search for pre-owned, but I didn't see one for new (except for "Get a Quote"). I'm looking for a new Red, 535xDrive, w/AT, Cold and Premium packages (no Sport or Navi).

I am getting 20.8 MPG city 23 MPG highway
 
535i X drive with twin turbo..manual 6 speed
 
worth it even if you spend an extra $5 on each fill up
 
this is definitely not a gas guzzler

Took me 10 minutes to find a red one. Dealer in WilkesBarre Pa. phone 570 288 7411. Msrp 59075. You can buy and have it shipped to your house. Probably a few more -- lots of search engines on new cars but it can take time. Have fun.

Wow, someone has to really have a stable job, and a fabulous income to consider dropping $60,000+ on a new vehicle. And in one year or less, that care lost 25% of its value. Right? I love BMW's, but that's why I stick with the CPO program.

Actually that 25% reflects the asking price on used cars. The trade in or auction price is much worse. Another %10 at least. Your talking CPO and I'm talking CPR.

528i lease deals for dec by sss2

Does anyone know what the current leasing deals are on the 2008 528i? It looks like my dealer still has plenty of 08's left and I know that BMW has advertised a $499/mo. deal. I'd like to know the actual MF and residuals that they are authorized to use this month and any recent deals.

Swapalease.com has one or $490 3 years 10k per with 0 down. You have to search the site and keep clicking on cars --- some have big down payments and low per month but in the 500 range the deals look good. You could use the info to press your local dealer or have it shipped. They have an 800 # so have at it.
