With the premium package credit, you can legitimately offer over $1K below invoice or more and still get a decent deal. Another thing I noticed is that versus its competition, BMW is at least trying to push decent deals. The Audi dealerships I dealt with "said" they wanted to sell the Q7s and were pushing big dollars off MSRP (from 66,000 to 60,000), but a 43% residual after 3 years versus the 57% for the X5 makes that a terrible deal. Case in point, Audi could not even get below 940/mos including tax for the MSRP 66,000 Q7, which, mind you, was not as well loaded as the 68,000 MSRP X5 I got, nor can it compare in driving quality, etc. Also, don't forget the better maintenance package you get with a BMW.

For comparison, and I did not verify this, Audi claimed their overage for mileage is 25 cents. |

From BMWFS, extra miles above 15K can be purchased at $.15 per mile. It is $.25 per mile if you turn the car in and go over at the end of the lease. You can purchase extra miles during your lease for $.16 per mile. BMW's high residuals make them very attractive to lease vs. the competition, especially at or below invoice pricing. I've read somewhere that BMW has been getting killed with off lease cars that aren't worth as much as their "pumped up" residuals and sometime soon may not offer such generous residuals for leases.

Replying to: wtf_123 (Aug 06, 2008 4:08 pm) My 3 choice are X6 FX and RX not so sure about RX. I am really considering getting X6 would like to know how does it compare to X5 FX and RX? How fast does X6 v6 compare to the x5 v8? is the X6 louder and less smother than X5 RX FX? I am really confused. Haven't seen the new FX so don't know about it but the price is a lot better than X6. Personally I don't like nissan thats the reason not sure about Infiniti. My first choice is X6 but is very expensive currently and not sure about the turbo engine and its a first year model. I wonder will it last for 5 years? How reliable is it? I've read a lot of issues with the X5 I am sure you already know after reading my post how confused I am. I might end up with a normal sedan.
