Here are the deals I have on the table for a 2008 X3, configured with Premium Package, Servotronic steering, xenon headlights, privacy glass, heated front seats, heated steering wheel, alpine white (no charge):
  
24 Month Lease
15,000 miles per year
MSRP $43525.00
SALE PRICE $41425.00
LEASE END VALUE $32643.75 (75%)
MO PAYMENT $620.54 INCLUDING TAX
DUE AT SIGNING $1756.70 (650 SEC. DEPOSIT INCLUDED)
MONEY FACTOR .00270
   
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -----------------
36MO
15000 PER YEAR
MSRP $43525.00
SALE PRICE $41425.00
LEASE END VALUE $28291.25 (65%)
MO PAYMENT $595.55 INCLUDING TAX
DUE AT SIGNING $1731.71 (650 SEC. DEPOSIT INCLUDED)
MONEY FACTOR .00270
   
The selling price for the car is $41425, which is $1365 over invoice, but the dealer has to pay MAKO and Training Fees that aren't on the invoice, which brings my cost to $985 over 'invoice'...
  
This seems to be a great deal for this car. The only rub is that I have an even more aggressive deal from Acura on their RDX base that's basically at invoice and monthly payments for 36 months ~$453/mo with no cap cost reduction....
  
I'm stuck - $595/mo for the X3 or $453/mo for the RDX.... simple economics will probably win out, but I prefer the X3 (narrowly).
  
hope this helps someone.

These boards appear to be largely unmoderated. I've leased two cars over the last 6 years and found these forums to be indespensible, largely due to timely response from the forum hosts. Alas, no longer seems to be the case at Edmunds.

I can assure you that the boards are not unmoderated... The Prices Paid boards are for members to report their prices.
 
Is their some specific information that you needed? Perhaps, I can point you in the right direction.

Koberry,
I drove both the X3 and RDX this Saturday. As a returning BMW lessee I can do about $100 better on the X3 with 10k, but the 15k is worth about $40/mo.
 
Base RDX is available at $425 or so including 7% NJ sales tax, so shop around some more.
 
Still not sure which one to get, but the X3 needs an update.

LEASE ADVICE [CARMAN] & ALL by beemerseeker

Hello All,
  
I am a leasing newbie. I am looking for info on two vehicles, the 2008 528xi and the x3. I appreciate all of the postings from you all as they have been extremely informative. I am not going to be able to take advantage of the incentive for 12/07 because I will not be able to purchase until mid-end of January.
  
I live in NNJ and would like to find out this info because according to this forum this is what I need in order to negotiate this purchase:
1 - Invoice price on a 528xi w/nav & cold pkgs, the money factor, residual percentage, and any January incentives you may know about. Looking to lease for 24/36 mos whichever works out better with 15k/yr
. Also, info adding prem pkg as well.
2 - Invoice price on a x3 w/nav & cold pkgs, the money factor, residual percentage, and any January incentives you may know about. Looking to lease for 24/36 mos whichever works out better with 15k/yr
  
Thanks, also any tips or rec's for dealerships and salepersons and also other deals made are appreciated.

Fair Deals by bimmerdriver

Just leased my new X3 from Laurel BMW in Westmont, Ill. dealer very close to invoice price and at current lease rates (RV - 67%, MF - 0.00255). Knowing how to calculate your payments is a must at any place you go, but this dealership's internet sales department was very willing to take a low profit deal and did not insult my intelligence in the process. I found some very helpful lease calculators on bimmerfest.com under Ask-A-Dealer --> Lease Payment Calculation link. Edmund's price list for optional equipment is spot on, so don't let anyone tell you otherwise like they tried at Bill Jacob's dealership in Naperville , and the guys at Laurel always replied to emails and were very professional.

Gee, BMWUSA is offering some mighty high residuals on the X3. Too bad BMW Canada is not quite as generous.
