Need some advice please... by eddyp

I am currently leasing an A6 2.7t which is coming due on Feb. 20th, and I have the option to extend it for 3 months. I am very interested in leasing a Z4 3.0 for my next car and I have done some research on edmunds and some other sites. I've heard that the new 06' Z4's will be out in mid 06' about summer time. I think the 3.0si's will have 255hp compared to the current 225hp which is really tempting me to wait. The only thing thats keeping me from waiting though is that currently the 05' Z4 3.0's have great deals but I'm not sure if they will in February when my current lease comes due. Should I just wait and see what the deals are in Feb? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

While more power is always better.. The current Z4 3.0 is definitely not lacking in the power department.. It wouldn't bother me to lease one now, even if the new one comes out next summer.
 
The only problem with waiting to lease... Sometimes, late in the model year, incentives will shift from leasing to purchasing.. If you are open to either, then this isn't a problem.. But, if you are intent on leasing, sometimes it can actually be more expensive to wait.
 
Of course, I don't have a crystal ball, and there is no telling what might happen.. But, if I had two months still to go on my lease, I'd take my chances..
 
One last thing.. are you sure the '06 comes out next summer? I thought it was February or March...

Thanks kyfdx,
 
I read an article somewhere, I think it was on autospies that said the model will come out in the summer time, but Im not sure, I might have misread it. If it is coming out in Feb or March that is awesome!

Everything that I've seen says the new Z4 coupe will be coming out in June... I'm pretty sure the new '06 convertibles will be out before that, because they've already stopped taking orders for the '05s...

Thats good news, I just hope that the '06 convertibles will be out soon. Is there an article anywhere which talks about it? (I searched a few times through google but didn't come across one)

I looked around for a specific reference, but all I could find was a post from a BMW sales rep back in November, giving the time-line for the '06 models....
 
I'll check around further..

He stated that the dealers already have the ordering forms and that the '06 models will start production in February and roll into the dealers in March!

Yeah.. I just got the same info from a reliable source..
 
I wouldn't look for any killer lease deals early on, though....

Now thats what I'm afraid of. I dont know too much about leasing but do you think that if I lease it when it does come out, or if I pre-order it, I would be able to get a monthly payment of around $500-$550 (inc. taxes) if I put like $3k down for 36 months 10k mi/yr, or would that just be speculating (since I dont know the money factor)?
 
If my lease calculations are correct, with the same terms for a '05 3.0 with premium, sport, smg, xenon, metallic paint and heated seats I'm looking at around $430-$470/mo. using Nov. money factor

I'd just be speculating...
 
I would expect the lease to be at least $100-$150 higher per month than the current model, all things being equal.. at least to start..
 
If they don't sell well, then after a few months, the prices may moderate.... or not..
