Hmmm, while it's not "apples-to-apples", the numbers that I've run seem to indicate that only the 3-Series wagon is being left out in the cold. True the 3-Series sedan may well be seeing slightly lower numbers than say the 3-Series coupe or any of the 5-Series cars, but geez, the 3-Series wagon numbers are so high that I'm actually wondering if we shouldn't pony up an get a 5-Series wagon.
 
BTW, I haven't looked for leasing numbers for so long that I actually don't know where to look for money factors and residuals.
 
Best Regards,

From what I've seen on this board, I believe the 328i sedan MF is lower than the 335i. Looking back several posts, I saw someone report a MF of 0.00175 for the 328i vs. the 0.0021 for the 335i. kyfdx or Car_man could verify if you inquire.
 
The 335i has great power and a high fun-to-drive factor, but everything I've seen and heard about the 328i is that it's no slouch. I currently have a 2005 330Ci with the ZHP package. From seat of the pants feel, it was pretty similar to the performance of a 328i coupe that I test drove but you would expect that given similar HP and Torque numbers. But the 335i was noticeably faster than either of them (I guess that's what 300 HP vs 230 HP will do). I couldn't really notice any significant handling differences, but I didn't beat on either of them during the test drives. As is said here many times, you can't go wrong with whatever you choose. Both are gerat cars. Good luck deciding!

Here's something I lifted from an earlier posting on this board:
 
However, those links won't do you much good without knowing the residual values & money factors for the BMW(s) you're interested in. Go to the Bimmerfest web site, select Forums & go to the Ask-A-Dealer section. At or near the top will be the current lease rates for every BMW sold in the U.S. These can change monthly (usually don't, but can), so if it's a few months before you're ready to pull the trigger, be sure to recheck.

To the above post, there is also a $825 fee rolled into the lease that they say is a charge from BMW.

based on bimmerfest, the march base rate for a 328i sedan / 36mo lease is 0.00175. it does make a disclaimer that rates vary by region.... good luck!
