Ok so this is what happened:
 
2008 328i
36 month lease
15000 miles/year
$1182.54 down payment
License Fee $291
Tax on Down $97.56
California Tire Fee $8.75
First Month's Payment including tax $420.15
(This equals Total Drive OFF $2000)
M.F. 0.0009
Cap Cost $33220
Doc Fee $45
DMV Electronic Titling Fee $28
Acquisition Fee $725
(This equals Gross Cap Cost of $34018)
Monthly Payment is $388.13 plus tax (=$420.15)
Residual $20594
 
What do you think?

2008 335 Prem + Sport by mshtpc

Car_Man,
 
I got this lease quote from a SoCal dealer:
 
MSRP 46,225
Base Cap 42,225
Cap redux 1,000
Residual 56% (15k miles/yr)
36 months
MF 0.00142
$1960 total drive off
 
This gives a payment of $559/mo (tax rate is 7.25%).
I think the MF is too high for the '08 335. Should this not be around 0.0009?

swong, it's hard to evaluate these lease deals without the MSRP. I can tell you that the Money Factor Buy Rate is .00075, so you paid a bit above that.

Also, what is the current acquisition fee for BMW? I was at my dealer today and he said it was now something like $925 or $950 (I forget to write down what number he had).

Car_man, thanks for the reply. I need your help with one more thing as i am getting the runaround from BMW dealerships here in Cali.
 
Here is my plan (questions below): Since the current program ends Dec 31, i plan to place an order for a European delivery and lock the rates 90 days from Dec 31. So by Mar 31, 2009, i would sign the lease and fly in April to Germany for pick up.
 
  • Question 1) Does the above plan make sense?

  • Question 2) I am being told that BMW changed the rules and can now only lock the Money factor for 90 days (west coast) but NOT the residual. Have you heard of such a change?

  •  
    Thanks!

    New Lease on Dec 08 or wait till Jan 09??? by paowow
    Nov 24, 2008 (3:03 pm)
    Reply
    My 325i lease is due on Jan 31, 09 and I am wondering if I should get a new lease (considering 2009 328i Sedan) on Dec of this year to get a better deal or wait till Jan. of next year.
     
    People tells me that End of the year deals are the best, but with recent struggles in economy, I wonder if BMW will come up with better deal in Jan. 09, when sales are usually low.
     
    Thanks in advance!
