One more thing is it possible to tell the dealership to order the car to your specifications without you just picking it up from the lot on the same day? If so would they charge you extra and how long would it take?

I've been going through some dealers to get quotes on new 328i's (2009) lease and they always want to stuff you with a ~$1,500 inception fee even if you tell them you want to put $0 down. When asked what are those fees they all reply, "You know, first month's payment, tag, title, taxes." But it turns out they're probably making money on those inception fees. What's legitimate to have in those fees? - I'm adding the $825 "destination charge" to the invoice cost of the car - One of the dealers had a $950 "bank fee" inside that inception fee -- what a scam! (Or is this legit?) I also learned that if you currently lease a BMW, you can order your custom car from the dealer at no additional cost (it makes no difference to them -- it's just one fewer vehicle from their allocation), and BMWfs will extend your current lease at your current payment for up to 6 months -- pretty sweet. Also, if anybody could help with Jan '09 money factors on a 2009 328i, leased for 36 months with 10k miles, I would appreciate it. Thanks a lot!

Replying to: hana80 (Dec 17, 2008 11:41 pm) I see that the dealer quoted you a payment that includes a large down payment. I always advise consumers not to make large down payments when leasing. Those who make them risk losing them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be slightly higher, you would be much better off going with a zero down lease. It is difficult for me to know what a good monthly payment would be for this car without knowing what its MSRP is. You don't even need the dealer to get this information. It is available right here at Edmunds.com over in the New Vehicle Pricing section. While you are there, grab the dealer invoice price of the car that you want as well. Let me know what both of these numbers are and I will calculate a sample lease payment on the exact car that you want for you. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum |
