While you are researching the MF's for 2009, can you provide the 36 month, 15k miles/year MF and residuals for:
2009 328 XDrive Sedan
2009 335 XDrive Sedan
 
also if handy;
2008 328 Xi Sedan
2008 335 XI Sedan
 
Thanks for the assist.

Hi everyone, i got a quote yesterday for a 2009 328i coupe, with Preimum, Sport, Cold Weather, Navigation, and I-pod Adapter with a MSRP $46,300 and a sale price of $44,500, with $2000 drive off, and $615/month plus tax for 36months and 10k miles per year. the salesman told me that the residual value is 61%, i did not get the money factor, i m just wondering if this deal is reasonable or not?

Car_man, thanks so much for all the info. Wow, the money factor really jumped, it seems, and the residual dropped from 63% to 60%. Pretty ugly effect, financially.
 
Thanks!

2008 335i 36 month lease by firstlease

I just signed for a 2008 335i with NAV, sport, premium and most options
MSRP is 49390 (car was from April 2008-must have had price increase later?)
sell price is 44090
add tire warranty, mats and tint for 895
I was not told but the MF is .00145 (I locked in 2008 lease rates)
0 down, monthly payment is $689 including tax?
 
Is this a good deal, i want to feel good about it. I see the MF is much lower now on 2008's but the dealer also said the residual dropped 2 points. Is it a wash?
 
Thank you

2009 328CIC by davidt1

Hi Car_man,
 
I signed a lease on January 2nd to lock in the December rates on a 2009 328CIC convertible. The rates I received were .0020 MF and 61% residual for a 12K/36 month lease as you had supplied to me last month. The car is now on order for delivery by end of Feb. The dealer is willing to give me a lower rate if BMWFS drops thier rates in Jan or Feb. Can you please let me know the new Jan rates? By the way, just coming into effect in January, BMW raised the prices by a few hundred dollars on their cars...I just squeeked in under the wire.
 
Thanks Again,
 
David T

2009 3-series convertible lease (or smart-buy) by whichluxurycar

I am in Texas and interested in a lease (or smart-buy/baloon note), which ever is better economically.
 
I'm still debating between the 328CIC and the 335CIC. I am looking for a lease ~36 months and ~10k mile/year allowance.
 
Whenever anyone has the residual and lease factors (or the res and smart buy interest rate), I would very much appreciate having these.
 
Finally, is there any reason to expect a structural move to these rates in February?

OK - Got the new car this weekend. BADA$$!
 
The residual on a 15k lease for the 2009 335i is 56% and the base rate money factor is .00200.

BMW fees - what's BS, what's real? by joesao

Car_man,
 
Thanks a lot for clarifying the acquisition fee. You say it's $725 and that's what I'm telling dealers, and they're pushing me saying I'm $100 off!
 
It helps to have good info to push back. I can't believe how much these guys try to stuff fees into their numbers.
 
Here's one more:
- I'm being quoted a $925 "Bank fee" -- does everybody pay this or is this another profit center for the dealer?
 
Thanks!

BMW fees - what's BS, what's real? (Part II) by joesao

Car_man, sorry for the double post, but here's another one I just got from another dealer:
 
"do not forget to add to invoice price these items: floor mats, gas, predelivery inspection and a BMW Center advertisement group charge which amounts to $950 total."
 
Is this another BS fee?

Bank fee = acquisition fee
 
One and the same... $725 is the base fee, and they can mark it up to $925 for extra profit..
