Hi diegoelvis. Here's the information that you're looking for. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 328i Sedan with 15,000 miles per year are .00220 and 57%, respectively.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2009 328i Coupe are .00150 and 58%.
 
When negotiating your lease on these cars, make sure to take advantage of the $1,260 free option credit that's available on the sedan and $1,000 cash incentive that's available on both the sedan and the coupe.

Greetings rez2. Thanks, I'm glad that you like this forum so much. Here's the latest on the information that you're looking for.
 
BMW Financial Services' June buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 328i Convertible with 10,000 miles per year are .00180 and 61%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 42 month lease are .00180 and 55%.
 
BMW FS charges a $725 acquisition fee on every vehicle that it leases.

Hi marknog1. I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience. What you need to do is figure out exactly how much you want to pay for the car that you are interested in and find out what its lease program is like prior to visiting any dealers.
 
Once you have this information, call, e-mail, or visit several dealers in person and see which one wants your business the most. To me, the easiest way to negotiate a good deal on a leased vehicle is to negotiate the lowest possible selling price and then have the dealer that you are working with calculate your car's monthly payment using its buy rate lease money factor.

Hi mike141. If I was in an area that had a decent level of competition, like New York, I personally would want a larger discount on this car. While the selling price that you were quoted appears to be slightly under $500 over dealer invoice at first glance, it actually is more like $2,760 over invoice once the $1,260 free option credit and $1,000 cash incentive that are currently available on this car are taken into account.

Hey Eric. BMW Financial Services' May lease program is about the same as its June program was. The only difference is as you mentioned in late May, BMW made the $1,000 cash incentive that was originally only available to loyal customers to "conquest" customers aka "just about anyone with a pulse" as well.

My deal for 328 coupe by shweta1

The best deal that I could find in my area(Virginia/Maryland) for 328 coupe
 
automatic
black on black
premium package
heated front seats
ipod-usb adapter
 
is $539.92/month for 36 months 12000miles/year with no down payment at leasing excpet for first month's payment and then I am left with 35 more payments. All taxes and fees are included in monthly payment. Does it sound a good deal...
 
car_men can you provide your views.
Thanks.

Carman,
Is this $1,260 still valid on the 328i and 335i sedan? I can't find any other mention of this and Edmunds doesn't show it as an incentive. The only thing they show is a $1,000 lease cash on the 328i and 335i sedan or coupe. I'd like to buy in June or July. Which of these incentives will still be valid?

Carman-
 
Another question - If the MSRP is $42,570 (with options) and the selling price is $40,016, where do I apply the $1,000 and the $1,260 within the Edmunds lease calculator? Do I add them and put them in "Customer Cash Rebate"?

Sorry, new to this..still trying to understand the lease process...
 
Anyways, once you've negotiated the selling price, is it assummed the dealer will give the the Money Factor and Residual that you've mentioned previously, or is that something they can bump upwards and then you have to make sure you negotiate down to figures such as the ones you've given us? Are these two factors also based on your credit score?
