Hi bmwluver2000. $660 over dealer invoice plus the use of BMW FS' buy rate lease money factor and no acquisition fee mark-up is a pretty good deal on this car. I particularly like how the dealer wasn't trying to pull one over on you by marking up everything under the sun to add hidden profit to your deal. If you like the car, I personally don't see any reason not to go for it.

Hi aht. The $1,260 cash incentive that you've seen mentioned is an "option credit" that is being provided by BMW on the 328i Sedan. There is a larger $1,840 option credit on the 328i xDrive Sedan that you are interested in. I believe that this cash is to be used to provide free automatic transmissions on these vehicles. It is compatible with the $1,000 cash incentive on leases of these models.
 
The advertised payments that are mentioned on BMW's website are indeed real. They work out. Perhaps your calculations are off.
 
If I was in the market for this car, I personally would shoot for a selling price of $500 to $750 over dealer invoice minus the $2,840 in cash incentives. You can look up the invoice price for the exact model that you're interested in over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of this site.

Hi rjg001. Here's the information that you're looking for. You never mentioned how long you want to lease this car for or what mileage allowance you need, so for now I will have to make some assumptions. Let me know if you want something different. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 335i Coupe with 15,000 miles per year are .00165 and 57%, respectively.
 
Since you aren't taking advantage of the free automatic transmission option credit, which actually isn't available on this trim level anyhow, the only cash incentive on this car right now is the $1,000 that you mentioned.

Hello texashoser. The money factor that the dealer quoted you is too high. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor for a 36 month lease of a 2009 335i is only .00225. It appears as though the dealer that you are working with is attempting to mark your car's factor up to add additional hidden, back-end profit to your deal.

Hi bmwshopper79. This deal is remarkably similar to a deal that a community member named bmwluver2000 just posted. Are you two the same people? Here's what I said to bmwluver2000:

why is bmw quoting me .00165 on the money factor when it's posted at .00150?
 
right now most dealers are holding firm on 3k off of msrp on a 44.5 to 45k 328i coupe.
my monthly on a 36 month 36k lease is around 588 including ca tax with 1290 drive off. what can i do to get them to drop about another one thousand?

'09 M3 residual value and money factor by vz09

Hi Guys,
 
I was recently quoted an only 54% 3-year residual value and .003 money factor for a 2009 M3 lease...both sounded like BS to me, considering the terms posted by BMW on 335 leases and financing in general. Would much appreciate it if anyone can shed light, since I don't have any other way to verify these. Thanks!

328xi coupe incentives by mlong9876
Jul 17, 2009 (7:54 am)

Hi Car Man,
 
What are the current incentives available on an '09 328xi coupe with premium and automatic trans for a current bmwfs customer?
 
From what I've read, it seems that the coupe's money factor is more favorable than the sedan's (.00135 vs. .00225).
Using the following MSRP of 43,900 with an invoice of 40,465 and assuming I could get it for $500 over invoice (minus incentives), please give me an idea of what I might expect to pay monthly for a 24/15 or 36/15 lease with required $ down.
 
My car isn't due back for another few months and they haven't offered me any sort of early lease return deal.
 
Finally, is it true that I can request a refund for miles I haven't used on my current car?
 
Thank you
