A DC dealer i was in yesterday told me that lease cash is the same everywhere in the US and is $1K. A second dealer I'm working with said the same thing and went on Chapmans web site and said they were offering different deals than others were, but the lease cash was still $1K. He's offering me a 328i w/leather , premium package, auto,heated seats, (no GPS) and ipod adapter for $40,550 - $1525 down and $500/mo taxes fees included. What do u guys think ? Carman??

BMW of North Scottsdale was the first dealer who told me about the $2K lease cash. They told me this back on Aug 15. And speaking of that dealership... In Saturday's Arizona Republic newspaper, page 2 of the "Cars" section, they advertised a Black Sapphire Metallic base model 328i with black leatherette and stick, no other options, for a lease payment of $199/month. (36 months, $3500 down, $925 lease inception, 10K miles/yr, and a small security deposit)
 
Two different dealers here in AZ, plus a dealer in California (see a previous post), are all stating $2K cash. And don't forget I have the completed lease agreement paperwork which appears to support this argument.
 
For your question, you should probably state the length of the lease as well as the annual mileage allocation. Otherwise, it's difficult to provide feedback.

Are you working with their Internet Department? Are you working with the dealership on Camelback? To me, it seems the other Chapman dealership (in Chandler) might be more pricey. Two things that worked in my favor: The dealership had a big sales event back on Aug 22, and I was a repeat customer who had purchased a CPO X3 from their Internet Dept just a few months ago.
 
Is that $375 monthly payment inclusive of sales tax? With sales tax, my payment comes to $326. My payment is based on a $2500 cap reduction. Yes, there were other fees I paid in addition to this. In all, I paid about $5000, including lease inception fee, license, doc fee, first month's payment, etc. I didn't need to pay a security deposit, due to my history with BMW Financial.
 
For your deal, is $3500 the cap reduction, or is it representing the TOTAL FEES you pay at signing?

I just ordered a 2010 328xi with premium, sport, satellite and ipod, metallic paint for $38,375 at a dealer in Los Angeles. Any ideas what the lease programs on the 2010s will look like or when they come out?

I'm a repeat customer and the dealer will take my car back early - 2 more payments - The MSRP is 42,695 and they are selling it to me for 37,500 - 1000 lease cash. + capped taxes of 1412.03 for a total of 37,912. We're using the MF of .00135 and residual of 58% + 2% on a 36 months 12k yr lease. Total out of pocket is 1447.91 which includes first month (456.63), Aqu Fee (725) Fees and Ins (105) and upfront taxes (161.28) plus cap cost reduction of 1000 minus customer rebate of 1000 (a wash).
 
The car only has 2k on it now and they will pull it from circulation at 4,000.
 
TOP 1447.91
456.63 pm for 36 mos 12k per year
 
Is this a good deal or should I try to do better?

unfortunately I'm not dealing with the internet department but it is the store on Camelback. The $375 was before tax and the $3500 was total.
Thanks for clarifying all the information.

Gar,
 
Here is the link to BMW of North Scottsdale's web site where they specify the $2000 lease cash incentive:

If the $3500 was "total", then your deal is not too far off from mine. If you don't have recent payment history with BMW Financial, then I'm sure your $3500 includes a security deposit; perhaps $400? Hence, the total cap reduction you are paying should be well less than $1000, maybe around $500? If $500, then you're paying $2K less cap reduction than me. (Which is smarter than my method, but I really needed to keep my payments down!) Based on the lease calculations I've seen within our price range, for the terms of this lease, our monthly payment increases/decreases about $30/month for every $1000 we subtract/add to the cap reduction.
 
Put in a different perspective -- If I had dropped my cap reduction to $500, I suspect my monthly payment would have been somewhere between $360 - $365, before tax. This is for MSRP of $38,100. So, if your sales team isn't willing to budge closer to invoice cost on your car (and lower your payments below $375), maybe it wouldn't be improper protocol to call up the guys in their internet department?

Cotmc-
 
re your lease inception fee, I was quoted $825 from 2 DC dealers who said it was universal. And I was just informed by one yesterday that BMW has new terms coming out today. Maybe they will go $2K lease cash here too?
 
to answer your question, my quote was a 12K - 36 mo . What do u think?
