#4760 of 5171 2013 3 series 24 month lease by warbern

Nov 14, 2012 (1:03 pm)

Hi Car_Man:
 
Could you please tell me what the November MF and Residual are for a 24 month lease on a 2013 328i or 335i sedan. I would love to also know the difference between 10k and 12k miles on a lease. Also, do you feel it's better to wait until December for more incentives to pop up? Thanks so much for all your help!

#4761 of 5171 Does location make a difference in lease deals by gizmo29

Hi Car_Man:
 
I noticed that people are posting some great offers here. Cars that are valued at high 40's MSRP and getting monthly's in the high 400's with very little down. So my question is does your location make a huge difference in how much you are going to pay on a typical 328 lease?
 
I just picked up my 328i after weeks of dealing with bate and switch tactics with local dealers.
My deal came out to the following and I felt like it was pretty good considering the other quotes I had been getting from Los Angeles based dealers.
 
BMW 328i 2013
Sport Line
Glacier silver exterior / black leatherette interior
moonroof
parking assist
steptronic auto transmission
power front seats
 
MSRP 41,9995
Sell Price 38,261.00
39 mos lease 15k per year
 
Monthly : $405
Originally quoted $3400 due at signing but had to put down another 1k because BMW financial wanted 10% to approve my credit since I'm a first time buyer.
 
Do you think I got taken for a ride here? I felt like this was the best deal I had seen, most dealers in my area are very unwilling to negotiate all that low.

#4762 of 5171 Wheel and Tire protection plan worth it? by gizmo29

Nov 14, 2012 (1:23 pm)

What are everyone's thoughts, my car has Run flat tires and pretty big rims that are low to contact. Is it worth taking BMW wheel and tire protection....they said they can sell it to me for 1k bottom line?

Hey buddy don't do it. Wheel and tire insurance is what it is: insurance. I'd rather roll the dice than give money to basically dealer profit, from my experience in lease returns they are lenient on tire and wheel scratches and dings

Post your breakdown of the fees residuals and mf
How is your credit? If its good, I don't believe in having to put down 10% just because you are a new buyer. Also before you pull the trigger, check out pacific BMW of Glendale. Go to their website/call and talk to an internet sales manager. See if they can beat ur deal.

Yeah that seems to be the consensus. I'm gonna tell em no thanks.
In your experience what is the procedure when returning a lease in terms of wear and tear on the car itself as well as if the tires are low on tread? Will I have to fix every scuff on the car's paint as well as get 4 new tires before taking it back? I've heard that BMW is notorious for insane charges on lease returns....
 
Thanks l3gendary!

Considering leasing instead of buying for the first time. Looking at a 2013 x3 2.8. Any details available on money factor & residual value would be welcome!

#4767 of 5171 Best and Worst Run Flat Tires by gizmo29

Nov 16, 2012 (4:46 pm)

What are people's thoughts for tires down the line on run flat 18' with somewhat low profile.
 
Hanook, Kumho, Michelin, Continental ?
 
They all seem to range between 140-220 per tire. Is there a huge difference...

rthakur11,
 
Question for you: Is the sale price you're quoting here, including the $1,000 BMW Holiday manufacturer incentive? I'm in a similar price range on the MSRP of a lease I'm trying to negotiate. I was wondering if you managed to talk them down more than $3,000 without the incentive factored in? That's my goal, but I'm not sure if it's realistic. I'm assuming this price you were quoted includes $1,000 off of what you negotiated them down to off the MSRP. Thanks.

Certainly juliog. Audi Financial Services' November buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 328i xDrive Sedan with 15,000 miles per year are .00130 and 58% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
When negotiating your deal on this car, make sure to take advantage of the $1,000 cash incentive that is currently available on it.
