Hi,
 
I didn't think that BMW still offered the 525i - probably the 528i now. Money factor is equivalent to an interest rate essentially. When you are leasing you are paying both to rent the car and also to pay interest.
 
One bit of advice is you might check out swapalease.com
 
I have a 530xi I picked up there - quite a bit more horsepower than the 528 and probably cheaper.

You have to tell us what options you are getting with the 528i in order for us to advise you as to whether or not its a good deal.
 
To review, in order to compute the true cost of a lease you need three numbers: (1) the Net Capitalized Cost (i.e. purchase price including options and fees less any down payment); (2) residual value (value of car at end of lease term); (3) money factor (interest).
 
Some dealers will add the lease acquisition fee (bank fee for originating lease) into the Capitalized Cost, others will break the fee out as a separate charge. Regardless, most will include that fee in the initial down payment.
 
Any security deposit is an additional amount which will also be included in the initial down payment.
 
Sales tax on the vehicle (usually only on the amount of your depreciation depending on state) can be separately paid or rolled into your lease payment.
 
To convert a lease money factor into a rough approximation of APR Interest Rate, multiply the money factor by 2400 (even if your lease term is longer than 24 months.)
 
You can figure out what your Capitalized Cost should be by pricing your car with options using Edmunds TMV. A previous poster posted this site http://forums.roadfly.com/forums/financing/8651672-1.html
from which you can obtain the money factor and residual values for BMW Financial Services leases for October.
 
Once you have all your numbers, it's time to whip out your calculator and use the following formulas(refer to http://www.leaseguide.com/lease08.htm):
 
Depreciation Fee = ( Net Capitalized Cost – Residual Value) ÷ Term
Finance Fee = ( Net Cap Cost + Residual Value ) × Money Factor
 
Total Monthly Lease Payment (assuming taxes paid separately) = Depreciation Fee + Finance Fee

 
How'd I do CAR MAN?

If I trade-in my car with dealer that I'm going to lease my new car. And assuming that they give me trade-in value equal to pay-off amount, do I get any sales tax credit on that? ... in state of Texas of course

2008 bmw 535 lease by camil

Car man-
 
I am currently leasing a 2005 BMW 530, and would like to get into a 2008 535. Dealer has offered a price on the 535 of 56638 versus MSRP of 59270. What lease payment based on 36 month, 15K annual miles, should I be looking for? My $700 security deposit on existing lease would carry over.
