Hi lfm3. BMW Financial Services' June buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 BMW X3 with 10,000 miles per year are .00240 and 75%, respectively. I believe that the owner loyalty money factor reduction is still .00090 on this model. BMW is still not providing any option credits on the X3.

If you are returning your leased BMW, why is there a trade involved, at all?
 
Is it a lease, or a balloon payment? Are you in Illinois or Texas?

Lease -- No clue why the trade. It was their creative way of getting payments close to current lease payment.

Yeah.. I'm not sure how it helps, if the trade allowance is shown as the same as the payoff... I thought maybe it was a tax issue... but, isn't tax in VA, 3% on the selling price? So, it doesn't look like that saved you anything there, either..
 
That payment looks pretty close to others that I've seen.. Assuming 3yr/36K like the old one?
 
Most people in the know at BMW expect the lease deals to get worse next month, so there is some urgency... There are also special money factors for returning customers this month..
 
Without the specifics on what MF they are using, it's hard to tell how good your deal is... It certainly isn't terrible..

kyfdx......Any idea what the "special money factors" are for returning customers in July? I've got an X5 lease that's up in early October, but would like to get an X3 next. I had planned on waiting a month or so to sort things out, but it sounds like maybe I should try to do it July 31 if things are about to hit the fan in the leasing world.
 
What else do you hear about BMW's attitude toward leasing? I read in the paper today that Chase will no longer provide lease financing for Chrysler, and that does not bode well for the world of leasing in general.
 
Any inside info might be VERY timely for many of us. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure that the OLP MF on the X3 is .0016 for July... Not great, but not bad.. Plus, the X3 is the last BMW model that still has an unrealistically high residual (64% for 3yr/36mo.?)
 
I wouldn't worry about leasing issues at BMW... We are seeing a correction to those residuals, but BMWs still have great resale..
 
Strangely enough, I just leased a Subaru this week.. and the financing was through Chase...
 
Also.. none of this is "inside info".. I just read a lot..

kyfdx
