yeah, I hear you. Taxes are a lovely thing. This is the third car I've leased. My accountant has cleared it in my past leases and has told me why, I just can't remember. I'll take the deduction this year because I need it.
 
Interesting on the mileage thing. I'm going to double check this.
 
5K due at signing and drive. Come on, the hat and jacket are worth $5000 alone. At lease the parts for my 95 LWT M3 are right up there.

May want out of a 2007 x3 lease 15Kmi/yr by hhgolf

The residual will be about $29K in Feb2010. I will not have fully used all 45K miles, I only have 21K now. The real Q is should I buy and could I deal below residual. Or is it worth dumping it sooner? Just may be tiring of the truck.

Hello
Could someone run through the numbers for me here? I've used various online calculators and did my own equations and the numbers aren't consistent.
'08 x3
$45,300MSRP
Negotiated price = 42,900
MF = .00125
Res = .64
36 months at 12K miles
tax is roughly 5.5%

Hi hhgolf. I am sorry to say that it is usually fairly expensive to get out of leases well before their scheduled end dates. In order to do so, you need to purchase the vehicle that you are currently leasing from the bank that you are leasing it through. It often turns out that it costs more to do so than your vehicle is worth on the open market. Furthermore, many banks expect consumers who end their leases early to still make all, or at least the depreciation portion of their remaining lease payments. As you can see, this can get very expensive.
  
You can determine approximately how much it will cost you to get out of your current lease by comparing its purchase price to its value on the open market at this time. You should place a call to the bank that you are leasing your vehicle through to find out its exact price. Once you know exactly how much money it is going to cost you to buy your leased vehicle you need to compare it to its current value on the open market. You can find out approximately what your vehicle is worth by looking up its Edmunds.com True Market Value in the Used Vehicle Pricing section of this site. You also may want to stop by the following discussion: "Real-World Trade-In Values". Don't forget to check to see if you are still on the hook for your remaining lease payments. The difference between your leased vehicle's current value and how much it will cost you to buy it plus any remaining lease payments that you are obligated to pay will equal the cost of getting out of your lease right now.
 
Given the precipitous fall in used vehicle values over the past year, particularly for trucks, you likely find that you are better off waiting until you are closer to the scheduled end of your lease to get another new vehicle.

Here you go, bzee. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 X3 with 12,000 miles per year are .00125 and 72%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are .00125 and 64%.

hhgolf......I'd try to get someone to assume the lease. Go to www.swapalease.com and post your vehicle there. It's a pretty good spot to get out of a lease you no longer want. I've picked up two vehicles there.
