Residual on new 2007 with 10k by quasarba

If I find a 2007 that has 10k miles on it, but never titled, sold, registered that is being sold as new from dealer, would the residual value be based on MSRP, what I actually pay for it or somewhere in between? Would the percentage be worse just the fact that it is a 2007? What about money factor? Thanks for any help.

I do not believe this car will qualify for any lease programs. The 2008 leases are so good I would go with those. Plus the transmission issue is likely taken care of on the 2008. Just my opinion.

Wasn't aware of transmission issue.
 
$750 above invoice good on 2008?
True only 7% markup from invoice to MSRP?
How much less is true cost than invoice?

I believe markup is 8%. Just an FYI, finalized my '08 X3 lease
MSRP = ~45,300
Neg. Cap Cost = 42,025
12K miles for 36 months
Res: 64%
MF= 0.00125
$1 K down (~$2k to start including first month's payment)
$485 per month.
 
I can't complain too much as the '08's are getting scarce and I got most of what I wanted on the car.

Here you go, soonercat. According to the latest information that I have seen, BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 X3 with 15,000 miles per year are .00190 and 60%, respectively. The residual value for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher.

December 2008 Lease Numbers Up Yet? by crazydclawyer

Dear CarMan -
 
Many thanks for all of the great info you provide out here! VERY Much appreciated.
 
Any word on the Dec. 2008 lease numbers? Too early? In partcular, looking for 2009 BMW X3, 12K miles/year.
 
Also, BMW just announed that sales of BMW brand vehicles decreased 36.1 percent in November for a total of 15,217 compared to 23,808 in November 2007. Year-to-date BMW brand sales were down 12.3 percent, to 231,053 vehicles compared to 263,596 vehicles sold in the same period in 2007. (Story here - http://www.forbes.com/prnewswire/feeds/prnewswire/2008/12/02/prnewswire200812021- 418PR_NEWS_USPR_____NYTU148.html)
 
Thanks CarMan!

Assignment fee? by kawakibi
Dec 04, 2008 (2:21 pm)
Reply
I just got a breakdown for my lease and the dealer includes "assignment fee" for $925 - what is this? Is this marked up?
 
Also, he is marking up the MF at .165% - does this even make sense? Shouldn't it be .00165 regardless. Its obvious he is changing it because they sent me all four terms 24/30/36/42 months and they are all the same MF. Funny.
 
Any tips on negotiating the MFdown & what is an assignment fee?
THANKS!

Kawakibi,
 
I don't know about assignment fee, maybe Carman can help. But on my last lease on X3, there was no such thing.
 
On the MF, a dealer I talked to said that they are allowed to mark it up by 0.0004. It adds up to about 1% more on the rate. On a typical X3 lease, that could add up to $500-600 a year. In essence they double dip on you.
 
My suggestion is to try to negotiate and if they won't budge, go to other dealers.
