Hello Ashish. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 X5 50i with 12,000 miles per year are .00195 and 61%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
The money factors for loyal customers would be lower than this.
 
The money factor that you were quoted is way out of whack. Either don't qualify for BMW's top credit tiers, or more likely the dealer is attempting to mark BMW FS' base rate up on you to add additional hidden profit to your deal.

What you heard is correct, loyal customers are eligible for either a $1,000 credit or the .00030 money factor reduction, but they can't get both. Even better, if you are in a BMW FS lease that is scheduled to expire between now and the end of February, you're eligible for another .00075 money factor reduction on top of this.
 
$1,000 over invoice is a decent price...if the dealer is subtracting the $1,000 BMW FS credit from that lowering the price to invoice, but not enough to justify the dealer marking up the money factor. Unless you are in an area that doesn't have much in the way of competition you shouldn't let the dealer get away with the mark up. I certainly wouldn't.
 
One other thing, $6,000 to $8,000 is way too much money to pay at lease signing. I always advise consumers to pay as little as possible at signing on leases. I do so because consumers who make large down payments on leased vehicles risk losing part or all of the money that they put down if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered.
 
I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi Car Man,
 
Can you please give me the December MF and residual, and any incentives for an X5 35i. I am a current BMW lease holder and will qualify for top tier credit. Thanks,

Car man
 
Can you explain the promotional lease? The offer is 589 per month with 4300 due at signing.
They also offe the 1000 credit and 1730 option credit. Is it built into the deal? The promotional is on an msrp of 50250 and the car I am looking at is 46.5 selling price.
 
Thanks

This NOT a good deal.
YOu should be getting a better price because there are promotions.
You should not do any cap reduction -- that is your putting money into the deal.
What dealership are you with.
I was offered a much better deal.

Hey thanks for the reply
 
We re using a broker but I believe it is thru Center BMW, LA - what was you deal and where was it from. What sort of many factor or APR should we be looking at we have an excellent credit score.

#1759 of 2260 Purchase on Thursday by robprivi

Dec 10, 2011 (1:25 pm)

My lease was ending on my 535i in Feb. and salesman said he could get me out early. My payoff was 36k and BMW lowered it to 29k and the dealer purchased it for that price. I didn't know that could happen. Anyway, with my credit score dealership gave me a .00090 MF. with 56% residual on 36 month 12k a year lease.
