#1901 of 2270 LEASING 2012 BMW X5 xDrive 35d-Good Deal? by vvanvlym

Apr 23, 2012 (9:53 am)

I HAVE PLACED A ORDER FOR A 2012 BMW X5 xDrive 35d. THE MSRP IS $63,595. IT INCLUDES THE SPORT ACTIVITY & PREMIUM PKG PLUS RUNNING BOARDS. THE SELL PRICE THEY GAVE ME WAS $58,579. IS THAT A GOOD DEAL? TO KEEP MY PAYMENTS AT ABOUT $700 A MONTH, HE SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PUT DOWN $5789.12. I READ THAT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA. IF I DO THESE MSD'S, WILL THAT BE ENOUGH TO KEEP MY PAYMENT DOWN TO $700 A MONTH FOR A 15K MILES PER YEAR, 36 MONTH LEASE?

#1902 of 2270 WHY DOES CARS.COM & BMW'S RESIDUALS DIFFER SOO MUCH? by vvanvlym

Apr 23, 2012 (5:16 pm)

CARS.COM SHOWS 2012 BMW X5 35D RESIDUAL AT 56% AT 2 YEARS AND 46% AT THREE. WHY DOES BMW ON THEIR LEASE SHOW THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE A RESIDUAL AT THREE YEARS AT 56%? THAT IS A 10% DIFFERENCE. WHICH IS PROBABLY MORE CORRECT?

What are the residual (10,000 and 12,000/year) and money factor leasing rates for 2012 and 2013 X5 xDrive35i 4dr SUV? Also, what is the savings if you provide multimonth security deposits? Also, what is the current BMW lease acquisition fee? Are there any cap reduction incentives for April? Many thanks!!!

Davidb20: Why are you putting that much money down on a lease? It's generally not a good idea to put extra cash down on a lease.
 
The deal should be judged by how much above dealer invoice the car is priced, not the amount taken off the sticker. In other words, ask the dealer to show you the dealer invoice price and pay no more than $700 above dealer invoice. Then subtract the eco credit, trade in, and any other incentives. If you're a good negotiator, maybe you can get the vehicle for closer to invoice minus incentives. But, if you love the vehicle, don't lose sleep over a couple hundred dollars. It doesn't make that much difference on a lease.
 
Also, ask for the lease money factor and ask the dealer how much they marked up the money factor if at all. Dealers pad the money factor to make extra money on the deal.

Thanks for the answers guys. I am not well versed in all the aspects of the lease lingo. I picked up the car. It is a awesome vehicle, we are pretty happy, which i guess is the most important part

Hey shailen. The money factor that you were quoted is right on the money. What you were told is correct, the residual value for the base 2013 X5 is 2% lower than the residual for the Premium.
 
The selling price that you were quoted for a '13 X5, slightly over $1,000 over invoice, doesn't seem outrageous to me.

Hi rexx08. BMW Financial Services' April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a base 2012 X5 xDrive35i with 12,000 miles per year are .00190 and 59%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tiers.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a base 2013 X5 xDrive35i are .00190 and 59%.
 
The residual values for leases with only 10,000 miles per year would be 1% higher.
 
I believe that BMW FS provides a money factor reduction of .00007 for every additional security deposit paid.
 
BMW FS' base acquisition fee is $595.
 
BMW is not providing any cash incentives on the X5 in April, but it is scheduled to introduce its new May program some time tomorrow.
