Don't worry about it, 8eight. Community members forget to mention the selling price of the vehicle that they want to lease all the time. OK, so you are interested in leasing a 2006 X5 3.0 that has an MSRP of $56,120 and a selling price of $51,600. The 2006 BMW X5 has a spread of over $4,500 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice price. On top of that, BMW is providing $2,500 dealer cash on '06 X5 3.0 models to help dealers unload leftover models. That gives you a total of $7,000 to play with. You are being given a $4,500 discount on this truck. I personally would want a larger discount than that if I was in the market for one. Try stopping by the following discussion to see how much other community members have paid for similar vehicles lately: "BMW X5: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". Once you arrive at an attractive price for this truck, make sure that the dealer you are working with uses BMW Financial Services' buy rate lease money factor of .00185 to calculate your monthly payment.

Hello tenet1. This truck's lease program varies depending upon how long you lease it for and its mileage allowance. You never mentioned either of these items in your post, so for now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2006 X5 3.0 with 15,000 miles per year are .00185 and 56%, respectively. BMW is currently providing $2,500 dealer cash on this model. Make sure to take this cash into account when negotiating your truck's capitalized cost.

You're welcome, fergie3. To the best of my knowledge, BMW still has not published a lease program for the 2007 X5. I'll do some digging again in a week or two to see if it has published one. Please feel free to check back with me then and I will be happy to fill you in on what I have been able to find out.

Hi auburn87. The money factor that you were quoted is too high. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor for a 36 month lease of a 2006 X5 3.0 is .00185. With the waiver of your vehicle's security deposit it increases by .00015, but returning BMW FS customers receive a security deposit waiver at no additional charge. Make sure that the dealer that you are working with uses this truck's buy rate to calculate its lease payment.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if you were able to beat the selling price that you were quoted either. You were quoted a discount of $5,500 on a truck that including the dealer cash that is available on it probably has a spread of around $7,000 between its MSRP and invoice price. If you are in an area that has a decent level of competition, I would not be surprised if you were able to beat $1,500 over invoice on a leftover model.

Ahhh, I see that you were quoted some actual numbers for a lease of a 2007 X5. Thanks for the info, gatorfan3. The last time that I checked, BMW had not published any numbers for the 2007 X5 yet. Not surprisingly, it appears as though BMW is not providing any lease support on this truck. This is fairly common with brand new or redesigned models. If one wants to be the first on their block to have a new vehicle, they have to pay to play . As time passes, the lease program for the '07 X5 will likely become more attractive. It is difficult to say how long it will be before BMW introduced money factor support on this model though. A lot will depend upon how well it is received by the public and how strong auto sales are in general.

Hi fergie3. Even without any lease support the money factor that you were quoted is WAY too high. BMW Financial Services' standard money factor varies by region, but its standard buy rate is currently around only .00330. It appears as though the dealer that you spoke with is going to make customers who want to be the first to have a redesigned X5 pay through the nose to get one.

Does anyone have any lease rates and residuals for the 2007. My salesman is currently working on an offer right now. Thanks.

Nothing since my previous post. At that time, BMW Financial was only offering 53% residual with money factor of .00330 on a 36 month 15k mile lease. Not very attractive! Please advise us if your dealer has sweetened that offer. Thanks.
