Voldermort....
 
Do you live in NJ or NY? I'm not sure how it works if you live in NJ and purchase in NY State, but you may have the option to either pay the tax as part of the monthly payment or pay it all up front. For my last NJ-purchased lease, signed 34 months ago, I pay the taxes as part of the payment. For the car I just ordered last week, the taxes were due up front. Ask the dealer as to what the flexibility is and, if you buy from BMW of Manhattan, remind him if you are a NJ resident (residency may make a difference, not where you buy it...I'm not sure about this).
 
Up front, you will typically need to pay 1st month, bank fee, any type of acquisition fee, document fees, and any applicable taxes (as mentioned above).
 
I'm not sure what your deal was on your existing X5, but let me tell you that it will be incredibly difficult to get the payments into the mid 500's per month, even with an owner loyalty money factor, unless you drop a large cap cost reduction up front.
 
Speaking of owner loyalty, per your question, there is no Owner Loyalty available on the X5 this month. The last BMW OLP for the X5 expired on January 2. You would have had to put in a credit app before then and take deliver of the car within 90 days to secure the OLP money factor and other benefits.
 
Refer to the deal that I posted here: chrisjur, "BMW X5 Prices Paid and Buying Experience" #776, 22 Dec 2007 9:24 am
which is about average for what I got from most dealers in the NYC area last month. (I found a deal a tiny bit cheaper, but not enough to make me jump dealers)

I have 50 days left on my lease of a 2006 M3. The lease is paid up. I'm looking to lease a 2008 X5. Is there benefit or trade-in value to the old car? The dealer inspected it an put a trade-in value of $40K on it. How does that figure exactly in calculating the lease on the X5? This is my first lease to turn over.

jbwisch - What is the buy-out on your current M3? If the buy-out is lower than the $40k trade-in value, you are in the money and could receive some benefit on your new 2008 X5 lease. During the course of the past few months, BMW has enhanced the money factor on select models for returning BMW customers. In the past, the only benefit was the disposition fee of $350 was waived.
 
If you need more help, please feel free to email me or reply.

eights38: Sorry for my ignorance, but what exactly is the "buy out"? I don't owe anything on the lease. If that means the cost to purchase the car at the end of the lease, I'd have to check. The residual value was $42054. Thanks for your help.
