Coming off a 3 year lease from being a loyal infiniti buyer. Currently have the M45 sport previously had an FX35. Things are looking on the up and up and am now able to afford my 3rd bimmer. i was at open road BMW in NJ. the sales guy was giving me the following deal.
 
X5 4.8I
Premium Package
Sports Package
Technology Package
White on Black
 
5,672 down ($800 of which is returnable security) $800 a month
 
I was willing to pay up front too and he gave me no money down and $811 month total equaling $26,763 +tax +title +destination fees.
 
Am i getting a good deal or am i getting Jacked? This would be a build to order situation.

HI mannydom. The selling price that you were quoted for the X5 that you are interested in, $1,250 over invoice, sounds reasonable to me, but you're right...the money factor is a little high. As you have read, BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor for the 2008 X5 3.0si is .00210 for returning BMW FS lessees. The dealer is trying to make a little extra back-end money on your deal by marking up your money factor. Make sure that the dealer uses this factor to calculate your monthly payment.

Thanks Car_man. If he stands his ground and insists on .00250 MF, do I have any other option besides accepting the deal or walking away?

What are May/2008 MF and residuals for BMW X5 3.0 and 4.8
for 12,000 miles, 15,000 miles.
(I have BMW 535i with BMW FS.)
Also, how would multiple deposits reduce MF?
Finally, what is reasonable amount above invoice?
(BMW 535I recent lease was invoice +$800.)
Given BMW high MFs for X5, any suggestions on other SUVs to review with better leases?

Anyone any ideas on getting lowest price for X5?
Not sure why they aren't cheaper, given economy and poor mileage...
Does 3.0 have enough pickup?

My wife is considering BMW X5.
I have BMW 535i and have mixed feelings, but I did get reasonable deal.
I'm also in Los Angeles. Would you be kind enough to advise what kind of deals you are being offered on X5?
Thank you so much for your help.

I just got May numbers.... by hachee2001

I'm in NY. I should have pulled the trigger in April, because May numbers are awful:
On a 36mo/10K lease, the residual went from 61% to 56%. The MF went from .0021 to .0025. This alone raises the price at least $100/mo (I didn't get a firm number, since I was in shock). I don't know what a reasonable price over invoice or discount off list is right now, but obviously BMW isn't that anxious to move these cars.

You're welcome, mannydom. If the dealer that you are working with insists upon marking up your vehicle's money factor there isn't much that you can do to get them not to other than threatening to or actually going to a competing dealer.

Hi asteinberg. BMW Financial Services' May buy rate lease money factor for a 36 month lease of a 2008 BMW X5 3.0 with 15,000 miles per year are .00250 and 53%, respectively. the numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '08 X5 4.8 are .00225 and 55%. If you were to lease with only 12,000 miles per year, these trucks' residual values will be 2% higher.
 
As far as multiple security deposits go, each additional deposit that you make after the first (unless it is waived because you are a returning BMW FS lessee) will reduce these trucks' money factors by .00007. You can make up to a maximum of seven additional deposits for a total money factor reduction of .00049.
 
I am not personally all that familiar with what the market is like for the X5 right now, but you may be able to get a good idea of how much you will have to pay for one by visiting the "BMW X5 Prices Paid and Buying Experience" discussion.
