Hi jamiew. BMW is running a lease pull ahead program right now that will let current lessees of select vehicles out of their deals early at no charge if they finance or lease a new vehicle through BMW FS. Unfortunately the Z4 is not one of the vehicles that is eligible for this program. It's only available to current lessees of select 2002 and 2003 3-Series, 5-Series, 7-Series, and X5 models.

Can anyone tell me what I should expect to pay on a 2.5 Z4 w/automatic trans? My understanding is the base price of this car is $31,000 and trans will add another $1,100 for a total of 32,100. I am looking at putting 3,000 down. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi z4racing. If you are in an area that has a decent level of competition, I suspect that you should be able to get a 2005 Z4 for a few hundred dollars over dealer invoice minus any incentives. You can find the invoice price of the exact car that you are considering by looking in the following section of this site: Edmunds.com New Vehicle Pricing. You also may be able to get a feel for how much you will have to pay for this car by visiting the following discussion: "BMW Z4: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".
The incentives that I mentioned earlier are the $3,000 dealer cash that BMW is providing on 2005 BMW Z4 2.5 models and $5,000 that is has on on Z4 3.0 models.
Once you have an idea of the selling price that you want to pay, let me know and I can use BMW's actual lease program to estimate what your car's lease payment should be like.

There aren't too many 2005 Z4s left out there.... If you can find them, you could get a good deal. Finding them is the problem.

Hello car-man.
Would you give me the MF/buyrate and residual for a new Z4 2006 3.0i. Using these figures, I will be able to work through the basic lease program. Thanks a bunch.
Addi,

Hello Addi. This car's lease program varies depending upon how long you lease it for and how many miles per year you are allowed to drive. 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. If you were to lease a 2006 BMW Z4 3.0i through BMW Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00175 and 57%, respectively. You've made a good choice in the '06 Z4. I am amazed by the fact that this car fills the price slot of the old 2.5 model but it has more horsepower than the top of the line 3.0 used to.

Thanks Car_man for the info. I usually lease for 12.0m miles; however, for the time being I will use the 15.0m you supplied. Also, they are giving a $1,200 cash to dealer through 4/30/06. I was also quite pleased when I received the new catalog on the Z4 showing the horsepower and torque. They have thrown in a few upgrades to justify the new price structure. Have a good day. I appreciate.
Addi.
#134 of 702 Question on a new 2006 Z4 lease
by dagsz4
Mar 20, 2006 (7:52 am)
My lease is up on my current 2003 Z4 on May 23rd. I am planning on leasing a 2006, however I don't want to take delivery on my new car for three weeks after my lease end date because I Will be away. Can I extend my lease by one month and how does that work? I actually took delivery on the 2003 three weeks early because the car came in earlier than expected. Also, they are currently offering a $1500.00 incentive on the 2006 through April 30th. Should I take my chances and see what is offered in May? Any info you could give me on this will be greatly appreciated.
