Hi 530iturk. It sounds like you are new to leasing. If so, you definitely should check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com prior to visiting any dealers: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.
 
Generally speaking, the longer a lease is the lower the monthly payment will be. A 36 month lease of a BMW Z4 would definitely have a lower monthly payment than a 24 month lease would right now. In case you are interested, BMW Financial Services' November buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 BMW Z4 3.0 roadster with 15,000 miles per year are .00275 and 55%, respectively. This car's 12,000 mile per year residual value would be 2% higher and the 10k residual would be 3% higher than the 15k resid.

Hey chimmaera. BMW's November incentives for the 2007 Z4 are basically the same as they were in October.

Hello jojo16. The money factor that you were quoted for this lease looks a little high to me. If you are talking about a 2008 Z4 here, BMW Financial Services' current buy rate for non-returning customers who pay a security deposit at lease signing is only .00270. Make sure that the dealer you are working with uses this factor to calculate your car's monthly payment.
 
I see that you are considering making a $4,500 down payment on your lease. In my opinion, that is way too much money to put down. Consumers who make large down payments on leases risk losing part or all of them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. You would be better off paying as little money as possible out of your pocket at lease signing.
 
One thing that you should use to reduce your car's capitalized cost is the $2,500 dealer cash incentive that BMW is providing on leases of the '08 Z4 3.0i through BMW Financial Services right now. Negotiate a selling price that is as close to dealer invoice as possible and then have the dealer subtract this dealer cash.

#538 of 702 2007 Z4 Coupe by cole

Car_man - I'm looking at a 2007 Z4 Coupe and and looking for the same great info that you always provide!
 
What are the current residuals and money factors for the '07s assuming a 36/39 month lease at 15,000 miles per year?
 
Also, I assume that the TMV on Edmunds takes the $7500 rebate into consideration when it gives you the "price others are paying." Is this right?
 
Thanks!

Thanks Car_man
 
The next day, Christmas eve, I came back to the dealer to negotiate further.
Finally we reached an agreement slightly better than the deal the dealer offered the day before.
Monthly payment was down to $242. Lower than what I was paying for the car I traded in.
 
There might have been a room to further negotiate, but I am totally happy with the Titunium Silver Roadster.'t wait for the summer to drive top down.
It is only 120 miles driven since delivery in three weeks - it has been rainy here in seattle all time in the winter, can.
