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.

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.

Question(s) for Car Man - Re Current Z-4 lease offer> by mbn1941
Jan 17, 2008 (7:25 pm)

I presently lease a BMW and my current lease is about to end. I am starting to look for a new car.
 
BMWUSA has posted on it's web site a lease offer for a 2008, 3.0i Z-4 with the following terms. $2,500.00 cash down with monthly lease payments of $379.00, not including sales tax, for 39 months based on MSRP of $38,450.00.
 
My question are:
 
1. Should I expect the dealer to accept an offer lower than MSRP? If yes, by how much?
 
2. May any reduction in price by the dealer be used to lower the down payment or the monthly payment required by this lease?
 
Thank you for your help.
 
Mike

Hi Mike. You absolutely should get a discount on the Z4 that you are interested in. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. If I was personally in the market for a Z4 3.0i right now, I would shoot for a selling price of $500 over dealer invoice and then have the dealer that I was working with subtract the $2,500 cash incentive that is available on it from that. You can look up the invoice price of the exact model that you want by visiting the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
 
Once you arrive at a selling price that you are comfortable with, have the dealer calculate your car's monthly payment using BMW Financial Services' buy rate lease money factor. Its buy rate for a 36 month lease of an '08 Z4 3.0i roadster is .00255 for returning BMW lessees or new ones who pay a security deposit at lease signing. If the dealer that you are working with tries to charge you a higher rate than that they are likely marking your car's money factor up to add additional hidden back-end profit to your deal.
