The cheaper number is the way to go. I don't know what interest rates you can get since it is dependent on your credit, so I can't help you with the math.

| Hi I would like to know how much the sales tax is in VA, MD? | |
I was just wondering what the current money factor would be for either a Mini S or a Mini S Convertible. I am coming out of a lease with a 325i. From what I've read here, I should be eligible for a reduced money factor. Is that correct?

They just came out with a monthly payment which was more than a little higher than I was expecting. Any info that could help me negotiate at the next dealer would be most welcome. |

Replying to: pjo1966 (Sep 18, 2007 3:45 pm) What kind of numbers were they giving you? Oh, I'm in California as well. I think the state you are in also comes into play with the MF. With the 1/2 pt. decrease in interest rates today, I am going to fight for a lower MF. Logically speaking it should go down. Here's what I did to try and find the current Buy Rate. I called dealers and asked to speak to the financing guys. Spin your own story and if you're lucky you'll get the rate out of them. Call when they are busy. Post what you find out! |

Replying to: esgam (Sep 18, 2007 5:04 pm) A67 British Racing Green Metallic ZPP Premium 205 Automatic A47 Color Line Dark Grey (whatever that is) 4BD Interior Surface Piano Black MSRP $25450 Price $25750 $448.83 up front $448.83/mo including taxes I was not happy with the fact that they couldn't give me an itemized breakdown of the numbers. Given the numbers you posted, the monthly should be closer to $399, which is what I was looking to pay. I still have two months left on my current lease, so I can wait. I contacted Mini Financial directly to see if I can order a Mini to my specifications, without going through a dealer. We'll see what they have to say.
