Hello tagster. BMW Financial Services' July buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 128i Coupe with 12,000 miles per year are .00195 and 51%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tiers.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '11 128i Convertible are .00195 and 51%.
 
These cars' money factors are .00030 lower for loyal customers.
 
The lease program for the 2012 1s is better than this right now.

Hello Carman,
 
Thanks for the numbers.
If you don't mind, can you tell me the lease program for the 2012 models as well?
Are you talking about 1-series coupe $2500 down / 10,000 miles / monthly $379 ?
What would be the money factor and residual for this program?
 
Thank you very much!

OOPS...typo--selling price on my 128i convertible was just UNDER $38k, not over. MSRP was $41,340. Selling price was $37,874.

Hello Carman,
  
I can not match the numbers BMW posts in the lease offer for July for the 135i coupe; they have:
 
MSRP $42,725 (Premium Package & Double Cluth Transmission & $875 Dest. & Hand.)
Purchase option $25,635 (60%)
$2500 down / 10,000 miles / monthly $439 ?
 
I can not get the $439/month using 60% residual (same as them) and 0.0012 money factor (0.0009 for loyal customers doesn't work either).
 
Do you know if there is any cash incentive or price reduction?
 
Thanks in advance.

Well.. .yeah... the ads don't tell you the dealer discount from MSRP...
 
In most BMW ads, it's about $1000 off ....

Hi crazyjojoe. BMW FS' current buy rate lease money factor for the 2012 135i Coupe is .00195. This factor drops by .00030 for loyal customers. I see that you are making additional security deposits. How many MSDs are you making? BMW FS provides a .00007 money factor reduction for each additional deposit. Make sure that the dealer is charging you the lowest possible money factor on your deal.
 
As far as the selling [rice goes, this car probably has a spread of around $3,500, give or take, between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. That probably puts you at a little over $1,000 over dealer invoice...which isn't bad. There's some room to play with there if you are in an area that has a decent level of competition and feel like shopping around, but again this deal isn't bad.

Hi Car man,
 
I am making 7 MSDs total. And this will(may) be my first BMW.
 
Thanks for you advise.
