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 -
Been lurking on the board for a while - thanks for your help educating us!
I'm in the market for 2012 128i. Can you let me know the money factor? Here is Houston couple dealers are already telling me .00235 while seeing .0016 in your posts and Bimmerfest.com. I'm currently leasing my 328i and think I should qualify for best rate.
Thanks!
Tony
