Jason, here's the answer to the 1-Series question that you posted over in the 3-Series discussion.
 
BMW Financial Services' April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 128i Convertible with 10,000 miles per year are .00225 and 62%, respectively.

You are out of your mind if you think the 135i is too ugly or too rough. It is one of the best looking convertibles out there! As far as comparing it to the 335i, they are apples and oranges. If you need more passenger space, get the 335. If you just need a rush and have no need for space, get the 135. In fact, with the top down, the 135i has an edge in usable trunk space.
 
I drove both and although both are beautiful, I chose the 135i because it was faster, better handling, nine inches shorter and better looking, IMO.
 
The reason it may not be selling as well in certain areas, is because it definitely is a luxury item. In this economy, many people are looking to be practical and cannot or will not consider a fun, weekend car.
 
By the way, I have met some sleazebag salesmen. However, many of the sales people I've dealt with are actually quite decent and helpful. You need to do your research and be knowledgeable about the vehicle you are intending to buy. Don't expect the salesperson to feed you unbiased information. After all, they need to make a living, too.

Can anyone tell me the buy rate to lease 135i convertible this month?
Any incentives from BMW to the dealer?
I was quoted:
MSRP: 50778
Cap: unknown
MF: .0025
drive off 3800
36 months 30,000 miles total
608+ tax
sounds pretty high to me.
Please help

Hi cc12359. Here's the information that you're looking for. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 135i Convertible with 10,000 miles per year are .00250 and 62%, respectively.

128 convertible by caren1

I am getting ready to lease a 2009 128 convertible. I am aware of the $750 cash incentive for the lease. Are there any other incentives I should be looking for? Is invoice an appropriate price at the current time? I have not seen many postings about this car, so any help is appreciated. Thanks

Hi caren1. BMW's June incentives for the 2009 128i Convertible are fairly similar to what they were in June. The $750 is still there and its money factors / residual values are exactly the same.
 
As far as how much you should pay for this car goes, I am not intimately familiar with what the market is like for it right now. You may be able to get an idea of how much you should pay by visiting the "BMW 1-Series Prices Paid and Buying Experience" discussion.

My lease quote by klynch06

Hi,
 
I just left a BWW dealership in Boston. I was trying to lease a 128i convertible with automatic, heated seats and iPod. MSRP $37,025, Sale price, $34,750 they wanted $3,880 down (cap cost reduction) plus all fees, (PDI, Training, MACO) and taxes, he said my cost would be $330 a month plus taxes with 10k miles a year. I know you guys say never to pay cap costs and I really wanted 15k miles a year. He would not give me residual. or MF so I just left. Can you tell me what I should be paying a month without the capital cost reduction? I have also read on here there where security deposits I can pay to lower the monthly payment instead of a capital cost reduction, do you recommend that?
 
Thanks so much,
Keith

lease question by jasonshaver

After reviewing some information, I left a BMW dealership with some numbers that I wanted to run by someone to see if it sounded right. Below is the information.
 
MSRP 34475 (128i metallic paint and premium pkg only)
purchase price 33440
aquisition fee 925
Residual 59% at 36 months for 12K yr
money factor .00255
Lease Rebate Cash 750
Trade in value(paid for) 4500
NC tax 3%
 
And the dealer quoted me 410.xx a month, using only the 4500 down with the first payment included in that, no other out of pocket. Does that sound right? Any input greated appreciated!

assume your 33440 is before all those listed below (acq, rebate, tax), then the 410 monthly pmt is about right.. I did a quick cal, and got 400.xx
