#557 of 1112 2008 X3 lease deals by john888

Oct 05, 2007 (7:01 pm)

Carman or anyone else,
 
Can you check if the price I was quoted below is good?
 
I'm a BWM FS returning lessee, returning a 2004 X3 end Oct. What special incentives do returning lessee get from BMW if any?
 
What are the current MF, residual, deals, etc for this car now?
 
Looking for lease 2008 X3 3.0 for 36 month, 15k miles per year with $0 down. What should be my monthly payment/fees?
 
Options:205 STEPTRONIC 6-Speed Automatic Transmission, 522 Xenon Adaptive Headlights, -- Metallic Paint, ZPP Premium Package.
 
They quoted price to us, but we did not advise them we are returning lessee and did not tell them we plan to lease - does it make a difference if we tell them and should we go back to the same dealer that we originally got the lease?
 
Price quoted by other new dealer:$40,850 + tax.
 
We are in New York City.
 
Thanks for any assistance/advice/info.

#560 of 1112 How negotiable is the money factor? by mhong33

Oct 08, 2007 (6:58 am)

Is it possible to negotiate down the money factor? I know that the money factor for existing BMW customers (around .00165) is much lower than the money factor for new customers. I am a new customer, and I have been quoted a MF of .00245 and .00225 at two different dealerships.
 
It seems that a small change in the MF can result in a big change in the monthly payment amount. So that seems just as important as the selling price, and yet everybody seems very focused on the selling price (for example, trying to get $1,000 over invoice). Am I missing something? I'm relatively new to this. Thanks.

Hi CAR_MAN,
 
Can you please tell me the residual and money factor for an 07 X3? I'm looking for a 24 or 36 month with 18000 miles.
 
Thanks a lot!

Hi jhyoo. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2007 X3 with 15,000 miles per year are .00225 and 75%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are .00225 and 65%. 15,000 miles per year is the highest mileage allowance that BMW FS publishes residual values for. If you need to drive more than this, you will have to purchase additional miles on a per-mile basis. It is less expensive to do so at lease signing than it is to wait until the scheduled end of your lease and have to pay an excess mileage penalty.

Oct 23, 2007 (4:54 pm)

Hi Car-man:
 
Any idea for the MF and % of residual of 36 terms on 2008 X3? Can I still get the MF=0.00165 and 69% for the 2008?
 
Thanks a lot

Here's the information that you're looking for, ckung. BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 BMW X3 with 15,000 miles per year are .00275 and 65%, respectively. BMW is providing a special .00065 reduction in the '08 X3's money factor for current BMW FS lessees.

Thanks, What about % of residual for 10k and 12k? IN addition, do you expect the rate is going to drop in Dec?
Thanks a lot

#566 of 1112 Buying an X3 2005 after leasing it by reufim

Oct 25, 2007 (5:44 pm)

At the end of 2004, I leased a 2005 X3 2.5
I have decided to buy it at the end of my lease (coming up end of Nov 2007). It has 23,000 miles and is in perfect shape.
Can anyone give me advice on how to prepare well to buy this car - what I can do to get the best deal and avoid any over payments?
I have never bought a car after leasing it so am unsure on how it goes and how much negotiating room I have.
Any assistance is appreciated.
