Car_man, thanks for the information. It is seemingly different from what the dealership provided. They stated that the residuals for a premium model are 58, 57, and 55% for 10,12, and 15k mile 39 month leases, respectively. If you find this conflicting information, do you have any suggestions on the best way to present it without coming off rude? I am not sure if they were checking through ally bank though. Could us bank be offering different figures?

You're welcome adiaz2331. General Motors uses all sorts of arcane model codes in its lease bulletin. The residual values that you were quoted by the dealer are probably right and I just misinterpreted them. The important number to focus on is the lease rate because that can often be marked up by dealers. Generally speaking, dealers do not have the ability to alter banks' published residual values.

Thanks for the reply! That's a good thing to know. I can't wait to get my ATS, right now I'm monitoring the rates each month, as I'm getting closer to the end of my current lease. Hope to have the lease paid off early because I'm almost at my mileage limit! lol.

Hi Carman:
 
Thanks for your advice on the 328xi. My lease ends in August but I will likely be returning it a month before (to Otto's BMW, PA) since I work at another state and have no time to go back once after July.
So my question would be comparing that 328 xi to an ATS, which has 2.0T, MSRP 45,235, top credit tier, 36 months, 13K (I don't know if GM offers 13K, if not, then around 12K), $0 down, includes sales taxes in PA, what would be the monthly payment after all the incentives (I know this is going to happen in July, but just want to get a sense of what's coming)
 
Thanks a lot!

You're welcome adiaz2331. Feel free to come back when you're closer to lease end. I'll be here.

You're welcome ranjohn. Just a heads up, you do not necessarily have to return your leased vehicle to the dealer that you originally leased it from. You can return it to any BMW dealer, as long as you contact them first and let them know. This might make things a little more convenient for you.
 
You can lease a vehicle through Ally with either 12,000 or 15,000 miles per year.
 
You can use the lease program data that's available here and the formula that is outlined in the following article to compare payments, Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.

Car_man would you happen to know if Ally will be releasing any Tax Credits to dealers this month for lease purchases?

I'm going to lease a 2.0 Turbo soon (probably this week).
  
Here's where I've got the dealer right now (In Nashville, TN) -- Any thoughts on whether I'm getting a good deal? Also -- What should the residual be right now with the below options?
  
Negotiated Price =$36,791 (MSRP = $37,795/Invoice = $36,411)
36 mo/15K mile lease
$430/mo
$2,000 down
RWD
Heated Seats (driver and passenger)
CUE and Surround Sound
Premium Floor Mats
Black Raven
Black Interior
6 Speed Auto
No Sunroof
 
ALSO -- are there any incentives that I should be aware of? I keep hearing about the GM credit card. I don't have one, would it help me significantly to get one before I lease?
 
Thanks!
