Yes you are right. Sorry about that, was looking at the wrong residual.

Does the MF posted above for the 28i apply to 35i as well?
 
Thanks

#76 of 102 Dealer offering 0.0017 money factor but cutting the price by sepi60

Mar 23, 2013 (11:03 am)

Hi Everyone,
 
The dealer that I'm negotiating with tells me his money factor is 0.0017 for X1 because they are in red. I guess they want me to think that they are selling at loss. (I got a price about $800 above Edmunds.com invoice price, and $300 above the dealers invoice price - Their invoice price was $500 more than Edmunds.com apparently due to advertising fee).
 
So, anyways, I walked away, saying that the market rate is 0.0013, and if they can't afford it, I won't take the deal.
 
Now, the dealer has called me again, offering to cut from the price to account for the higher money factor. (They need to cut at least $1200 to match the difference).
 
What do you think about it? Should I go for it? or this is just another gimmick of a dishonest dealer, and I better avoid them altogether?
 
Thanks,
 
sepi

Hi sepi. I personally don't see why the dealer insists upon marking up your vehicle's money factor to the point that they are willing to sell you the vehicle below invoice minus incentives. I personally prefer to do deals as straight forward as possible with the buy rate money factor and whatever real selling price I can negotiate.
 
Having said that, if you have shopped around and this combination of a higher money factor and an abnormally low selling price results in the lowest monthly payment for the vehicle that you want then I personally don't see any reason not to go for it.

Thanks much Car_man,
 
In fact they didn't offer me $1200 discount, but just $200, plus a bmw rebate that I was already eligible for, and had taken it into account myself elsewhere.
 
So, I passed on their offer.
 
Thanks,

Hi Car Man,
 
Can you please advise MF and Residual for X1 10k 36 months for April?
Are there any incentives or cash backs this month?

#80 of 102 X1 36/month lease 10 000/miles by hugo5

Apr 03, 2013 (5:55 am)

I just heard back from the dealer (via email, so didn't have chance to discuss and ask). I told him I was looking for a basic X1 8 speed automatic, rear wheel drive, base color and interior (no extra charge), possibly with sun roof and heated front seats, (but not a must, to keep cost down), $1000 out of pocket, everything else rolled in.
With those extras, on Edmunds it has a
Total invoice Price $30,825
and an MSRP of $33,445
He told me that he found two matching cars and the monthly would be around $600!!!!
I had an X3 three years ago and paid less a month. Can somebody help me do the math?
Are there any incentives? I am not a returning customer, as we had a Jetta for the last three years, and what are the numbers for April?
My wife would like to come in around $350/month, and looking at last months without incentives (didn't see if there were any) I can tell that I will probably not be able to get there, but anything close would be good.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Hugo
