    What's the residual for the shortest lease you can do? What would that be, 24 months?

    Does that mean 65% for 36/10?

    68% for 24/15.

    Yes, add 3% to go from 15K to 10K miles per year.

    .00130 MF and 64% residual

    If the selling price equals the CAP cost, the payment would be $651/mo.+tax. (which is pretty close to your payment).

    So, the question becomes: Is $3000 upfront fair?
    $795 acquisition fee, $695 1st payment, $500 title/registration/doc fees (?).

    That's only $2000... so, maybe the deal is about $1000 high.

    Also, $2500 off MSRP is only about 4%.. I would shoot for 6-7% off... That's another $1000, at least..

    So, $695/mo. with $1000 due at signing would be a fair deal. (IMHO).

    The numbers are right on the money.. no markups and 6.7% off MSRP.. (plus the UDE rebate!).

    The only thing I would do differently is roll the tax and acquisition fee into the CAP cost... That changes the payment to $517.mo.

    This is NY, right?

    Yes. Thank you. It seemed to be a pretty transparent deal offered from the dealer. With such a big purchase a second opinion is always appreciated. I will probably go ahead and pay the tax up front with a zero interest for one year credit card offer I took advantage of. I really like the idea of keeping monthly down as much as I can without out of pocket cap cost.

    So based on what you're saying and confirmed by both edmunds true market and truecar, I'm going to shop around. With this better understanding it looks like I can save $1100 up front and $30+/mo.
    Thank you so much!

    .00130 and 65%.

    Not 100% certain that BMW offers 7500 mile leases, but if they do, add 1% to the 10K number provided.

    So I've shopped around and pitted 2 dealers against each other. Left my up front fees($1500) as a deposit today as the car I want has to be ordered.
    2015 335i x drive m sport. Premium/tech/driver assistance 1/dynamic handling/Harmon kardon/paddle shifters/m sport brakes and associated 19" wheels. Sticker is $60875, with the $1500 total out of pocket and 12k/36mo, payment is $670 including tax.
    How'd I do?

        That's just a copy/paste of the advertised national lease deal. Do you have an actual offer?

        I reached out to couple of dealers last night for their offers, thought I would base my negotiations with them on the advice I get here. 
        Will post the quotes I get

        The short answer is no, this deal sucks....do yourself a huge favor and learn about leasing. BMW offers the best lease deals due to inflated residual values of their vehicles. In order to obtain a good deal, you need to understand all the different parts of a lease. What is the MSRP of the vehicle, the selling price, the invoice price, the money factor, acquisition fee, doc fee and any other associated costs. The biggest thing to remember, is please don't be a payment buyer, the dealer will juggle the numbers to get to your desired payment. Edmunds has a great lease calculator and you can plug in numbers to see how the different variables affect the monthly payment. The other advice I could give you is NEVER put money down to de cap the lease. All you are doing is just prepaying the lease, with the added risk of putting your down payment at risk, if anything ever happens to the car. Instead, you can use multiple security deposits(MSD) which lower the money factor(the lease interest rate) and are fully refundable at the lease end.

        Lastly, do you want to lease off the lot or order a car? If you want to order a car, you could do a PCD delivery in Spartanburg and use any dealer in the nation. If you want to find a reputable CA, look on the other BMW forums for a recommendation of CA's in your area, try Bimmerfest or Bimmerpost.

        Good luck

        Was at the dealership last Saturday and the salesman brewed up a 1.69% interest rate. Does this sound right?

        I keep seeing .00129 (3.096%) around here so I'm thinking this guy is unsure of what he is talking about.
        Also, how does the $1000 anniversary credit work; when does it apply?

        It's more likely that he is trying to quote .00169 MF. Which is the maximum mark-up from the base rate of .00129. He knows what he is talking about, he is just trying to hide the true number.

        Pretty sure that the $1000 has to be shown as a CAP cost reduction on the lease (Manufacturer to consumer rebate). In other words, it will be taxed.

        Here is the quote I got for 2015 328i xdrive : MRSP: 48150
        selling price: 43543

        MF: 0.00129
        residual: 72% (2yr/10k)
        state: NJ (7% sales tax)

        down: 3159 (includes tax,dmv fee, acquisition fee(995) + first payment)
        monthly installment: 504 (2yrs/10k)

        Does the calculations look good? Where can I find the inventory price based on which i can negotiate? what should be my target price?

        Appreciate your help.

        Thank you! I just double checked and he ran numbers for a 1.9% APR interest rate. So essentially he supposedly ran monthly payments with a 0.00079 MF, if the 1.9% rate was true. Correct me if I'm wrong. Also, he did not mention anything about an anniversary credit. Can salesmen really not tell you about these things? I'm glad I walked off the lot; I said I would be back after doing some research.

        I am eyeing a 328i that is about 45k MRSP. Hopefully I'll be able to get it down to 40-41k (is this possible?). Once I negotiate the price down to as close as invoice price I possibly can, should I bring up money factor, residual, security deposit, etc? What's the most fool proof method to make my payments as low as possible? Sorry, this must be a really general question. As you can tell, this is my first time negotiating a lease. My primary concern is how the math is once I'm done negotiating a sales price.

        Here's an example I came up with, let me know if it's accurate.
        MSRP: $45000
        Selling price: $40500
        Residual value: $29250 (65%)
        Depreciation: $11250 (36 mo. / 12k mi)
        Monthly depreciation: $312.50

        Now here is where I am confused. With an interest rate of 1.92%, how do I calculate monthly interest to add to the monthly depreciation? (CA Sales tax @ 7.5%).
