Alrighty, so hopefully this is my final question. Aside from interest and tax on a monthly payment, are there any other monthly fees? Thanks for all of the help.

Nope.. the depreciation part of the payment is based on the net cap cost, which may or may not include any up front fees you decided to roll in.
Add interest ("rent charge" for a lease) and tax, and you have your monthly payment.

Great! I will more than likely pay those upfront fees instead of rolling them into my payments. Thanks for all of your help. I am looking at roughly $400 a mo. for a 40,664 sell price. Pretty fair?

If they were marking up the money factor the max to .00169, then the payment would be $31/mo. higher.. so, that might be something to check on.
I'm not sure this is going to the correct forum, but I am currently helping my niece lease a 328i. Her dad wants to do a lump sum lease and pay it all at once. I understand the advantage is that there will be no "rent charge" but can someone explain to me what would happen if the car is totaled or stolen? I've always lived by the philosophy that you put as close to zero out of pocket for a lease because you wont get it back if you total it on the way home from the dealer. Thanks in advance.
Unsure to be completely honest, based on the deal I put together from info here, I was using $57000 as cap cost. I just emailed my salesman about the updated deals as my car is still not on the boat and payment actually dropped to $642, my assumption is they are being extremely transparent being that I didn't look in to the $1000 credit and only the money factor/residual change for May which brought my calculation to $651.xx....and I told them as much. First BMW leasing experience is a HUGE positive so far and it's a credit to the information you guys provide. 6 months ago I was going to be happy paying $649/mo on a loaded 328 with $3000 down!

Actually, there will still be a rent charge... It will just be incorporated into the single-payment. At this time, I don't think BMW offers a money factor discount for a prepaid lease. You'd be much better off using the MSD program, though you'll still have monthly payments.
The calculations on a one-pay lease aren't really intuitive. In general, the money factor is reduced, in exchange for paying the lease upfront. But, it's calculated as a normal lease, just with the reduced money factor. The new, lower payment is multiplied by the lease term, and that is the single-payment.
Unlike a big CAP cost reduction, if the car is totaled, it's assumed that the payments have been paid monthly, and the unused portion of the single-payment is refunded.
But, as noted above, BMWFS isn't giving any discounts for single-payment leases at this time.
Can someone help my figure out if this is a good deal? MSRP: 42,550 Preferred Customer Discount: 4,550 Selling Price: 38,000 + fees, tax = Out the Door: 41,530.18
As for the lease deal, I am putting $2000 down and putting down a 7 month security deposit payment of $2,450 (returned to me at the end of the lease)
36 month lease, 10k miles, 332.79 a month including tax (311.02 base payment)
Not sure about the MF but i believe the residual is 66%

I confirm 66% for 36/10 on the 328i or 328xi. MF is .00129; .00080 after 7 MSD.
However, I can't get to the payment you're being quoted. Using $42,550 as the MSRP and $39,530 as the net cap cost (assuming the entire $2K is going to cap cost reduction), and the .00080 MF, I get a pre-tax payment of $372.06. Not sure how the dealer is saving you $1500; ask them to show you the math.

If you're maxing out the MSD, the only way to make the deal better is to negotiate a lower selling price.
Residual for 36/10 on 328i vs 328 d in both sedan and sports wagon configurations, please. I'm shopping demo/lease loaner vehicles and looking to absorb $11,500 negative equity in a 36/10 lease. We've gotten close over the phone on a few, believe it or not, so having MF and residuals for June will be very helpful.

Hey guys.... I have been anxiously waiting and planning on getting a new bmw after paying off student loans for the last 2.5 years. Now completely out of debt, I went to see what kind of deal I could get and here is what we settled on. I'm hoping you can tell me if I got a good deal or not.... Keep in mind I know the base MF is .00129, but I also know my credit score falls somewhere between 670-690, so I wasn't sure if I could get that. I think a .00149 MF represents a difference of $10-15 per month from the .00129.
Lease
2015 328i Mineral White w/ saddle brown leather
MSRP: 48,735 Selling Price: 44,251 + fees, -$2000 for trade in MF: .00149 Residual: .65
Texas sales tax of 6.25%
36 mo/12k miles
Will write check for $1507 out the door with first months payment included, 35 more payments of $485 even (tax is included on that number)
After I had left the dealership, leaving with an offer of $2000 out the door and a payment around $530 (which I knew was significantly higher than it should've been) I called back and offered a check for $1500 and 475 a month. Within 5 minutes they called me back and offered the $1507 and $485 and I took it. The discount from MSRP was over 9%, which seems to be a pretty steep discount (isn't 5-7% good to shoot for?). Just wanted to see what those of you with more experience think.
It's my first ever lease, and I have spent so many hours on these (and other forums) trying to make sure I got a decent deal. They are detailing it for me in the morning and I will pick it up tomorrow afternoon, so let me know of anything else I should be wary of or ask about. Thanks!

There is a $1000 anniversary incentive on this model, this month. But, your discount before subtracting the $1000 is still over 7%, so that's good..
Base MF this month is .00128. Doesn't seem as though you are sure the bump is for credit rating or just a profit markup, though.
Your payment looks about right, with taxes.. As you noted, the money factor increase is about $16/mo.
Hello, I'm planning to lease a BMW and deciding between a 320i or a 328i ...10K miles and 36mo lease. Could you please let me know the MF and Residual on these cars?

What is the difference in residual between 36/10 and 36/12? Please provide residual and MF - 36/12K miles - for 328xi and 328xi GT. Also, in addition to the $1,000 anniversary incentive are there other incentives/rebates to take advantage off in June? Thanks.

With that adjusted CAP cost, I get $275/mo.+tax, so $299/mo.looks right, assuming approx 8% tax rate.
What you don't list is the amount due at signing. I'd guess all those "other fees", plus the $2100 in MSDs, plus 1st payment are all due at signing. (minus the acq.fee..that looks to be in the CAP?)
Total Add Cap: Looks like a marked-up acquisition fee ($795 base). Hopefully, that's in the payment. Cap cost reduction: Downpayment included in your due at signing, to get the payment under $300. Cap Cost tax: Any amounts paid upfront have to be taxed upfront.
So, is your "due at signing" $299 1st payment $2100 MSDs $700 other fees/CCR
If it's $3100 upfront and $299/mo, that's a great deal... Especially with $2100 coming back at lease end.

Thanks for the response. You nailed it exactly as it is $3100 up front ($2100 of it on MSD, $263.36 cap cost reduction, rest are fees)
So my question is it normal practice for BMW to include the "Total Add Cap" (guessing Acq Fee) into the CAP cost? Because excluding it and paying it as a one time fee would lower the payment.
This was just the initial offer I got without negotiating was a bit skeptical if it was a good deal or not.

Add interest ("rent charge" for a lease) and tax, and you have your monthly payment.

Will write check for $1507 out the door with first months payment included, 35 more payments of $485 even (tax is included on that number)
After I had left the dealership, leaving with an offer of $2000 out the door and a payment around $530 (which I knew was significantly higher than it should've been) I called back and offered a check for $1500 and 475 a month. Within 5 minutes they called me back and offered the $1507 and $485 and I took it. The discount from MSRP was over 9%, which seems to be a pretty steep discount (isn't 5-7% good to shoot for?). Just wanted to see what those of you with more experience think.
It's my first ever lease, and I have spent so many hours on these (and other forums) trying to make sure I got a decent deal. They are detailing it for me in the morning and I will pick it up tomorrow afternoon, so let me know of anything else I should be wary of or ask about. Thanks!
Base MF this month is .00128. Doesn't seem as though you are sure the bump is for credit rating or just a profit markup, though.
Your payment looks about right, with taxes.. As you noted, the money factor increase is about $16/mo.

The worksheet he sent me is slightly confusing as it's slightly more complicated on the wording than I'm used to from my last lease (e.g. Total Add Cap Cost = Bank Fee?)
It seems the "Total Add Cap Cost" which I'm guessing is the Bank Fee is rolled into the Adjusted Cap Cost (but it doesn't state that on the worksheet). Is this normal practice?
Could I get some input on this? TIA!
What you don't list is the amount due at signing. I'd guess all those "other fees", plus the $2100 in MSDs, plus 1st payment are all due at signing. (minus the acq.fee..that looks to be in the CAP?)
Total Add Cap: Looks like a marked-up acquisition fee ($795 base). Hopefully, that's in the payment.
Cap cost reduction: Downpayment included in your due at signing, to get the payment under $300.
Cap Cost tax: Any amounts paid upfront have to be taxed upfront.
So, is your "due at signing"
$299 1st payment
$2100 MSDs
$700 other fees/CCR
If it's $3100 upfront and $299/mo, that's a great deal... Especially with $2100 coming back at lease end.

Thanks for the response. You nailed it exactly as it is $3100 up front ($2100 of it on MSD, $263.36 cap cost reduction, rest are fees)
So my question is it normal practice for BMW to include the "Total Add Cap" (guessing Acq Fee) into the CAP cost? Because excluding it and paying it as a one time fee would lower the payment.
This was just the initial offer I got without negotiating was a bit skeptical if it was a good deal or not.
Thanks!
