The 2009 335i Coupe that you're interested in probably has a spread of around $3,300 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. Plus, BMW is providing a $1,000 cash incentive on leases of this car right now. That gives you a total of $4,300 to play with during your negotiations. You were quoted a discount of $4,150, which is a very good deal, even with the acquisition fee markup. Just make sure that the dealer uses BMW FS' buy rate lease money factor of .00175 to calculate your payment and you're in business.

We figured out that he was inflating the MSRP by $1000 to give us that deal! So we went with that idea and asked him for the same deal, offering $48,650 on a car in stock at an MSRP of $52,800 that we confirmed. He offered $49,300, indicating it's $200 over invoice price. I think we're going to take that deal and now make sure he's not taking it back with excessive fees! In his initial offer, he included the bank fee in the inception fees as well as amortizing it into the monthly payments! We're busting out our laptop during the calculations to check the math. =D
Is this price possible? I have spoken to the rep there about some other cars but took notice of the BMW today. They show their price as 33,526.00 for this car.
Thanks
Rob
This lease program may be combined with the $1,260 option credit and $1,000 lease cash that are currently available on the 335i Sedan.

1) What is the 1260 option offer? What does that cover and to which vehicles does it apply?
2) The BMW website has special lease offers that seem very very attractive. If you plug in their numbers into a lease calculator (including MSRP and residual values), the only way to come up with monthly payments that low is to lower the money factor to 0.00115 (even while accounting for cap cost reductions and incentives). Is this real or what? Can these numbers be applied to any cars or are they just B.S.
3) My dealer is offering 0.00225 with 60% residual on a 328i xDrive with premium, cold package, and ipod and MSRP around 43050. He says that with just fees upfront, my monthly payments are around 550. Plugging these into the calculator places the sale price at around 40,500. Is this reasonable? It seems a bit high given the rebates etc.
Thanks...
Do we know what the residual and money factor for this car are for July? I know the $1k incentive is still around. Anything else in the way of incentives that I might qualify for?
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=279671
Bmwusa.com is still showing a $1,000 cash incentive on 3 series leases. I'm probably going to buy this time around with 1.9% financing available.

The advertised payments that are mentioned on BMW's website are indeed real. They work out. Perhaps your calculations are off.
If I was in the market for this car, I personally would shoot for a selling price of $500 to $750 over dealer invoice minus the $2,840 in cash incentives. You can look up the invoice price for the exact model that you're interested in over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of this site.

Since you aren't taking advantage of the free automatic transmission option credit, which actually isn't available on this trim level anyhow, the only cash incentive on this car right now is the $1,000 that you mentioned.

$660 over dealer invoice plus the use of BMW FS' buy rate lease money factor and no acquisition fee mark-up is a pretty good deal on this car. I particularly like how the dealer wasn't trying to pull one over on you by marking up everything under the sun to add hidden profit to your deal. If you like the car, I personally don't see any reason not to go for it.

right now most dealers are holding firm on 3k off of msrp on a 44.5 to 45k 328i coupe.
my monthly on a 36 month 36k lease is around 588 including ca tax with 1290 drive off. what can i do to get them to drop about another one thousand?
I was recently quoted an only 54% 3-year residual value and .003 money factor for a 2009 M3 lease...both sounded like BS to me, considering the terms posted by BMW on 335 leases and financing in general. Would much appreciate it if anyone can shed light, since I don't have any other way to verify these. Thanks!
What are the current incentives available on an '09 328xi coupe with premium and automatic trans for a current bmwfs customer?
From what I've read, it seems that the coupe's money factor is more favorable than the sedan's (.00135 vs. .00225).
Using the following MSRP of 43,900 with an invoice of 40,465 and assuming I could get it for $500 over invoice (minus incentives), please give me an idea of what I might expect to pay monthly for a 24/15 or 36/15 lease with required $ down.
My car isn't due back for another few months and they haven't offered me any sort of early lease return deal.
Finally, is it true that I can request a refund for miles I haven't used on my current car?
Thank you

They said I'll be paying $500 over invoice. Is this a good deal?

my cap cost is nearly 5k more than yours but when money down is factored in, i pay 5 dollars more a month than you. then add the difference in allowable mileage which is approx 25 dollars. so my payment with all things being equal would be 30 dollars a month more than yours despite my cap cost being 5k higher. rule of thumb for every 1000 dollars negotiated it's about a 30 to 40 dollars a month difference in the lease depending on money factor and residual. so in my opinion you're paying over 100-120 more than you should be. when i see 38k for cap cost i'm thinking high 400s for your payment considering 15k a year..

Mileage Allowance
The monthly payment and residual for this lease has been calculated using the following mileage allowance. You are allowed to drive 12,000 per year, 1,000 miles per month. If you exceed the mileage allowance for the lease term and do not purchase the Vehicle, you will pay 0.20 for each excess mile.
Or could you help to calculate:
MSRP: 43,000
Term: 36 month
Miles per Year: 12,000
Down Payment: $2,000
Thanks in advance.

The 54% residual value that you were quoted actually looks a little high to me. BMW's resids on M3s are pretty bad right now.

Let's work up a couple of sample lease payments on this car for you using the latest program info that I've seen. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2009 BMW 328xi Coupe that has an MSRP of $43,900 and a selling price of $39,965 ($500 over invoice minus the loyalty cash) through BMW Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $596. The payment for an otherwise identical 24 month lease would be around $622.
Normally lessees do not receive any sort of refund for unused miles.

What is the expected money factor and res?
What should my payment be with zero money down and if I use the MSD's?
Help!!
The monthly came out to $471.88+tax at a MF of .00220 for 10k miles. The driveoff was a bit high at $2559.83 but that includes 1 refundable security deposit of $550 and the 1st month's payment. I wish BMW's acquisition/bank fee was a bit lower though, since $725 is pure profit for them.
I think if i chose black or silver I could've knocked off a couple hundred dollars from the sales price since those are the standard colors here in LA but oh well.
As far as this car's selling price goes, $500 over dealer invoice may or may not be a good deal. Whether it is depends upon whether it is before or after the available cash incentives are deducted. BMW is currently providing $1,000 loyalty cash and a $1,260 option credit on this model. If you are eligible for the loyalty cash or if this car is eligible for the option credit, or both and these incentives are not being taken into account on your deal then you are actually paying much more than $500 over invoice. If you aren't eligible for either of these allowances or if the $500 over invoice is after they have already been taken out, then this is an excellent selling price.

I don't believe that BMW is advertising the option credits that it is providing on select 3-Series Sedans, but trust me it definitely exists.
One other thing, BMW dealers are notorious for marking up vehicles' money factors to add additional, hidden back-end profit to deals. Make sure that the dealer that you are working with uses BMW Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor of .00220 to calculate your car's payment.
