Thanks for your help on this
If I buy it I will have to finance the amount. I made 7 multiple security deposits --appx $4000
So, what are your suggestions? I am going to need another wagon. Thanks.

Is this a decent deal.

As I awaiting delivery of my 2009 535xi,,( expected in 2 weeks)...has BMW changed the money factor and residuals for returning lease customers with any owner loyalty since Septmber for the 2009's ?
if the deal gets better before my delivery...then I could benefit.
Thanks

I have decided to return it anyway because I cannot imagine not getting my hands on the new 535 twin turbo engine. I am going to pick up my new car today. I just thought folks would want to know that BMWFS is hungry to help you buy out your lease! He told me 8k was the maximum rebate they could offer. I did not press him any harder.
I saw the new lease specials on BMWusa.com for the 2008 528i lease @ $499/mo 10kmi 36months, MSRP of $47,825.00. I went to the local dealer and found a car and they came in over $90/mo more. I was putting down $2500cap cost, first payment and security deposit along with taxes. I cannot understand why they aren't able to build the config based off the website. I'm assuming they are jacking up the moneyfactor or something. I quailiy for the special lease offer.
Can you provide the Oct specials for 2008 528i money factor & residual value ??
I applicate the help.
528i Premium pkg with Nav
15K miles/year
36 months
$2000 drive (incl. 1st month and DMV fees)
$635.67 per month including tax
Worked pretty hard for this one. How is this deal????
As far as making a $2,500 capitalized cost reduction goes, I personally always advise consumers not to make any. Those who do risk losing them if their vehicle is stolen and never recovered or totaled in an accident. It is safer to go with a zero down lease.

What about 12k and 15k per year, 36 month on a 528i? (MF and residual). Thanks.
The lease rates on the 2008 BMW 528i are quite attractive.
36 Months, 12K Miles/Year - 57% - 0.00100
36 Months, 15K Miles/Year - 55% - 0.00100
Best,

This forum was very helpful on my last lease. I appreciate the assistance.
I have not had an opportunity to take a look at BMW's new November lease program yet, but I suspect that I will in the next day or two. If you still need the program information that you mentioned, please post a reminder for me in this discussion in a day or two and I'll let you know what I have been able to find out.

My deal was predicated on the Sept/ Oct rates for a returning customer.
I was hoping that "Car Man" could help me with this information so I can renegotiate my deal for better rates and monthly payments.
Will the owner loyalty come back? residuals? Premium credits of any kind? Money factor changes for the better?
I appreciate any help.....thank you

2008 528xi - 12k miles - 36months lease
car had 5k miles on it, it was demo.
sticker was 52k but they sold it for 43k to me.
put down 3200total.. 2500cap cost, 1st month and plates/dmv fees.
payment $505/month
got a full tax credit! which saved 4k off the bat.
Was it a good deal? I spent 6hrs at the dealer beating them down.
Took ALLOT of time to get them to go down. actually told them when i was in the finance room getting ready to sign the contracts that I changed my mind and would come back after looking around, at that time the payment was $530, so they changed it to 505$ and I signed and left.
My lease for the 06 530i is about to end in December. I need some expert advise on what to do next:
1. Buy the car through dealer or BMWFS? who will give me a better deal?
2. What is the best rate for finance the car, if I decided to buy, BMWFS or ...?
Please advise asap, since I don't have much time for the lease.
Thanks in advance!
hoping to get the mf and residuals for 10k mi/yr for 36 months on a 2008 528i.
thanks!
I was hoping to get some ballpark numbers to see if leasing a 1 or 2 year old 5 series would be the same payment as leasing a new 3 series.
$740 per month....taxes upfront
36 months....15K miles per year
car sold $100 over invoice
November money factor better...
For now, here are the rates:
http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=324865
this site is useful to compute the lease payment:
http://www.leaseguide.com/calc.htm
$43,000 would yield a payment of $392.47 assuming a $2500 cap cost reduction.
Not sure where the other $3,900 went. Was an acquisition fee added to the $43K? Did they reduce the residual below 57% because of the miles? What was the MF?
I have learned a lot from these forums. I just read the Edmunds "10 Steps..." and I still can't figure out, why would you choose to lease a car, if at the end of the procedure, you are left with nothing, and you n eed to start all over again? After two cycles of that, you would have paid off a car. Why doesn't the prospect of permanent car payments, plus the down payment on a lease which is never recovered, be attractive? Can a single person with out a business reason for the car, get a tax deduction off FedINc Taxes? I don't think so. Just curious, I'm trying to learn more, and thanks so much. I've really gotten a lot out of these forums. Amazing depth of knowledge displayed here, my hat is off to you!

Shortly thereafter I was contacted by my local dealer, who suggested that they would sell it to me for much less than the residual. I contacted the dealer who offered to sell it to me for $23,800 and, if I wanted, would certify (the CPO) program for additional $1900, assuming it didn't need any work (it doesn't). In addition, because it was now a CPO vehicle, I would be entitled to 60 month financing at 3.9%.
This deal seems pretty attractive to me, though I was shocked at how little similar vehicles are selling for on ebaymotors. I may yet buy it, although I have already committed to leasing a 2008 535iX (delivery in a few days), the terms of which I will put in a separate post.
