Hold off until your lease is up, then score a deal on an end-of-year 2018....

Also, how confident are you of getting 8-10% off MSRP? We suggest folks target 7%, though we have seen higher from time to time (read back through the last few pages of this thread).
Why shop now if you don't need a car?
Texas assesses sales tax against the entire selling price of the car, at 6.25%. Occasionally, tax credits exist that lower the effective tax rate to 1.25%, which is a great deal for you.
As you can see, there are pros and cons to both shopping now and waiting until your current lease is up.

I know they are offering a little over 10% off of the remaining 2017 340i (with no negotiation) they have and seem motivated to move the 2018s as well. I was going to target 8-10% of a 2018 in order to make the deal happen, because as you said, there's no harm in waiting. I do wonder if, historically, there is a better option than the current $3000 end of year lease credit that happens over the first half of the year.
With your knowledge of the industry, between now and next summer is there likely to be anything better than $4500 lease credit, that potential tax credit, and 8% off?
You're correct in that there's no current need to get a car, but I also want to make sure I don't pass up what might be my best opportunity to trade up.

Can you please advise if this deal is good? They would not change the MF. I'm doing a pull back on my current BMW 328i I have 4 months left but BMW only take care of the last 3 months so total out of pocket will be $1425 instead of 1k.
Thanks
A dealership in the Bay Area, CA, offers this to me today. Is this a good deal or not for a lease?
2018 BMW 330i
MSRP: $49,495
Negotiated Price: $43,803 (11.50% off MSRP)
Drive off payment: $1,700
Residual Value: 60%
Money Factor: 0.00192
36 month lease
Thanks,
$699 dealer fee... shewww..
So, you know the money factor is marked up ($15/mo)
And, the dealer fee just means the discount is smaller.
But, that's a big discount to start with.
Great residuals and big rebates make for a good lease.
$1000 upfront and $430/mo. is a good deal for a $47K MSRP vehicle.
I'd be willing to eat one payment to get that deal.

That way there is no wondering (did they already add the 3%? Is it for 15K or 10K?)
When they punch in the model and lease term, it fills in the 15K/yr percentage, so there is no question.

I have received the following quote on a 36/10000 lease:
BMW 340i xdrive, with m-sport, premium and driver assist.
MSRP: $59215 (net price: $58220)
Discount price: $53293.5
Add in service upgrade: $1549 (optional)
Price with service upgrade: $55142.5
Rebate/Incentives: $4000
Final Price with service upgrade: $51142.5 (it will drop to 49293.5 if I decline the upgrade)
MF: 0.00152
Doc fee: $300
Acquisition Fee: $925
Cap Tax (spoke over the phone, not entirely sure what this is): $37.xx
Tax: $2472.14 (tax rate: 10.75%)
Tag/Reg Fee (Delaware): $469 (dealer said this is refundable if not used)
Monthly payment (0 down), walk out with just the first month payment: $617.13
Does this look ok? Is there anywhere that it could do better (e.g. doc fee and registration fee)? Thank you so much!
If I add all of the fees to the $51,142 price (leaving out the tax), I get an adjusted CAP of $52,836 and a monthly price of $599/mo. (not including tax).
Not sure how tax is collected in Delaware, but that rate seems wrong, and doesn't match up with the tax number.
Are you in Delaware, or another state?
Anyway... on a 30,000 mile lease, why would you pay $1549 for a service upgrade? All scheduled maintenance is already included for the life of the lease. I certainly wouldn't pre-pay $1549 on the off chance that you might need brakes. When I bought a BMW in September, the maintenance upgrade (to cover brakes, etc) was only $600 for 36/36. $1649 for 48/50 (which you wouldn't need, in any case).
It looks like you have a pretty good deal working, but drop that maintenance plan, and ask them for the actual adjusted CAP cost. Also, clarify sales taxes.

Well, that's a good story about the maintenance upgrade. Maybe, it's true.
How can they quote you a price, if they don't know how the tax is calculated? So, the $617/mo. quote doesn't include tax, either?
Good luck!

We'd need a lot more information on your deal to form an opinion.

Please let me know if this is a good deal
And, we discourage large down payments on a lease - would you pre-pay rent on an apartment to save $50/mo? That money is at risk of being lost if the car is stolen or totaled.
10% off sticker is a positive, however.

Thank you for your reply.
I just wanted to pay drive off, which the salesperson told me it was $2500 for the drive off. I didnt want to downpay, just pay drive off.
Also I asked if the MF could be lowered to .00152 and he said the sales manager declined.
So, for a car at this MSRP, what would be considered a good deal?
Please reply.
The money factor markup is adding about $25/mo. to the monthly payment.
That's $900 over the term of the lease. You have to balance that against the $6100 discount they are giving from MSRP. Which is pretty darn good, especially when coupled with the $4500 in rebates.
They ask for $2500 upfront, because it's a nice round number, and it makes the payment lower, which helps sell the deal. This deal is pretty good, but you can structure the upfront however you want it. So, if you only want to pay $1000 at signing, the payment will be about $574/mo.
That part is entirely up to you, the dealer really couldn't care less.
I think it's a good deal as it sits, but that doesn't mean you can't ask for less.

If the $4500 includes the lease credit, then you could have saved some money there; we suggest you target 7% off sticker, before applying the incentives.
If you felt like the dealer wasn't being honest with you, you should have walked.
Consider this a lesson learned; in three years, come back and talk to us first before making a deal.
