Hawaii BMW Car Dealers

HI - I am about to lease a new 2011 535 to replace my 2008 535 (lease ends June 8). I have started talking to dealers looking for a 535 with convenience and Premium 2 package - the quote i received doesn't match up to the math - what am i missing? What should i be factoring in that is non-negotiable (ie transportation fee, documentation, etc) Also, i'm a little fuzzy on how the option credit figures into this quote and how I can use this to my advantage. Any advice is greatly appreciated! Quote: (based on convenience, Prem 2, smartphone integration): Sticker: 59.5 Selling Price: 56.5 Residual: $34,524.50 Their numbers: $804.43 (incl CA tax) with $3000 down (12k miles / year) When i calculated the numbers, I come out to $810 / month (incl tax) WITHOUT any money down. I know I'm missing certain costs so wondering....where do i go from here?

HI, CarMan. You have me a bit concerned and confused. The $1500 incentive was for 535i ordered in Dec. So, that should be locked in,. But when the car arrives -- in Jan or Feb, I should be eligible for the MF in effect in Jan or Feb. After all, consider the alternative. Suppose I was just BUYING the car I ordered in Dec-- I'd still get the $1500 incentive when the car arrived in Jan or Feb. The fact that I'm leasing should entitle me to the MF (and loyalty MF) in effect when the car comes. Right?

Hi Everyone, I am hoping to get feedback on a lease quote I have negotiated on a 2011 x5 35i Premium. I would very much appreciate any comments/thoughts anyone could offer! (To qualify this a bit: i am not sure if I am out-of-touch with reality here, but I would like lease payment to be as close to 400-500/mo if possible) AWD 4dr 35i Premium Options: 3-STAGE HEATED FRONT SEATS (494) BMW ASSIST W/BLUETOOTH (639) BMW ON-BOARD NAVIGATION SYSTEM (609) COLD WEATHER PKG (ZCW) CONVENIENCE PKG (ZCV) MULTI-CONTOUR SEATS (456) PARK DISTANCE CONTROL (508) PREMIUM HI-FI SYSTEM (677) RUNNING BOARDS (328) TECHNOLOGY PKG (ZTP) Dealer gave me: Monthly Lease: $400/mo (x 35 remaining payments) TOTAL out-of-pocket: $19,000 down (absolutely insane) MSRP as built = $61,875 Sale Price = 58,200 BMW Financial's Acquisition Fee = 925 Residual = $37,125 (60%) Money Factor = .00225 Term = 36 months Mileage Allowance = 15,000 per year ------ After some negotiation, I am now at: Monthly Lease = $665.18 (x 35 remaining payments) TOTAL out-of-pocket = 10,000 (includes 665.18 1st payment and 275 MVA fees and 9,059.82 Cap Cost Reduction) MSRP as built = $61,875 Sale Price = 58,200 BMW Financial's Acquisition Fee = 925 Residual = $37,125 (60%) Money Factor = .00225 Term = 36 months Mileage Allowance = 15,000 per year What is most important to me in this deal: 1) A lower monthly payment followed by 2) reducing the amount of down payment, and 3) any idea if I can ask for part of the down payment/deposit back at the end of the lease? Any thoughts/suggestions on this deal is much appreciated! Thanks, John
