09/10 BMW 6-Series Lease Rates – June 2009

logo_bmwMy Take: The 2009 6-Series is looking like the better lease right now. Money factors are slightly lower, residuals are the same. I’m guessing sale price will be lower on the 09, so that should save you some additional cash. There’s $3000 customer cash and 0.9% financing on the 2009. On the 2010, you don’t have the cash, but you do have the 3.9% financing. Check out the 2010 vs 2009 payment comparison below…

09/10 BMW 6-Series Lease Rates – May 2009

logo_bmwMy Take: The 6-series for both 2009 and 2010 are pretty decent leases right now simply because the residual values are pretty high. You can probably drop them down a bit by using MSDs instead of cap cost reduction so be sure to opt for that instead. Another thing I want to stress, make sure you PAY off your inception fees INCLUDING the Acquisition fee. Many times, the Acquisition fee is rolled into the lease loan. Not a good idea since that is probably the largest of all inception fees. So you will be paying taxes AND interest on the largest fee of the bunch. Bad idea. Ask the dealer to identify all your inception fees, have him/her total them including applicable taxes and cut a check for that. As far as which one I would lease, I would probably opt for a 2009 model even if the money factor on the 2010 is only .00010 more than the 2009. I think the 2010 will have a higher base price anyway, so you might as well stick with the 09s since the residuals are practically identical.

09 BMW 6-Series, 7-Series, M6 Lease Rates – April 2009

logo_bmwMy Take: M6 rates are looking much better than the 6-series while the 7-series is not looking all that great this month. I’m not really in the mood to post lease estimates right now, so feel free to request a quick calculation if you really need one. There is 0.9% financing on the 650s and the M6 for up to 60 months. Nothing for the 7-series. No cash, nada.

09 BMW 6-Series Lease Rates – March 2009

logo_bmwMy Take: The 6-series and M6 were better last month prior to the mid-month revision. Still not a terrible lease because of fairly high money factor, but I find it difficult to pay upwards of 4.5% interest on a car with this price tag. There is $3000 in conquest cash and another $3000 in loyalty cash available to the consumer. The loyalty cash is available to current AND returning BMW customers, so you don’t necessarily have to be leasing a BMW right now to qualify. 0.9% is financing is also available (the better choice in this case) for up to 60 months.

BMW Revises Lease Rates for February 2009

My Take: In an unusual move. BMW revised some of their lease rates for February. I haven’t really gotten around to look through everything in detail, but at first glance, the 3-series seems to have gotten hit with a higher money factor. OUCH! This is rather unexpected since most lease rates change from month to month, not twice in a month. This does put a damper on the hopes that the next few months will bring better rates. Hopefully some of you were able to jump in on the lower rates.

Anyway, my laptop died tonight, so I will not be able to address any questions you may have until tomorrow night or Friday.

09 BMW Lease Rates for January 2009

My Take: ALRIGHT FOLKS! I’m officially back! Thank you for your patience while I was on vacation. I had a fantastic time off! I’m jetlagged like no other so I thought I’d take the time to post the first least rates of the year 2009! I got a bunch of “catching up” to do so I’m sorry if I didn’t get to your emails in time. In any case, You all ready for the bad news? Leasing got more expensive for BMWs this month. BMW’s 2009 January rates look worst than December because of the drop in residual value. The money factors are practically unchanged, so you know the news this month is far from good. If you gotta lease a car this month, well do your homework and shop around. I didn’t include the “worse” BMW lease on this list (yes, there are worse ones), I’m reserving those for January’s DO NOT LEASE list.

My Take: BMW’s December lease rates leave a lot to be desired if you ask me. I’ve been wait for the 1-series’ money factor to drop a little bit since it is such an “intriguing” little ride. Yes, it’s ugly, but it’s hella fast (135i). With a residual value of 68% for 24 months, it would be nice to get a nice .001 discount off the current MF to make this ride a “must lease” on my list. The 3-series is looking pretty much like last month, same goes for the 5-series. X3 looks promising with it’s high residual and relatively “low” money factor. The 6-series and X5 is “okay”, while the “worst lease of the month” title goes to the X6 and the M-models. Not unexpected since they are more of a “niche” model than anything else.

November 2008 Lease Rate for 09 BMW Models

My Take: Finally! The comprehensive list of 09 BMW lease rates is out! The 1-series practically remains unchanged, but BMWFS seems to have cut the money factors a bit on the 3-series, with the residual values remaining unchanged. That good news for those looking to get into a the 3-series. The 1-series is worth a look still due to it’s unusually high residual value. Other notable models include the 528i and the X5. Please keep in mind that BMW dealers seem to be oblivious to the fact that there is a recession going on, so they won’t exactly lease you the car for “dirt cheap”. If you were hoping for that, you will be sorely disappointed. Now, if you are looking to buy, there is 0.9% financing available on select 09 models so it may be worth considering a purchase.
