2011 BMW Lease Rates – April 2010

Published 2010/04/162010/04/16 by G

logo_bmw My Take: Here’s a complete list of 2011 BMW lease rates, courtesy of our friend Tarry from LeaseCompare.com. Special thanks to Igor for the find. Greatly appreciated my friend. Quick overview, Good residuals, so-so money factors. For certain models, I would probably stick with the 2010 since there’s Spring cash and MF seems lower.

September 2008 Lease Rates for 08 BMW X5, Z4, 7-Series, 6-Series & X6

Published 2008/09/072009/02/25 by G

My Take: I started to notice a trend here with BMW leases this month. The massive drop in residual has made 24mo leases a really bad deal. On the flip-side, 36mo residuals remained the same and are rewarded with a new lower MF, making these leases CHEAPER than last month. VERY good time to jump into a X5 if that’s what you are looking to lease. I know that with gas prices at these levels, these SUVs aren’t exactly flying off the shelves. Nevertheless, some families do need the space, so now is not a bad the time. Better to lease one of these than to own them if you ask me.

24mo Payment: $929 at invoice, $1125 at MSRP

Last month’s payments on the same exact car:

X5 4.8i + Sport + Tech + Premium Packages
MSRP $63,775
Invoice $58,655
Standard inception fees + tax not included
Residuals posted are for 15K miles/year.

2008 BMW X5 4.8i 4WD SUV
24 Month – Residual 61% of MSRP – .00135 Base Rate
36 Month – Residual 55% of MSRP – .00135 Base Rate

24mo Payment: $955 at invoice, $1175 at MSRP
36mo Payment: $781 at invoice, $930 at MSRP

Last month’s payments on the same exact car:

24mo Payment: $892 at invoice, $1114 at MSRP
36mo Payment: $819 at invoice, $970 at MSRP

If you haven’t noticed, this month you can get a 4.8i at 36 months for about $11 more than leasing a 3.0si last month. For those who waited, I say WOO HOO! I would most definitely pony up $11 more a month to be in a 4.8i than on the 3.0si. That’s $11 more a month to drive in a car that’s has over $7000 more in upgrades. NICE! That’s $396 more over 3 yrs for those who like numbers.

Rest of the BMW line up:
I didn’t notice anything exceptional. I mean most people aren’t shopping for 7-series since the payments are more than some people’s mortgage. Don’t worry, I will still assist with payment calculations, just leave me comment or send me an email.

August 2008 Lease Rates for 08 BMW 7-Series

Published 2008/08/082009/02/25 by G

My Take: The 7-series rates for August remain unchanged, so nothing to sing about. Then again, if you can afford the 7-series, do you really care? Maybe, maybe not. Anyway, I’ll be using the 750Li as an example for the estimated monthly payments.

750Li + BMW Individual Composition + Vented Seats
MSRP $95,225
Invoice $86,820
Standard inception fees + tax
Lease rate in BOLD

24mo Payment: $1395 at invoice, $1764 at MSRP
36mo Payment: $1280 at invoice, $1532 at MSRP

Edmunds’ TMV suggests that the car can be leased at another $2000-$2800 under invoice. Some folks around the country have also reported at least 11k off MSRP on their leases. so it looks like payments can dip into $1272 for 24mo and $1196 for 36mo if you can go about $2800 under invoice. You can further cut that price by opting for the 12k or the 10k mileage allowances. Remember, if you are not a returning BMW customer, you may have to pay a security deposit to get the .00215 base rate.

My Take: Unfortunately, the lease rate for the 7-series has gone up a bit since June while the residual seems to have stayed the same. This means that the car will probably run you significantly more monthly. It seems that as the year progresses, leasing becomes more and more expensive, while financing and purchase incentives become better. Something to think about if you are looking to lease later in the year.

My Take: At first glance, the 5-series, 6-series and some of the 7-series have decent residual values along with lower money factors. At least they are much better than what Mercedes Benz is currently offering. You might want to hold out on the 1-series still. The residual values are strong, but the money factors are still too high in my opinion. Hopefully they start to drop some after the summer.
