I got an e-mail today from BMW NA today. They recently notified the dealers that this is no longer acceptable. On a 2001 530 Euro Delivery I paid over $2,000 extra on the lease because of this sleight of hand by the dealer. Finally BMW is cracking down on the dealers for this.
Always check the math, using a program like "lease wizard". The salesman typically does not explain the lease payment math so it is up to the buyer to check their math. BMW money factors are posted on RF on the lease finance section. You can tell the dealer that now it is contrary to BMW policy to base the residual value on US MSRP for Euro Delivery.
