Hi all,

Looking forward to purchasing a 335i coupe soon but was wondering what are you guys paying for your car if you are leasing or financing? I just want to get a ball park of what I will be expecting to pay. If Sal or others can chime in on this that would be great. I look forward to a few answers as a stepping stone.

Info:
1. Suppose $2000 down. 36 months lease. Best MoneyFactor? Monthly rate?
2. Financing - $5k down. 48 months. Best APR? Total per month?

Including Car Info:
AW w/ Coral Red
6MT
Sport Package
Comfort Access
Premium Package

I use Pentagon Federal. If you are not in the military, the membership to join is 20 bucks. After that, you can apply for the auto loan. 4.25% up to 72 months. I had mine higher a year ago. That's how I borrow.

true, but BMW's rate right now (APR) is 3.9% on e92's...for up to 60 months....just stop in and see Sal.

I visited about 5 dealerships, and Sal beat them on almost his first pitch to me. Give him a call or stop in and see him..it's def worth your time.

Hell, I drove an hour to go talk numbers and i put down a deposit that day...now June can't get here fast enough.

EDIT: n/m.. shoulda used the search button.

Don't forget your credit rating has as much to do with the rate as does anything else!

Your Residual will be 69% for 15K miles a year, 71% for 12K miles a year, and 72% for 10K miles driven a year. This is based on a 24 month lease. If you choose to do a 36 month lease your residuals will be 59% for 15K miles a year, 61% for 12K miles a year and 62% for 10K miles a year.

Your money factor will be .00245 and thats the same for 24 or 36 month lease. On a 24 month lease with a msrp of $45,475.00 with a $2,000.00 discount bringing the sale price to $43,475.00 and a $2,000.00 cap cost reduction your payment on a 24 month lease with 12K miles a year would be about $563.55. On a 36 month lease with a 12K miles a year and a $2,000.00 cap cost based on a selling price of $43,475.00 it would be $551.10

Goodluck. and call up sal to see what he says. He might give you a better discount than what my calculation was.

Wow, thanks for that info. Why is the residual so high?

Personally, I can't wait to see your car either!! You been trackin it?

[shong2]

The 3.9% APR rate is based on Financing which I think is pretty good already. Is the money factor dependent on credit? negotiable? Wondering if I am able to get the 335i coupe at invoice now...

Everything is based on Tier 1 credit (700+). Money factor and APR are non-negotiable, and no, you cant get a 335i at invoice. Allocations are slim at the moment.

Dude just order the car already. who in their right minds will give you a car at cost. Hey maybe you should have sal or the dealership give you the car at cost. And as a profit you should tell them "thank you" because a thank you will really help pay for their salaries....or taxes.....or overhead. Ever dealer is entitled to a profit and no one will work at getting you a car without making a dime on it. Yes there are factory holdbacks on the cars for the dealers. But you dont seem to understand that even if Sal made $3000.00 on a factory holdback he is not making $3000.00. First he makes a commission, then a portion of that is given to overhead an the remainder is profit which isnt that much.

[Sal@AUTOcouture]

i dont even get paid on holdback

1. Everything is based on Tier 1 credit - understandable.

2. Money factor is non-negotiable? If so, then why are people getting differents MF lower than the base .0023. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=133713 I even spoke with a sales person and he gave me a MF of .0022.

3. Allocations are slim at the moment - Is this based on your location or others?

4. I negotiated my car down to invoice + 200. Very tempting.



Thanks guys for your input. Looks like shopping is the way to go if you are willing to put up with some hassle.

the money factor wasnt negotiated...its the salesperson messing up. The 328i money factor was used for the 335 and I've noticed this a bunch of times already. Seems like some dealers are doing this to customers that arent actually buying that day so when they shop, no other dealer can match the price and when they return...they get the "oops we made a mistake" story and end up paying more regardless.

$200 over invoice is a nice deal (depending on what they're showing for invoice that is...)

[Sal@AUTOcouture]

The way to lower the money factor is the do multiple security deposits. Every security deposit lowers the money factor .00007

[shong2]

Gotcha. I may look into MSD since that is pretty interesting. Also 200 over invoice is nice. This was negotiated over email as well. Thanks for your input.
