BMW New Car Programs (and Retired Loaners with < 5k miles) - UPDATED 5/8/2019

Gotcha, anyway to check what the lease credit for NY is?

BMWUSA.com

When I go to offers / specials and type in my Zip, then scroll down to the 340i x drive, it says $4000 lease credit. I assume that is NOT including loyalty correct?

If it includes loyalty it will say so.

Great thanks, I assume you mean in that fine print / detail section. Nothing about loyalty in there.

Does the residual for Loaner 3 series cars drop from 61 percent? Most dealers have quoted me 58, I have one quote a little over 56% due to the miles? I know cars OVER 5000 miles have a penalty, but I didn’t think the others did.

A post was merged into an existing topic: Off Topic Landfill

Residual is adjusted for cars under 5k as well. Use the formula to calculate the residual. I have this saved in my notes from another poster who posted this a while back.

(Mileage - 500) x .25 = $ residual penalty

(% Base residual x msrp) - $ residual penalty = $ adjusted residual value

$ adjusted residual value / msrp = % adjusted residual"

It hasn’t been released yet so IDK how you’d expect to see a program. It won’t be pretty when it gets here though, that I can promise you. You won’t see it till March/April at the earliest.

Loyalty is regional. 750 in my neck of the woods for a 3er…Dave has 1k

Yes, I think loyalty is regional and lease credits are uniform?

both are regional. Most of the regions are the same, but there’s some discrepancies in there here and there so always best to check.

Is the return of the MSD program nationwide?

Yes 1010101010.

I apologize in advance, but I couldn’t find the answer to this. Do the regional incentives vary based on the buyer’s location, or the dealer? For example, if I’m in Tennessee trying to buy a car in California, would I get the Tennessee region incentives or Cali?

Varies by manufacturer but for BMW it is based on dealer location.

Gotcha! I never would have realized that. Feel kinda bad for some dealers, it can be a significant handicap with out of state buyers.

I’m not going anywhere and this thread will continue to be updated on a monthly basis. :sunglasses:

I’m continuing to get and read (online) conflicting info on stacking Group Fleet discount with lease credit cash.

Does anyone have any additional details on this?

Some dealership don’t even seem to be aware fleet is back?

Corp Fleet is a specified discount off MSRP and it is different on every model. It cannot be combined with any Lease / APR, Conquest or Loyalty Credits. It is also NOT available to customers who currently own a BMW or have owned one in the last 12 months.

Dealerships do not have access to the list of approved companies either. Customers must apply for the Corporate Sales Program (CSP) claim certificate via their employee benefits web portal and present the certificate at time of purchase or factory order. They must also provide a recent paycheck stub from within the last 30 days along with a copy of their vehicle registration.

Now you can see why I haven’t been talking about it.

I believe you are wrong. For BMW, it is my understanding that it depends on the consumer’s zip code of registration.
