I’m close to beating this. Was just offered a 330e demo for $564/month with only $2500 down

So close 20/20/20/20
Weren’t those in CA and replicable due to the enormous EV credit there?
not on the 330e 202020
I don’t think the $110 330e is replicable either. Due to winter purchase of RWD in OH and loaner status of “undersold” hybrid vehicle, this is a one of a kind …

The 330e demo deal (insofar as supply exists) is potentially replicable in any State that has had a brutal winter. Same incentives, ie, they are national. No state variations (except for sales tax and doc fees). Those EV deals were limited to CA and maybe one other state, WA?
ETA: none of this matters because this deal is the leading contender for deal of 2018. Replicability is irrelevant to that determination.
Oh, and that F-Type SVR deal might be the best deal of 2017.
I would definitely like to see a “deals of the year” category where every time somebody does an insane deal it gets listed - but only one can get listed per model - so everyone knows what the absolute best ever done is for that model…
I’m speechless. Congratulations!
I doubt this would ever be repeatable because it was most likely created based on a massive mistake from the dealer and a plea for exception from FS to make up for the error.
Major congrats!! The only problem you will face now is when this lease is over because you’ll most likely realize a major payment increase on the next one. That’s what I’m dealing with now since the CEL programs were so good when I got my M235i.

What’s a CEL program? 2nd time I’ve seen it mentioned in this thread.

My guess is Center Employee Lease - special leases for BMW dealer employees.
Edit: I was close.
Current Employee Lease program.
Google.

@28firefighter you are the winner! 
It’s “Center Employee Lease”. And when I got mine they had a 33/10k with a 66% RV. Now the 2 Series is 36/10k and a 53% RV at best!
The dealer was bought out and is looking to dump the existing inventory from the old dealership group. I can’t see this happening again after inventory is flipped.
What do I win? Please tell me its a car.

I hope it’s a $110/mo 3 series!!
I emailed two different people at the dealer, and didn’t receive a response from either. One was the general manager. Seems like that was definitely a one of a kind deal.
They are trying their hardest to forget that deal ever happened. I’m sure that had to hurt.

Is “CEL” program available to BMW & dealer employees all the time or limited time promotions?
It’s always there. For employees only. Not even family gets it unless the the employee is also on the lease. But the programs mirror what consumers get. Honestly the rare loaner deals over 17% off are much better than a CEL.
I might have a new one for everyone but it will look super weak after this deal!
