So here is what I’ve negotiated. May sign tonight. Let me know what you think.
MSRP 93K
Selling Price 68K (including $2,000 Loyalty)
$820 a month
24 month lease
60% Residual
$3100 Up Front Including Taxes
Looks like it would be $624 on a 36 Month. Any suggestions?
So $19.6k on 2 years or $2,800 extra for the entire 3rd year?
I’d take 3 years and throw it on SAL for the 3rd year, at $624 you’ll get a taker. Wouldn’t do MSDs if that was the plan though, would make finding a taker for the swap harder.
Didn’t know the money factor went down. I emailed the dealer asking for an adjustment. Let’s see what they come back with.
No MSD’s. What’s a SAL?
Also, I’m aiming for 24 months only because that’s when my other lease comes out of contract. I want to have a little more purchasing power year two. Never keep a car beyond that to be honest.
Meaning, sell it back to the dealer or private party at that point? Another question I was thinking of: since they’re lowering the value of the car pretty substantially; what are the chances of the car being above value at the end of year 2?
I would do the 36 month like the other guy is suggesting, then put it on swapalease.com, you could probably even make 2-3k as a down payment for the new lessee.
edit: how come it was 624 earlier for a 36 month but now 730?
I didn’t caculate the reduction in the residual for the 36 month. That was my fault. It’s 730 on the 36 and 760 on the 24- 3K down. What do you guys think?
ah makes sense, I mean it’s honestly up to you being a $30 a month difference you could go both ways, no idea on judging the deal itself I’m sure somebody else will chime in on that but I still think somebody might bite on swapalease in the 3rd year.
IMHO you should be getting a good deal more of a discount on a loaner. If this was a new unit then 24-25% would be a good discount and I would say pull the trigger.
Given it is a demo I think you should be closer to 30%. I was able to pick up a demo 740I for 35% in April. I have seen others get demo’s in the 29-30% discount range on 740i’s.
