Do you have the breakdown of incentives
7500 - Lease Credit (federal tax credit)
3000- Loyalty
1500- Colorado EV.
Congratulations, enjoy the car!
The Money Factor is significantly marked up from the base rate. However, considering the effects of inventory shortage on the car market, this is still a great low-cost lease.
Very cool, now that they are discontinuing them Iām hoping thereās other great deals that pop up.

For sure, I think it was their way of making up some of the discount on the MSRP. At the end of the day the markup resulted in less than $600 of price difference, so it wasnt worth haggling over.

Great deal. Iām surprised you were able to get such a nice discount on an in-stock car with BMW discontinuing the i3. I think the true discount is probably masked by rebates and the money factor mark-up, but still a nice payment on a very enjoyable car. Thereās definitely still demand out there. Enjoy!

Yes, I agree. I have had half a dozen of these cars and intended to get another one a few months ago as a commuter. In the end, I switched to a Bolt (because I am a complete bottom feeder and the cost was so much less) but the i3 is a more eccentric looking car (and eccentric is goodš)

Thanks for the comment! I am curious what you mean by ātrue discount is masked by the rebates/money factor markup.ā The money factor markup was only about $550, and the MSRP discount was 10.8% before rebates.
In that case thatās an amazing discount especially in this market! I wasnāt sure if the dealer was including the Colorado state rebate.

Thank you.
After reading this thread I checked my local dealer and found this mind boggling $60k i3 on their lot. I just donāt understand how or why a $60k i3 exists. Who would pay that money for this car??? I wonder if I wait long enough theyāll get desperate enough to cut a deal

Thatās an amazing build. Itās an i3s with Range Extender thatās essentially fully-loaded.
Nobody pays sticker for these cars. Anybody buying typically gets a $10,000-$11,000 rebate plus a $7,500 tax credit and potentially also a loyalty incentive and dealer discount. Most people lease, and even with a modest discount itās not totally unreasonable. Granted most people would get a Tesla at MSRP since with loyalty it would be around $549-$599/month to lease, but with the i3 being discontinued builds like this tend to go pretty quickly lately with dealers that arenāt doing insane markups.
