Gotcha, see how you came to that conclusion.My son wants the car because he drove my last car I told him yes I like that car and if i was in the market i would get it too.Yes I will seek deals for him tomorrow have a great 4 th
this is a new peice if information fir me so I wanted to inquire. trying to work with a broker ofc but went to a bmw dealership a while ago and on the lease worksheet they showed us a MF that yielded a 1% higher interest rate over base MF while aware that we already own a bmw. (for an i4)
is that essentially not allowed? if I had to negotiate a deal on an instock i4, could I directly tell them “that they are not allowed to raise the MF and they have to give me the base mf?”
sorry if it’s a redundant question, thanks 
They’re allowed to raise the money factor.

Sorry, but why isn’t he doing the research and legwork? No disrespect but you don’t appear to be the best educated ‘mentor’ for him on this topic…
What if with a bumped up MF, your monthly was lower compared to a deal with base MF but a smaller dealer discount? Would you still ask for base MF?
At the end of the day, it should not matter to you how dealers get to your targeted monthly.

Very true. The best is when a dealer tells you they’re selling you the car at MSRP while hiding a maxed out MF, which is the same as selling over MSRP. It’s like deer in headlights when you confront a salesman with that.
That’s why I tell folks to know their NUMBERS.
