Same.
No msd and electric numb steering, etc. is pushing me out
Iām paying 648 for a 70k 535 with msd and for the G30 Iām looking at nearly 800. Quite upset that Bmw ended this.
@Phantomcypher youāre paying $445 for a 550i?
When was that deal done? Somehow i missed this, thatās a crazy price!
June 2015 so Iām at the end of my lease in a month 
@Phantomcypher thatās one hell of a score for a 550i.
You getting another BMW before the MSD program ends?
I donāt know if I want another BMW after leasing 6 of them straight in the last 4 years.
Suggestions on one?
So far I have leased:
1 series
M6
X5M
335i GT
550i GT
i3
@Phantomcypher
I hear you on wanting something else after 6 BMWs.
I donāt know how well they lease but Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT is a really fun car thatās also practical.
Then again, you already had an X5Mā¦hmmmā¦tough oneā¦
Maybe itās because Iām young, but after driving my 550i for the last few months, weather or not the deals are still good or not, I will likely be getting another one because I have fallen in love with the car.
The incoming 2018 M550 Xi is a beast, BTW!
Easy peasy. i8 next. 20 chars
i8 ā¦ 20 chars
Honest question. How is BMW going to compete with no MSDs? As I understand, the lack of MSDs is going to raise the monthly of BMW leases by at least 10-15%. So while you can lease a solid MB or Lexus for $500/month, that MSRP BMW will be roughly $75 more a month. Seems to make no sense to me.
How many customers really take advantage of the MSDs? Maybe 5% or less of their customers, if that? Even some folks on here donāt do it for some reason.
I agree with @Jon, most people donāt know about MSDs, the dealerships donāt really promote it and most sales people donāt even know what it is
So predictable, guys. Alfa Quadrifoglio is the way to go for Phantom

I think itās pretty clear - lower MF to start with. Very small % uses MSD anyway. My friend at a major MB dealer just doesnāt do MSD.
