I don’t have loyalty just corporate so that’s what it is I believe. I sent them the info before they sent me the sheet so it should be on there. I assumed that was it because I didn’t see it anywhere else.
The corp rebate almost always matches loyalty’s cash value, so yes, it’s $1,500.

If you can live with an Orange on Black Gran Coupe demo, we can do this, hah. This is my only real shot at saving you $$$, and obviously I don’t expect you to want this.
I’ll pass…for now. Who knows I may get desperate. I love my Honda but it’s time…
You know my search would have ended a long time ago if I could have just went with a GC. The only thing I can’t get over is the rear. The coupe is so smooth.
For sure. So by that logic people should never go on vacation, have a wedding or pay for any kind of insurance unless they can guarantee they will use it.

Perhaps the wrong context but the message remains the same.

I spoke with him a little while ago. He was a little confusing but he basically said if I wanted to do fees plus first month then my payment would go up. He said he didn’t have it in as a down payment. He said overall whatever I write a check for just goes toward cap cost reduction. It doesn’t go toward just fees or a down payment.
Good news is he said this was a great lease. Bad news is I’m back to square one.
not to keep hashing up this topic.
For some- cash flow is just as important in their financial forecasting/planning as “profit”.
And the reality is we should all be driving 15 year old Honda’s and when we die, our heirs will most likely use the money to buy the car you always wanted. 
As a business owner; I own, finance and lease my equipment. Some of it new and some of it used. To me the bottom line is, some have worked out great for me, some have not. I have some used equipment and some new equipment that is the bane of my existence. I am far from an expert business owner like Elon or Bezos, I just try to learn from my mistakes and move on.
With that said, I do enjoy reading and getting suggestions and thoughts from all of you because the way I am looking at things might be skewed and incorrect. It has made me look at other better financial choices than what my wife originally wanted in her next vehicle.

Just curious; why take this over the 330xi which leases regularly for about half of the price, has the same interior/engine/transmission ? Seems like a bit of a crazy thing to do…
I think @TRN95 's bigger issue was he was only looking in Indiana for stock. There was a whopping 1 430 xi in the entire state of Indiana, and like five 330 xi. He just won’t get the great lease deals we see on the coasts since the dealers aren’t playing on volume.
His better bet is to go through a broker that can ship a car to his house… should save him a ton instead of dealing with the Fort Wayne, IN BMW.
I spoke on this a couple replies back. They are different cars. Can’t help that I like the 4 series more. I’ve tried to check out the 3 series. Same on the inside yes but very different from the 4 series on the outside.
The quotes from brokers are about the same as this deal once I gained clarification on the cap cost reduction. I’ve been trying to look at other BMW’s to see if there is something I like. No luck yet.

Maybe you just buy that 430 (edit sorry I had typed 440 on accident) xi then? Finance from a CU and enjoy the car before lake effect snow blows in and you can’t drive for 3 months?
I saw 430, and my first thought was $800 with d/offs due. If you are ok with that, find it. I’m like everyone else that’s been on here for awhile, the old numbers sound amazing, but not now, maybe not ever with the sv push.
Ev not sv,…
Go get a hyper-cheap BMW iX then
These captive financing companies only have so much lending capital… they’re pushing it all toward EV.
I think I would be more comfortable at $750/month with drive offs. After I found out finance guy was playing around I told him I would take it home for that amount.
Not buying anything. I’ll get a deal eventually. It may not be what the LH pro’s used to see but I just need to be patient. I still have an option to extend my lease for a year. I just didn’t want to miss any December deals, especially for a car that’s been sitting for a while.
