I’m located in Bellmore, NY. Pick up only.
I spoke with BMW financial services. Since this was a one-pay lease (I paid all the lease payments in one shot up front) whoever assumes the lease will have absolutely NO MONTHLY PAYMENTS. I’ve done the math with how much I paid for it for the length of the term. It breaks down to only $7/day.
If anyone is interested in assuming the lease, the process takes ~3 weeks from start to finish and will cost $1498 including everything. This amount will be paid to me directly (or $500 to BMW FS for the transfer and the remainder to me for the time left on the vehicle).
In sum, TAKE OVER THIS LEASE FOR $7/DAY. Anyone who is interested, PM me. Thank you!
If I didn’t already have too many cars, I would take this in a second. I’ve had four of these cars in the past and have loved them all. At $1498 for eight months use, the effective cost is about $187 a month. For someone in a low power cost area, the savings on gasoline would make this practically free.
$350 disposable fee if you don’t buy the car (that’s hilarious) or lease another Bmw. Also with the plastic panels on these things small dings turn into serious $ at turn in. They don’t go by the return rules of the regular bmws.
actually the plastic panels are a plus. they aren’t as susceptible to door dings as metal panels. You can search videos on this and other i3 owners will vouch to this.
“300 bucks for rear bumper and 600$ for front.”
I know the body panels of the i3 is fiberglass but i thought the bumpers are same plastic material as the rest of BMW. If that’s the case why would it be any more expensive than regular BMWs?
Exactly. The purpose of the thermoplastic exterior (which is innovative, all other BMW’s and most other cars for that matter have a steel exterior which is easier to damage) is that it makes the car less susceptible to dents and door dings. Just find a good dealer to inspect it, turning in an i3 should be an easy process.
Looking at the pics in the other post it looks like some sort of foam that seems to deform easily and doesn’t pop back out, where a regular car is just hard plastic bumper covers.
Can’t find any info on this anywhere…but check out what BMW says about it:
“The BMW i3 is the first BMW ever, in which the entire outer skin is made of plastic. Only the roof is made of recycled CFRP. The parts are by half lighter than steel and at the same time a corrosion-free surface protection, which can be produced energy-saving. The material is also insensitive to minor damage. 25 percent of the materials used for the thermoplastic outer parts are either recycled or made from renewable resources.” https://www.bmwgroup-plants.com/en/production/bmw-i.html
This is a great car. Whoever takes the lease over will enjoy it immensely. Also a perfect timeframe since at the end of the eight months you’ll want to upgrade to a model with more electric range, but the 2017 already has a 50% bigger battery than the original model so it should be perfectly adequate especially during the summer months when electric range will be well over 100 miles.
