My lease ends July 2018, do you think 2019 3 series will be out by then?

I would just buy something in good condition for cheap (couple thousand $) to drive around until the 3 series comes out. then sell it. if you buy the right car you will be able to sell it for the same price you originally purchased it easily.

In the U. S. BMWFS will let you extend your lease by up to six months to wait for a new model about to come out.

Really? Hmm. Mine is up in May of 2018. I'm in the boat: do I buy my car or get a new lease.

I believe they will do that only if you have ordered and are waiting for a new BMW. So the key will be whether you're able to order a MY19 when your lease expires.

The 2012 F30 came out January 2012 with the F30 xDrive as a 2013 model. It is hard to say but if you order a 2019, BMW will provide a 6 month extension on the lease if you have a BMW on order! It will be close, good luck!
