Good deal?
I am looking to lease a 335 xDrive with the following options:
Msport Premium package BMW Assist BMW Apps M sport brakes M adaptive suspension with 18" A/S Wheels would be $815 tax in per month with 19" summer wheels would be 836 tax in per month over a 48 month lease. This works out to be about a 7% off of MSRP. I am thinking to opt for the 19" wheel setup. The car right now has the 18" installed, but the dealer is willing to swap out the 18 with another car's 19"(403M) wheel. They will charge me $500 for the wheels and $250 for the labour to do the swap. Is it true that because the car originally came out of the factory with the 18" all season tire that the speed limit increase is not included, and its capped at 130 instead of 155? |

Are you a repeat BMWFS customer? Is your car part of a Fleet arrangement (car allowance or corp purchase), etc.

48 months, 2.9% rate with a 47% residual. the MSRP was $63,749 and the final negotiated price was 7%, so around 59,289. Zero down payment. The upfront payments are the usual suspects, 1st month payment and security deposit. Freight/PDI, Admin fee, tires. The only fee's i don't like are the $504 listed as other dealer options, which I assume is the Nitrogen fee's and fuel as $95. I did have a lease with BMW before, but not with this dealer or SA, and it is not part of a fleet arrangement. |

Your payment will depend on which province you are in. Keep that in mind...

I think the most important is how the service from the sales person ,go through the details, test drive , showing the vehicle in detail and for sure how much off ! Since u have 7% off , not too bad , no matter how much off , someone will have a better deal than u , cause the cost to each dealer is the same,and no dealer will sold a car below cost, unless they need to cleanout the old stockers (ex. u buying a 2012 vehicle in 2013 )or a demo. As long as u happy with the price ,then is ok ! The sales also need to earn a living too.
I think you got a fair deal as long as the sales person followup the whole process with manner. By the way, good choice!!! |

So I ended up pulling the trigger on the 2013 EBII 335 xDrive with the following packages: MSport Premium M-Brakes M Adaptive Suspension 19" perf tires/wheels BMW assist BMW apps The final price I got was $4700 off MSRP or roughly 7.3% off. the monthly lease payment worked out to be $819/mth tax included over 48 months. I will be picking up the car in 2 weeks, now its time to start shopping for mods and accessories. lol It'll be interesting to see how different(better or worse) the F30 is compared to my old car. I had a 2009 335i in Le Mans Blue. The F30 will be missing some power for sure, as I had the JB4 on the E90. My sister took the buyback option and has my old E90, so I'll still have access to it for some direct comparisons. BTW - what did people do with their tints? Right now I am thinking having a 35% tint up front, and 20% in the back. Would it look 'cleaner' if the tints were all the same? I had 35% all around in the E90, and thought it was a little light. |

I really wanted the BMW Assist option, I had it on my last e90, and just the Google Maps feature pays for itself over time. It just makes the car that much more 'smarter'. |

For this new lease, I really wanted to make myself like the S4, and was leaning towards the S4. For no other reason than it'll be more of a change from the 2009 E90. The S4 is really a beautiful car and super fast, no doubt about it, awesome car. But I just couldn't get the good customer service from them. I dealt with 2 SA's and neither one was willing to negotiate any discounts and they didn't follow up when they said they would. They just gave me a vibe that they don't really need my business. So its back to the BMW world for another 4 years. The JB4 was awesome in the E90, I got it after 1 year of owning the car. While the 335i was fast already, with the JB4, it just provides that extra kick. I also had the BMW performance exhaust and Dual cone intake installed on the E90, so the car sounded amazing as well. I'll probably wait a year on the F30 before getting the JB4, I think its only the stage 1 that is available on the F30 anyways. I'll wait till the stage 2 plug and play is out and all the bugs have been ironed out. But I do suggest looking into the JB4 or similar chip when they are available for the F30. My experience with them has been trouble free, and the installation was effortless(less than 30 mins). I leave it on map '0' when I take the car to the dealer for servicing, and they don't bat an eye. I only take it out, if I am going in for warranty related work or ECU servicing. |

Can you guys tell me where you got your deals and who you dealt with. I'm in Ottawa and my current SA is quoting me roughly $780 for a 328xi (Executive and Premium package, ehanced bluetooth). 48 mth lease, 24k, zero down. Obviously not even close to the deal you guys got. I don't mind going to Toronto as I have done that before.

It was at BMW Toronto. I am picking up the car this Sat., lets see how it goes.
Don't you have a F30 already? Just my luck...I committed to the F30, then Audi lowered their lease rate on the S4 in May. I guess Audi and BMW are really going head to head this year. The rates on the S4 was lowered to 2.9% for 48 months in May. That probably would've made it a more difficult decision. The monthly lease payment would be in the same neighborhood, and the S4 has the LSD, plus the B&O sound. |

that's interesting on the S4 rate.
Would you know any factory cash rebate incentive for May ? I was just thinking of looking into a 2014 S4 as a winter car, if there is a good deal going on for the 2013, then I may consider this instead and save a few bucks. thanks Quote:

The best deal would be the IS350, the lease rate is 1.3% with $3000 factory rebate. Guess they are trying hard to clear their remaining 13 models. |
