Lease & ED Question ...
Appologies for noobie question but here goes:
If you lease and are doing ED, the lease term starts when you pick up the car at the Welt, correct? Which means you are essentially paying a lease payment even during the time the car is in transit to the US, which can be up to 6 weeks? SO basically you pay for about a month of the lease term without actually having the car with you? Trying to decide whether to lease or purchase... Wondering what the breakdown of users here that did ED are leasing vs purchasing. Might be an interesting poll. Thanks in advance! f. Last edited by frisky; 06-22-2014 at 12:24 PM.. |

You sign the financial paperwork about 10-14 days before you leave for Germany. That's when you make the first payment. BMW makes the second payment. BUT...they increase the MF (Money Factor) by .0003. So that pretty much nulifies that 2nd payment they pick up.

Aww ok does that .0003 applies to the whole term or just the month? P.S. I have never leased a car before and this will be my first with the ED

Whole term. The MF is used to calculate the monthly payment for the life of the lease.
If you've never leased, def do your research. BMW's lease very well...IF you know what you're doing.

looks like you're in good hands and will be doing exactly what I just did with David and the Steve Thomas team - i just got back from taking re-delivery at NorthWest BMW (Baltimore) on Saturday!!!
i did ED mid April, car was paid for (lease) a week or so before. dropped off at Munich Airport end of April (4/29). as others have mentioned the MF on ED is calculated differently and BMW pays the second payment as part of the program. i just made my third payment. its kind of a no brainer esp. with solid residuals...IMHO BMW estimates 8-10 weeks for redelivery - so be patient if it works out to be in that time frame. its all trackable (except for the details at US customs which can be a drag) so you can manage your expectations. i didn't. david is seriously awesome - so you're in really good hands. good luck! a
