Dumb lease question
Hey guys - now that the paperwork time is near, had a dumb leasing related question. I think I know the answer but would like to confirm:
- if I take European delivery of the car, the MSRP used for calculating lease residual is the MSRP as if the car was bought in U.S., Right? For example my car's MSRP is about $127K if I took original delivery in US. But because of ED, my pre discounted sticker price is about $120k. Can you please confirm? - how soon can I lock in my rates? March rates look really good but my delivery is not scheduled until May 22 in Munich. Thanks guys

If you don't yet have an approval from BMWFS (meaning the dealership has not yet submitted your credit app), then have them submit it the last week of March to lock it the March rates in case the May rates are not as good. In any case, once you sign the lease, it can't be changed. Last edited by Ninong; 03-19-2015 at 11:36 PM.. |

Wow! You're getting caramel with walnut honey trim? That's definitely "individual" on an M5. Was it very difficult to get them to accept your request, considering those are 7-series colors?
Post pics once you get it. |

It took a while for BMWNA to approve it. They had initially turned it down but after a couple more tries, they accepted the requested it. Will def post pics once I get the car. Can't wait to get behind the wheel of this thing.

I'll call my dealer to lock the March rates. That's really all I care about. I can sign the lease in May as long as I get the March residuals and rates. Thanks again!

I've got nothing to add but I also am looking forward to how this build will turn out.
I've never seen Moonstone in person and with the Caramel Leather and Walnut Honey Trim yours will definitely be one of a kind.

I will be posting pictures when I get the car. Only regret is that I will only have the car for a day and a half in Europe before its sent back and then the long wait.

I checked with my CA. He said that we can lock in programs for 60 days from the end of program. Therefore, March programs can be locked in for delivery 60 days from March 31st - to end of May :-)
Needless to say, I locked in my program.

I'm hoping April rates will be better. If not, I can get March rates in April. I should be picking up my car in 2-3 weeks. That's if pirates don't take over the ship going through the Panama canal.
