X5 Leasing

[Monty04]

The lease on my 2005 X5 expires in mid-December and I'm about to order a 2008 X5 to replace it. I was just wondering if anyone has leased from BMW Financial Services recently? If so, what are they quoting for a money factor and for the residual value percentage?

Thank you for the link to this very valuable information! I would still be interested, though, in what BMW Financial Services is quoting if anyone has that recent information.

Mea culpa! I just re-read the link you posted and that was BMW Financial Services. My apologies for my senior moment!

Just a short question about leasing in the USA.

I followed up the link to bimmerfest and was wondering about the base rates (0,00275 of MSRP). That would mean you pay around 200$ per month for a 4.8i X5 ?? Is that including down payment requirements ?

For example a 4.8i for about 110.000 USD (that is the price in Germany)
will go for 2200 USD per month with no down payment in leasing and the interest quote for financing is 8% per year !!!!

If the 200 bucks per month are correct, I will move to the states
thats great all about !!!

So long

Not quite.....here are the formulas that were listed at the bottom of the bimmerfest post:

(Cap Cost – Residual Value) / Term = Depreciation
(Cap Cost + Residual Value) X Money Factor = Interest
Depreciation + Interest = Base Monthly Payment

36 Month – Residual 58% of MSRP – .00275 Base Rate


So assuming a price of $80000 for a 4.8i and you don't pay any down payment the monthly payments would be about $1280 plus tax.

.00275 is the MF money factor. MF is the rental fee for amount of time you lease. you multiply 2400 x .00275 = 6.6% rental fee . If you check BMW's web site under shopping lease deals X5's are leasing for about $717 a month plus tax $2500 down for 36 month 10K miles a year aprox with sport and prem pack.
