Quick E70 4.8i Lease survey

[StanF18]

For those of you leasing the E70 4.8i in the US, I was very curious what your TOTAL monthly payment is (including taxes and fees).

Please also state the agreed upon sale price of the vehicle, and the lease terms (allowed mileage, # of months, interest, etc.) Thanks a bunch.

I just got a deal at $500 over invoice ($180 training fee included in the invoice price) which with a $625 non-negotiable bank fee came to like $62,135.

Here are the details:

4.8i; Space gray; beige

Heated
Premium
Sport
20's
Tech
SAT
Rear Climate

MSRP $66,170
"Selling" $62,135 which is $500 over invoiced cost (which included the $180 training fee) plus a $625 bank fee that gets added to the cap cost that they wouldn't move on which is why I negotiated harder for the $500 over invoice. I also had an issue with the $180 training fee but I caved on that as it was on the invoice.

36mos, 10K miles/year
$885/mo (incl 6% sales tax) with $1400 out of pocket.
0.00225 money factor
61% residual.

I think I did OK. I regret not keeping the comfort seats as part of my order. I'll live though.

Off the top of my head, 2007 X5 4.8 MSRP was right under 78K. No down, 36 month, 15K/yr. Pay 1358/mo

How does your X5 cost so much when it doesn't even have Nappa leather?

I bought my 4.8, sorry to interrupt the thread.

StanF18,

There are too many variables that make comparing lease payments impossible. If you run the math on the deals above, you'll get different monthly payments - probably as a result of taxes, fees, and positive/neg. equity being rolled into the deal. Plus sales tax treatment varies by state and can significantly affect the payment. If you're leasing through BMWFS (which you should, they heavily subsidize the residual values), the best advice is to get the vehicle price as low as possible and make sure they don't mark up the money factor. BMWFS lease terms are widely available on the internet. The rest is just math, so don't get too worked up about comparing payments with others.

FWIW, my montly payment is $999 for 30mos/15Kmis on a $75K vehicle (sticker).
