did i get ripped?

natedogg · 04-03-2007, 10:58 AM

am i getting a okay deal, i already leased my 325i since october, my lease payment is 520 for 15,000 miles a year, with sport and premium and chrome rims and metallic paint. for 3 years

but also there was 4,000 down including all the fees etc...

is that an okay price?

the car was worth right around 40,000

BigDog · 04-03-2007, 11:01 AM

40k for a 325i is a lot.... esp since the 328s were starting to come down the pipe then

longtran · 04-03-2007, 11:02 AM

i know of someone that got a 335 lease for $4xx.

new2the3 · 04-03-2007, 11:35 AM

when you factor in your downpayment, it comes out to the same that I pay for my 330i with a 43k sticker. 12k/yr though. I would say you didn't get ripped but you got no where near a good deal.

NYBMW335 · 04-03-2007, 12:16 PM

i am leasing mine for $489 with $2500 down

But i am only allowed 12000 miles a year!!

DanMardik · 04-03-2007, 12:21 PM

I'm leasing my 335 for $599 with $0 down, Just $1000 in driveoffs. 12k miles a year.

Revlis · 04-03-2007, 12:23 PM

Sounds like it's time to upgrade to a 328 or 335, if your just going from lease to lease they will probably be glad to have ya!

LEDZEP · 04-03-2007, 01:06 PM

I'm leasing my M6 for $99 a month, nothing down. Unlimited miles.

You got screwed.

Why are you asking? The deal is done. You should question these things BEFORE you sign papers and exchange money. It's up to you whether you got a good deal.

canucklion · 04-03-2007, 01:42 PM

why are you worrying about it 6 months after signing on the dotted line? This question should've been asked before you signed the lease contract, what's the point of finding out "is this a good deal?" now? you're just giving yourself more head + heart-ache

That is not a good deal! Lucky you were not playing deal or no deal!

BMW F22 · 04-03-2007, 01:49 PM

I think the chrome rims is where you got charged the fortune.

$40k is way high for a 325 I only paid $41k for my 330i with premiun and Sport in May 05.

I hope he at least had the good taste to choose the kind that keep spinning after you come to a stop. Those are pure class!

Your pretty f'n funny Led...

SteveMD · 04-03-2007, 05:25 PM

Not a good deal at all. Considering that you put about $2500 as a capital cost reduction, you were well and truly ripped (as you put it).

I'm not going to run the numbers but with that much down, you should be around $400-$430 per month.

For comparison, my 330 with zero down and only the usual up front charges was $494 plus tax. Sticker was $44K+

darkcloud · 04-03-2007, 05:27 PM

No worries, I kinda thought the same thing after I got my ride in August 06. I picked up a 325i no packages and a few add ons for $440/mo, 12k yr., 36 mo, and $2500 in tax, title and stuff. Sure, maybe I could have closed the gap to get it a little closer to $400 a month payment. But in the end I wasn't going to save that much over the 3 years by doing so.

I also look at it this way. My salesman may have got me a little on this car due to inexperience on my part, but I'm going to get him a lot better when it comes time to get into a 335i or maybe a ///M with my 3 years of reading this board and other BMW forums.
