Too all those freaked out about current lease rates!!

Here's something someone wrote on another forum which puts it into perspective.

Wait about 6-8 months and the lease rates will plummet.

MANY people are awaiting this car and MANY people will blow 800/mo on it.

When the 335 vert came out people were happy to dish out 1100/mo for it.

BMW knows demand is high and hence decide to fuck us all over... it's business and it sucks!

That's what it boils down to! Just be patient and wait a bit longer. You've waited so long already anyway right? Plus this way you'll get to read all the feedback from members here who take delivery early and better make your decision on options etc.. :thumbup:

With the way the economy is heading you would think financing rates would be relatively low. I know this car is new and limited but when my 2004 VW R32 was purchased I got 3.2% financing for 60 mths. That car was more limited than a 1 series. I really hope to get financing between 5%-6% otherwise I may back out of the deal. The one series is the car I want but do I really need it? There are so many manufacturers giving deals right now. The G37 is looking better and better everyday. Or maybe a GTI. I don't wanna do it but these numbers seem perposterous!

FYI Q&A session with Car & Driver Editor Csaba Csere:

BMW CCA: "Infiniti G35, Lexus IS 350, Audi A4, or BWM 335i?"
Csere: "The best car in the bunch is the 335i, but the G35 is the best value"
Roundel, June 2007

Fast forward to the current year's G37 and new 135i and most likely little has changed...

Jack, possibly, but testing doesn't take financing and lease rates into account, that I've ever seen...
