.9% bmw financing 60months

Wondering whats everyone's interest rates on their 1er. Im at 4.9%

.9% interest man I guess i was under a rock for this one. At first I was like oh for the first year. No no no its for 60months. That's an amazing deal I was considering trading the 1er in for a 3series but dammit I love the 135 so much. If only they offered me this when i got the 135. BMW must be really trying to move those older model 3, 4, 5 series. If i could get .9% interest m3 here I come.

MB sales are up probably because of their all new C-class and the fact that the new 7 series is on the horizon so the current 7 series is getting fazed out with less sales.

Also, the 0.9% financing does not apply to M3 and 1 series for now but it sure makes the 335i tempting...:roundel:

remember often sales go up after having a poor year the previous one (don't remember MB's results from last year though so could be off).

We all could only wish for .9 on a 1/m3 but the 335 is a tough call at that rate!

I got 4.25% through PenFed. That was by far the best rate I could get at the time of purchase, and I have perfect credit.

While 0.9% would have been nice, there is no way it would have been enough to make up the difference in price between the 135i and the M3. The M3 is about $20K more then an equally equipped 135i. Which means you'd have to be paying ~28% interest on the 135i vs 0.9% on the M3 for them to have the same monthly payment. Heck the difference between 4.25% and 0.9% would barely be enough to make up the difference between a 135i and a 335i, let alone anything with an M badge.

this just solidifies that the 1 was never meant to be a cheaper 3 (especially in the case of the 135i) but instead an enthusiast car meant to satisfy those looking for a lighter car, with bigger breaks, and a "limited-slip".

Dealership I was at yesterday said the .9 did include the M3. It was available on all models except 1's and the X6.

the other day when i found out about my original MY08 choice actually being used by the dealer i realized the 0.9% apr deal was going on and looked up numbers just for fun and in case i wouldn't find another suitable car. as it turns out, if you count this deal, a similarly equipped 335i coupe would only be 20 bucks more a month! now that's tempting.. but i found an actual new 1er and i'm happym this car is more fun
