As I was speaking with the salesman, he said "If that's what you want, you should wait till mid October. The rates should go down for the 135i around that time. Because right now, (he looked in his book), you would be in the $475 range for 2 years - 10k. The rates for the 128i are around 1.6% and the 135i is around 2.7%. It's high right now because it's a first year production."

*Is that true? - and when should I purchase my car?*

I don't know how seriously he took me since I'm 25 (I look 19) and didn't really have a check in hand. I felt like the salesman was just going through the motions and not working with me. Rally dealerships are sorta high end. People on Long Island buy cars from them just to have the lil Rally Dealership badge on the back of their car.
I need some more info than this. Pm specifics to me, msrp of the car, tax % miles etc etc
