Dealers are now ready to offer/sell leases on the 1er?
I've been working on a lease with three different dealers for weeks, and all of them said they'd get back to me when they had hard numbers. Sounds like I've been forgotten... |

I was quoted MF .003. I complained and moaned, and they offered $500 off MSRP.
I've decided to finance instead. The car will hold its value well, IMO, and finance payment is about the same as lease payment. I doubt there will be any trouble selling in 3 yrs, so I think finace will come out ahead, actually. |

I really can't believe you guys are still trying to lease it. The car will hold its value, besides the 335i goes for around $540 which is a more expensive car than the 135i and yet has a lower payment. The 135i is a great car to own rather than rent IMO.

My 335 was $46k. I paid $1,500 drive off and $650/mo for 15k miles, 36 months. Meaning, the 135 is not a good car to lease. Not yet at least.

Assuming standard rates on a 135i... MSRP $36,175 (heated seats, non-metalic paint) $3,000 down at drive-off 15,000 miles a year 24 months = $628 36 months = $618 39 months = $612 all of those amounts include 7.75% sales tax |

My lease deal is looking around $714 on my $43795 1er including my 6% sales tax and nothing out of pocket. 10K miles per year. Money down on a lease is a big risk for a loss guys in the event you total it, etc. BTW, my SA keeps babbling about the car being worth so much more than other cars in 3 years...blah blah blah. Honestly, I hear him talking but can't really picture it being that special. Chances are BMW will put an LSD in, make changes, and the next years model will perhaps be more desirable. Just because it is 1st, doesn't make it the best all the time. I'll play the gamble and say it's not going to be that special in 3 years to net me any kind of great value versus lease in the long run. |

I understand your point about the 135i not being a big deal in 3 years, could possibly happen but it’s still a BMW. And according to your optioned price tag you will be around ~$20K from owning the car in 3 years which I believe would sell for at least $25K and if you don’t believe me check the numbers on a used 330ci and you will see what I mean. Besides, having a great performing car is something, but having a connection with the car is something else. And if history could teach us anything is that the older e30, e36, e46 M3s are preferred to own over the all new mighty big M3 and most of us seek the 135i cuz of its resemblance to the e30, e36 M3s. So what’s to say there will be a new 1er coupe to begin with? Maybe a hatch again for Europe (just cuz of the 4 door) but might not be another coupe it all depends on the sales right? And if there is it will have more power but it will be bigger I assure you that. IMO I believe to own the car especially if it is a special car as the 135i, and if after owning it for 3+ years you feel that there is another car that you will enjoy you could always trade in. |
