Im going to the dealer very soon and was just curious what other members consider a "don't think twice about it" discount on a 07 550i at this time of year right before the face lift. Im in the S. Florida area and the competition is good.

Hmmm, so which direction are you headed? Sell the current '07 530i and go another '07 530i at a fantastic MF or go for the '06 550i? It would seem that you will not be remaining in your current 530i. I guess you already know that the MF factor being offered is for the '06 525i and 530i and not 550i?

Try to speak with the Fleet Manager. You'll usually do better with him/her than any Salesman.
Will try... I've been with the salesman for 3 cars now.. have u seen the Long Wheelbase 5 in China?!?!
I believe they the LWB has the new interior door panel changes!!!

I think I'm crap out of luck on this question, but is there anything I can do with regards to getting a lower rate? Since I was literally part of the first '07 orders placed, the MF was .00250. I put $0 down and incorporated my taxes into my monthly payment, as I always do. I am paying $884/month and I'd have to believe that with a rate of .00050, I'd be looking at $650/month, if not less. That's a pretty serious difference and makes me want to puke, just thinking about it.

There are only two options that I know of.
1. Buy out the lease and sell the car.
2. Find someone to take over your lease.
Other than that, I highly doubt that BMWFS will renegotiate your lease.

unfortunately, with a lease there are very few "pretty" options...and they get much uglier the less you fork out on the down payment. more car for less payment almost always equals no equity during the entire lease
