My Ride: 2006 BMW 550i "Ben Hogan's 5 Iron"
SilverGrey/Black Sport, L7, NAV, CW, AS, Split FR
2003 Audi A4 3.0 CVT "Part of the Moniker"
Silver/Ebony, Prem, CW, Star 17s
It was worth it to me:
1-I am leasing, I signed my lease agreement 3 days before I picked up my car and it took 4 weeks for the car to be delivered to me in the US, so in reality I only paid for 1 month without the use of the car
2-Assuming that I could get $1500 over invoice on a US delivery car, I saved $3665 on the price, but I could not find a dealer willing to give me $1500 over invoice on a US car with exactly the same equipment/color I wanted. The best I found on a 545 was $2000 off MSRP, so in reality I saved $5465.00 on the car
3-The lease is based on my ED purchase price of $53,925, but the residual is based on US MSRP of $61,390. Big savings on monthly payment, lease payment on US price discounted car would be $858.46 vs $682.58 I am paying on mine.
4-I did not spend that much on the trip, but even if I had spent 100% of what I saved on the trip , it was worth it, it was a great vacation and great experience, can't wait to do it again.
Wow,
Thats looks like a great deal. $680 a month. Was it tough getting attractive financing with the dealer? How much down and did you pay the going money rate on the 545i?
