a 2 year or 3 year?

If you mean monthly payment, two-year is more...

What do you guys think... I think $116, is pretty sweet for a price... or is the BMW on-line lease calculator just having issues ? And can I drive it back from perfomance center even though its a lease car ?

What do I think?

I think US car prices want to make me cry.

You couldn't lease a bicycle for that in the UK.

but you have to look at the trade in and down payment as well. it's over $19k .

Yes I have taken that into account. You would still get nowhere near that figure in the UK

rudy is the person to thank . btw, doesn't matter lease or finance, if you put the same down payment, monthly payment for two-year is always more than three-year.

With trade that will cost over $23k which works out to about $650/month for a 180 some horsepower car??? Give me a Nissan Altima 3.5 or an Infiniti G35 coupe instead.

How many years is the lease?

You shouldn't be paying MSRP. Shop around online. Maybe you'll get a better rate and purchase price.

If you sell the car for $18,000. That will pay for 36 months of $500/mo. payments. Plus you'll earn interest on the money during that time.

Good luck.

Yeah I was just using this as an estimate... I just thought if I can get that good of a deal with MSRP, think of it when I negotiate under MSRP... that would be pretty sweet !
