I am picking up an ED 545 at the end of April. My dealer told me there is no way to lock in or to guarantee the lease deal (residual and money factor) until we go to contract (April 15th).
Do any of you know if this is correct? Is there a way to lock in a lease deal?
Any insight into coming changes in BMWFS lease rates for the 545 in the next couple of months? Do they change lease terms weekly, monthly, quarterly?
Right now my deal is based on a 60% residual with a .0016 lease factor, which seems fairly aggressive to me.
Thanks.

Yes you can. I understand its 60 days lock. If your dealer is un willing to do so then cancel your order w/ him and goto another dealer w/ your production number and BTW, I never told you this.

I've included an excel spreadsheet with the rates from Nov. 04 for you to compare.

Agreed....there is a 60 day lock that protects you from an increase....if your sales rep looks out for you and rates drop, they will cover you as well...happened to me and I got benefit opf deal while waiting for my car to arrive on boat after I negotiated original deal.
