2011-12 BMW Lease Rates – December 2011

27-month leases on the BMW 3-Series are available and they VERY GOOD! If you can stomach having to pay a full years registration to drive the car for only 3-months, this might be the best option if you want low monthly payments. This doesn’t come to me as a surprise since the 2011 production is either winding down or effectively over. Be sure to go to Edmunds to see what incentives are available. There are lots of rebates and dealer marketing cash available on select models. Those of you looking for a diesel, keep in mind the ECO credit, which cuts costs substantially.


Here is a sample calculation based on TrueCar’s Southern California sale price and do not include local taxes. Please note that your dealer calculations may vary due to local fees/taxes.

  1. Sorry – I wasn’t clear – what about 18k and 20k? Would that be deduct 2% and 3% respectively – i.e 67% for 18k and 66% for 20k??

  2. @Larry. With mileage over 15k, dealer use a “rate per mile” estimate to adjust the residual. Lets assume it’s 25 cents for per mile over 15k and you want 5k more a year. That would be 15,000 miles more over 3 years at 25 cents per mile, or $3750. Your residual will then drop by that amount from the 36mo/15k residual.
