Which BMW model did you recently lease? I know the money factors on some 2008 3 Series models are only 0.00075 through the end of the month. Tempting. Read More...

The asking prices at dealerships do not reflect any concession to the economy or the oversupply of these cars. Depends on how much it costs them to keep cars on their lots and customer demands. If people are willing to overpay for a used BMW there is no incentive for them to change their asking prices. It always amazes me that people who earn enough money to buy a BMW ... Read More...

A majority of BMWs were leases so I also thought they were in the car rental rather than car sales business. While BMW couldn't compete based ... Read More...
