  CarMan -- you've helped me with the last several purchases. I considered a 2011 528i but read in forums of problems; one forum member returned the car. Plus, BMW MF is high, and dealers still wanted $2k above invoice. So, I consider 2011 Lexus GS 350, though I'd have to pay annually for saellite for for real traffic, pay for maintenace., and mpg is way inferior to BMW, so the price ... Read More

  For those who might read chucko's email. You have lots of options at lease end. You can buy the car! Might sound stupid(see last sentences). You can sell the car to someone else and keep the difference between the payoff and selling price. I kept my G35 in top shape and am selling it for $3000 more than stated residual. That's equal to my cap cost reduction when I picked it ... Read More

  There are $5500 difference between the sticker price & the invoice price. They still make $$ on the original offer. $45370 is still a good deal. Did the dealer give you some time to think about the offer? Like other poster already said. You will love the car. If you can afford to buy the car, you would be better off buying it. When the lease ends, you don't have anything ... Read More

I've been driving one for three years and am considering another because I can't find anything with all the features, easy to drive and never goes wrong. Keep in mind they will likely get a redesign in 2011 models, so if this bothers you... Leasing is a good option if you don't want the car more than three years. If you are ... Read More
