Chrome handles are now body colored.

windtendo · 10-25-2018, 11:50 PM

lease residuals are about 10% better on the 2018's for now.

No you’re good. It was an option for a small price for 2018. For 2019, it’s standard but a pay to use subscription.

Even on the base models?

Any idea how much it would cost to have a dealer replace my chrome door handles with body color ones (just the little chrome insert pieces, not the whole handle)?

10%?

Are you sure? What does that do for the payments?

You can have them vinyl wrapped for a hundred bucks give or take. I had mine done and very happy with the results.

I'd say on average it brings up the payment 200/month easily.

Say you settle on a car that has an MSRP of 115K. With a residual of 61% that is a depreciation of 44850 at the 2018 rate, but 56350 at the 2019 rate of 51%. Assuming you purchased at MSRP (which you shouldn't) that is 1245.83/month for the 2018, and 1565.28/month on the 2019.

It makes getting the 2019 on a lease much more costly.

Edit: Those monthly costs do not factor in the bank money or taxes, just depreciation.

Are you a salesman? Let's do a deal on a 2018 then...

Not a salesman, just went through it in August so I did the math. The 2018 is a much better deal for a lease unless BMW adjusts the residuals.

For reference, riceman's numbers are spot on, but if you want to calculate yourself use Ride with G Auto Lease Calculator.

Is 2019 the LCI or will it be 2020?

Ex_Stig · 10-30-2018, 11:25 AM

The car just came out in '18. I would guess that the LCI will be in either 2021 or 2022.

And the 18 model only had about half a year of production at that.

frisky · 10-30-2018, 11:36 AM

For the F10, I think the LCI came out as the 2015 model year. Two years after the F10 was introduced as a 2013 model.

So given that, the LCI for F90 should be the 2020 model.

F10 began production in 2010 as 2011 model year; LCI came in 2013 as 2014 model year.
