I'm leasing 36/10 and they don't have the lease rates yet for these. But based on previous years, I'm guessing we will see a two or three point drop to 63 or 64%. My CA guessed the same.

What we have going for us is the 340i lease rates are lumped in with the 328i rates, and the LCI 328i will be plentiful and not in as high demand as the 340i initially, so that will keep the numbers high on those to keep moving cars. So that works in our favor keeping the 340i residuals high linked to the 328i.
