I know (think) I know the answer to this but …..I want to buy out the lease from BMW on wife’s car then trade it. . Can the dealer who will facilitate the transaction simply buy the car from BMW . BTW..it is a tastefully modified 2019 F33 cab..stage 2 M package, front/ rear lip/ valence as well as cabs in carbon, interior trimmed with Mancini mats, winter tires on OEM rims, Michelin PS4 on Alpina rims- conservatively lowered..35000 KM. Black on blue leather- gorgeous car. Will transact in April when her other car comes out of storage. Opinion to asking price?

Buying the car at end of lease means you buy the car from bmw and usually there's a paperwork charge from the dealer

What's the dealership offering you for a trade in?

Maybe better to private sell it?

Plan would be to agree with on a sale price with a private buyer and ask the dealer to facilitate the sale (paperwork). I have a number of conservative cosmetic mods on the car that would be shameful to remove.

Not can - the dealer has to buy the car from BMW before it is sold to you.

BMW Financial Services > BMW dealership > buyer of lease.

Any opinion to price ‘ask’ please?

hey if you're still in the process of thinking about buying out the lease then resell for a profit, if your lease is not ending soon I suggest you reselling it to any bmw dealership that gives you the highest profit. they'll exclude the tax if a bmw dealership buys it from you. but for a private sale you'll need to buyout the remaining residual value plus taxes and $1000 buyout fee then the new owner needs to pay taxes on the new sale too.
