I see advertisements on CL sometimes for the 328i (Example: "299/month & 1,999 down). I'm wondering if anyone here has leased a 328i at one of those advertised rates and if so whether the care was bone stock or not. Anyone know? BMW.com also posts their lease specials too. If you walk in to a dealership and ask for that are you going to get a no-optioned car? Thx.

Usually the cars come with a package or two but remember never to give a downpayment on a lease. Use Multiple Security Deposits (7), I believe is the max and just simply start negotiating from the Invoice figure after you have done your homework. The rest will fall into place. Keep in mind you need to know the money factor of course before you go in. They will try and 'pad" that for dealer profit by .25 usually. Happened to me. Remember, those advertising are exactly what they try to do ... show a low monthly, low mileage lease with the extra down payment to further get your attention which it already has. Just know your numbers prior to walking and know exactly what you want before they pull the shell game on you. Good luck!
