Ordered my 09 C63 today

I just ordered a my 09 C63 today: White, Pano roof(checking availability), P2, Media package. It will replace my 335i. Interestingly, I stopped at the BMW dealer last weekend and was planning on seriously looking at the DCT 09 M3 when my 335i lease runs out in 4 months The salesman was very helpful until it came time to price out the M3 that I wanted to replace the 335i with. I was floored when he came back with a monthly lease price of $1400 per month with standard drive off money. F$ck him! I have either bought or leased BMW's including the 335i for the last 30 years and I have excellent credit and this weenie comes up with $1400 a month for 36 months? That's TWICE what my 24 month lease payment is on my 335i! And I guarantee that the price was not twice what the Cap value of the 335i was ($46K). Anyway, I'm looking forward to driving this sexy little beast until the E55 goes back in 14 months then I'll wait on whether AMG is serious about a TT E AMG!!!

Congrats!

Also what should the M3 lease price be, 1,400$ is insane for a car that is like 72k.

Using my 335i lease number $721 per month (Cap Value @ $46K) and the M3 Cap Value at $64K I would have expected the M3 to lease for about $1003 per month. a $400 increase per month is ludicrous for this car. My Salesman on the C63 expects the lease to be about $900+ per month with about $4500 drive off if I don't add anything else to the car.

i got an estimate at my local BMW dealer too, $5k down, monthly would be $1400~.

I've been reading that people have been getting $0 down, $1068~/month leases on the C63

I thought BMW usually has good lease rates too??? (guess I'm wrong)

I would love to lease a C63, might be time to upgrade from my G35.
