I had a '16 750 that was nearing lease end in Dec '18 but the X7 wasn't due to arrive till 4/19. I called BMW FS to buy miles a few weeks before the end of the lease in Dec. I was asked how many miles I wanted and told her I didn't know for sure since it depended on the X7 production schedule. She ended up "locking in" the discounted rate and said when I turn in the sedan, the overage would be calculated and the charge assessed. Sure enough, I was charged the non-discounted rate. One call later, a check of the notes on my account, and I was back at the discounted rate.
From what I remember, you can only buy miles ONLINE up to six months before lease end (then the button disappears). After that you need to call FS and talk to them. I've also received communications from FS (mail/email) which states you can buy up till the day before the end, again by calling.
