The issue I have with the GLS is the lack of options at the moment. No Designo or exclusive Nappa options until the end of the year at minimum and no AMG appearance package (which I like) on the 450. Getting invoice has never been a big deal but I already have this confirmed in writing. Personally I prefer the GLS 580 styling with the AMG appearance package/23" wheels but I have to decide if the lack of interior choices is worth the wait. The X7 I looked at was Arctic Gray and had the Ivory White/Night Blue Full Leather Merino, captains chairs with Ash Grain Silver Gray High Gloss trim. I really like full leather light interiors so on the BMW, the interior was the winner. The problem I have is that all X7's in our area are pretty boring builds... |

As it stands, given their MF markup response I will not use that dealer. Will shop another dealer but also look forward to actually drive a GLS. After all, this is a new car and new engine configs... |

Nothing limited about them. They're new and not aging on dealer lots yet so that'll make it tougher to get a great deal at the moment - there's little incentive for dealers, on avg, to push them aggressively. But shop around and see where you net out.

Are you guys generally seeing better lease deals on BMWs than MBs'? I remember shopping for an x6M and GLE 550 a few years ago and the residuals, discounts, MFs, etc. were much better for BMWs. I may be looking to get x7 or GLE (?) as the release of new x5m and x6m has been delayed.

Unless you're in love with the new GLE, I'd go for the X7. There's a healthy stock of 19s right now - I suspect dealers will play ball to move them as the 20s are landing. Or get the 20 M50i . Where did you hear the X5M was delayed? Now *that* car will likely be fire. I also wanted to get it (coming from a 16 X5M) but ran out of lease. Back in 2016 there weren't that many around and I suspect getting a good discount on it will be tough, particularly at release. |

I need to test drive the new GLE. Back when I was cross shopping with x6 in 2014, I thought the 550 drove like a boat and just couldn't see myself driving it. BMW's driving dynamics are just better. I test drove X7 M5.0 a few months ago. While not in the same ball park as my x6M as expected, I think it is a great car and would be a great lease. I am seriously considering it. My other option is an M5 but I feel like it would be difficult for me to go back to sedans after 3 x6 leases. With respect to the delay, I initially heard that the x5m would have been out by this summer with production starting in the fall. Now I am hearing from one of the CA dealers that both x5m and x6m will be released in December. Definitely doesn't give me enough time to get it as my lease is up in February. I think you are right there won't be any deals on them until mid next year at the earliest. As an FYI, BMW FA will extend their leases by 2 months no questions asked (up to 6 months in aggregate) or by 6 months with a production number for the new car.

As for BMWFS lease extensions, yeah - I ended up getting a 3 month courtesy, of which I used up 2. I heard the same Dec timeline for the new X5M, so knew I wouldn't make it. That said, and to your point about the M5, that's exactly what I ended up getting into. Spent some time hunting for a good deal, and eventually found a bit of a unicorn deal on it. Had similar reservations about moving to a sedan and losing some of the "utility" of an SUV, but no issues - it's a great car. I considered the X7 50i as well but wasn't in love with the idea and dealers weren't really dealing on them at the time (did have one offer an 11% discount off a $108k sticker back in June, but it wasn't quite the build I wanted). If your lease is up in Feb, you may have time to stretch into X5/6M availability with the extension. Deals will be scant, as mentioned, but you might find an opportune dealer if you search hard enough . |

At least that's what I would think. Residuals are one thing - but what about the MF? We would need to see that as well to evaluate... |

It’s honestly so bad I’m considering walking away. They’re now telling me mf is .00168. I could’ve signed for this thing a week ago with a mf of ..00145 and 58 percent residual.
