That's at full msrp. I got a giga (no laser lights) for less money down and around $200 less per month. David Avilles at Steve Thomas BMW is the man.

Super easy to work with him and Jimmy. Biggest hassle is UPS not delivering my paperwork yesterday. I leave town Monday and I'm not back for a week. Luckily David resent the paperwork today via Fedex first overnight, so should be all good on Monday.

Damn you UPS!!

Im not even bothering shopping around for my brothers i8 this month because I know no one will beat Davids deal. And if they do- it'll probably be a demo car

MSRP: $151,795
Adjusted Cap Cost: $124,363
Residual: $98,666
36 months
10k miles per year
$3,126 total out of my pocket including 1st payment and acquisition fee
Monthly payment: $1,017.11 PLUS tax (8.15) = $1,100.00

I think I did well and, importantly, I am extremely happy about it.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the $27K reduction in price. How was this possible? The customer associate I work with is just as confused. I'll gladly take any advice you can offer as how I can justify requesting a $27k discount. If I could work the same deal you did, I'm in!

Hey, so, has Bmw stop doing leases for 2015 models? I'm wondering because I found a great deal for an i8 and I was thinking about may be getting it...

Thank you for your assitance!

I tried sending these numbers to Steve Thomas bmw and they said they no longer can offer those same prices, but they were able to give me a white Tera world with no laser lights, 148k, at 128k.

Hi all, I am shopping around on a i8 lease. What would be considered a solid deal for a $142k msrp car? Say if $2k is put down. I am looking to get one immediately. thanks in advance

I just got a deal on a 2016 with 148k msrp (white with Tera), 2k driveoff including 1st month payment, 10k/yr 3yr, for ~1260/month including tax..selling price was knocked down to 128k, so I'm guessing yours would be knocked down maybe another 3-4k and have a payment around 11-1150..i also had to pay 1k shipping to get the config I wanted, as there weren't anymore in the area like that, so im still waiting for mine to arrive..hoping just another week or 2!

[stressdoc]

Looks like some of you are getting 20-25k price reduction for 2016s. Not many 2015s left but one would think that 30k reduction might be possible. Residuals are tough on the 2015s, so lease figures are not favorable unless dealers knock price way down.

I was really curious if you guys had any tips or know of any good i8 lease deals. I see that a lot of people are able to get dealerships to drop down the MSRP. How are you able to do that? In Miami if anyone knows of any good deals down here.

This is a current deal I'm just looking at, I'm really looking to get into an i8 lease, would like some help if anyone can offer. Thanks!

That looks like a pretty good deal to me, but I'm no expert. The standard lease deal on the BMW website is about $2400 per month.

You just have to call/e-mail dealerships around the US and see if anyone is willing to give you $20-25k off MSRP. If they say yes, ask for a lease quote and make sure you understand their calculation (residuals, money factor...etc)

You can also call and e-mail them and say you want to pay $XXX amount with zero down. I usually like to start with sales price first because most sales people aren't familiar with lease calculation and think low $1,000 payment with zero down on a $150k is ridiculous.

That deal at South BMW is very bad. They want a $15k down payment and $7k security deposit.

Payment should be anywhere from $1,000 - 1,300 a month with zero down. It also varies on your taxes since each state is different.

Thanks! I'm going to have to start emailing up some dealerships.

Hit up David Aviles at Steve Thomas bmw, literally just picked up my i8 3 days ago! He will just instantly give you a good offer, no haggling needed. Mine had 148k Msrp, got it for 2k drive off including 1st payment, and 1260/month after tax

Wouldn't it be difficult to get the car to Miami?

[KrackerXL]

Should be picking up one next week. 15xxxx msrp 2016. 0 down 1088 taxes included. If I do 7msd's which I don't plan to it will drop it down to like 800 something i believe.

Not at all, they will arrange shipping for you. Most of the cars they find aren't even on their lot but on lots around the country. The one I chose came from the east coast. Plenty of others from this forum have also went through him..tell him Sasha sent u!

What was the selling price they knocked it down to? And what dealership if you don't mind? Thanks!

I don't believe this deal is possible. Sorry. I think you're forgetting taxes and fees?

I think it's possible since I got the same deal but not with the MSD @ $800 a month.
