Wanna know the f***ed up thing? Back in October my dealership was asking 2.9 and 3.9 when BMW FS was at 0.9. So with it being 1.9...I'm a little worried since my lock in expires soon.

Edit: Also from a practical standpoint, I don't want to take legal ownership of a car that I don't have in my possession. If that car is damaged in transit, arrives less than perfect, or has some other kind of mishap, you're on the hook.

Another interesting tactic that is mentioned on here, is simply applying directly through BMWFS online. Which apparently secures the best buy rate available at the time, without mark-up, and then the dealer is essentially stuck with it?? In either case, sorry your lock is expiring soon. Perhaps in the end, your dealer will be able to do something for you as a gesture of good faith. Once the market softens again, I hope dealers realize that we'll remember the ones who treated us well, and the ones who didn't... |

True, merlin3008. In my case PCD delivery date was scheduled, so timing of executing the sale worked out normally. (VPC had days before released the car to the Performance Center.)
For non-PCD cars, I don’t know how much influence or latitude dealers have to secure the certificate of origin before the VPC releases the car to the carrier. |

Did BMW used to charge higher than most other dealers a few years ago ? I feel like that is standard with the luxury brands because they feel they can. But this is my first car and rates are so low

Why am I still seeing 0.9% (not 1.9%) on the BMW site? This looks like it's good at least through the end of this month.

Hmmm looks like it’s back to .9% although I could have sworn 2 days ago when I checked it was at 1.9% (Los Angeles). My CA is following up when he gets in the office, will update when I get more info

Omfg, it's at 1.90 now. If I hadn't taken a screenshot earlier today I would have thought I was seeing things. Well, this sucks.

question. If you dont know if you are leasing vs financing the car (it's on the way) does it matter what you put on the app? As in choosing lease vs finance? then when it actually gets to the dealer you can decide.. |

Nope, it just means you are eligible to receive whatever program incentives/rates for lease/finance were in the month you applied/locked. As stated elsewhere those expire 60/90 days depending on where you are and you should extend or re-apply before expiration as those rates could change/get worse.

I'm locked at 0.9% and I'm probably a week from delivery. SA told me last month they will honor it. I just had to do the credit check at the time.

I asked my CA "Doesn't BMW have a process to extend the rate lock before it expires?" He said they don't. |
