Just curious what ya'll have passed on or locked in, in the past.

Obviously the market is vastly different than it was 2+ years ago.

For me - 2019 M4CS out here in Phoenix. I was negotiating with Chandler BMW and passed on a ~$700 monthly payment with minimal down. It may have been like $1,000. I was trying to get in the $600's if I remember correctly.

It can be any model / make.

This was my M340i deal when I signed back in October 2019... before the market went to shit. Got 10% off PLUS $3k in incentives. With $0 downpayment (only MSDs + 1st month payment + dealer fees).

MSRP: $68,970
Sale Price: $62,100 (10% discount)
Incentives: $2k loyalty; $1k lease cash
Adjusted Cap Cost: $59,100

Monthly Payment: $667 (including tax)
Drive-Off Amount: $6,023 (7 MSD-$4,900 + 1st month payment-$667 + Fees-$455)
Months: 36
Annual Mileage: 12,000
MF: .00138
Residual:60%

Leased a 2018 Wrangler Sport S with $38k sticker for $358/month with $0 paid out of pocket, all taxes and fees rolled into the lease, 36 months 10k miles a year. Sold the car a few months ago for $3700 more than I paid for it brand new, so my entire lease cost about $2k to drive the car for 3 years all said and done.

I leased a 2017 NSX that had a sticker price of $206,500 for $1,800/mo, 3/36k miles. Only $2,500 down too.

Never driven the 991.1 but I know the steering was quite poorly received, as it was Porsche's first attempt at EPS. Could be exaggerated.

Here's my best: 2019 440iGC

Circa: August 2021

The LH score is 23.3 years, however this does include a $350 post sale rebate which is actually just the waiving of the dispo fee on our current BMW X1 lease.

Deal Specifics (DEMO):
MSRP: $58,195
Selling Price: $43,910 (24.5% off, Excl incentive)
Incentive: $7,500
Zero cost down, not even first month
MSD (7) - $1,750
Mileage: 4,222
24mon/24k term (23 payments)
Acq fee waived for .0005 MF increase
Final MF .0016 after MSD and Acq fee waiver
Final Res 60.4%
$350 waiver of dispo on current BMW lease
$800 in Govt and dealer fees
7% Sales tax
PMT - 23 x $247.74 (=24 x $237.42), including tax

The dealer I leased it from is giving me about $4k over my buyout when I trade it in on my new M440CV, so that's not bad on such a super low lease but this is obviously the result of the market. The real deal is the lease itself.

I've had 3 BMW i3s. All three leases had pretty much the same structure:

MSRP: ~$50-55k
10% discount
Cap reduction: $7500 federal, $2000 loyalty
3rd i3 had an additional $2k off (more on this later)
0.61 Residual
Max MSDs
My down payments were made up of post sale rebates with an effective net $0 drive off:
-$2500 state
-$1000 BMWCCA
-$450 energy company

Monthly payment INCLUDING TAX for my three i3's were:

$177/mo
$204/mo
$198/mo

Thats not even the best part though:

my second i3 had a problem with the power steering that wouldn't go away. It was in the shop for about a month or more. BMW offered to buy it back. I refused because I just wanted it fixed and I loved the car.

They offered a payout that basically gave me all my monthly payments back plus an additional $2k off my next BMW.

Needless to say I couldn't say no. So not only did I basically get to drive the i3 for free for a year, but I upgraded the next i3 with the moon roof and nicer interior and the payments actually came out to be less!

Wish I could find a cheap lease on something right now. I prefer something fun, obviously, but would take a sub $200 per mo zero down econobox lease to have as a beater

I didn't even know an X1 could be spec'd to $58k. What type of sucker would pick that from the lot.

Now as a demo with that discount it's another story.

I remember when dealers were discounting the new NSX because it wasn't selling, then Acura was also adding a $20k incentive.

Current lease hack right now is the new Nissan Frontier. In 4wd Crew Cab spec, a 18 month lease has a 98% residual. Although it is tough to find inventory and a dealer that won't have ad-ons or adm.

Good point. Clarifying info added...

My lease is for the 2019 440gc I'm currently driving. The x1 was our prior lease.
