nj_bmw_buyer Have a look at this link http://forums.roadfly.com/forums/financing/6451130-1.html This is an archived list of BMWFS lease rates for April 2005.

rezf, I am starting not to trust this entire process, including information obtained here. This is not my first lease, not even my first X5 lease. This will be my 3rd. When the X5 was first introduced it was a hot selling car as well. Everywhere I went salespeople where say 800.00+ for an X5 3.0 series with 12/36 lease package. After rigorous negotiation I got the ... Read More...

Re: BMW X5...vs Land Cruiser? [bcb1]

Written by: kkelly2 on Mar 25, 2008 06:16 AM

In December we traded in our 2000 Landcruiser for a 2008 X5 3.0. If it were not for the > $70k price tag and the 3rd row that doesn't fold flat, I would have definitely gone for another Landcruiser. In the 8 years we had it, we never had one problem. But I wanted to upgrade safety features, get a nav and sat. radio and especially increase the mpg. Our search was limited ... Read More...
