So i put a deposit on a 335i sedan...

24 month lease
10k miles a year
0 down for $700 a month

Is that a good deal?

Car is fully loaded with sport,premium and cold weather packages... navigation,paddle shifters,automatic transmission and a bunch of other goodies.


I really wanted a coupe but i was told by dealers that its about 3-8 month depending on the dealer and the slots open.

They found a 335i black on black sedan sitting at the port in VA and i took it.

What thing that bothers me really is the tails on the sedan... did someone make a euro clears for the sedans yet?

I have everything except Adaptive Steering, Adaptive Cruise, and Park Sensor.

Paid $1000 less than MSRP

Zero Down
15k year
36 months
62% Residual Value at end of lease.
770 month.

My increased cost is due to higher milage and 36 vs 24 months.

Less months cost more...

I talked my dealer down from 750 to 700... im wondering if thats a good deal or should i harass him some more?

By fully loaded, do you mean with Nav also? Your payment seems pretty good/low. Where do you live?

Try the blacklines taillights. Approximately $210 shipped from pacificbmw.com and they look much better IMO than the stock E90 tails.

Here's a pic of them on my SG E90 335:

Wake Forest, NC.
Performance BMW in Chapel Hill is where I made the purchase.

No offense...but what's the difference? :dunno

Also...are those OEM, or aftermarket?

They are OEM.

Do you know what the stock E90 tails even look like? It's a huge difference. The red is less "candy-apple" and more subdued. The white is smoked, and the upper part of the outside tail (turn signal) is now smoked-white with an Amber bulb.

Maybe this will help....before....and after.....

That will be my first addition to my 335i along with window tints... those clear blackline tails should look great on a black sedan.

Is there anyway to get rid of the amber turn signals on the headlights? i seen a euro headlight set for about $1200... pretty expensive

Yeah, I wish it was easy/cheap to get rid of the amber on the headlights as well. One of my major beefs of the sedan/coupe design. I like the Sedan's looks overall better than the Coupe, but I wish they had the same headlights.

Someone posted here about baking apart the lenses and removing the amber, but it sounded like a lengthy and tricky process. I probably wouldn't have the gumption to try it on a car I owned, much less on a lease since I'd have to put it back before turn-in.

For $210 though, I was more than happy to swap out the tails for the blacklines. It really does "make the car" IMO.

That worked. Thanks.

Sounds like you have a good lease. If MF is less than .0025 that is good. Note BMW financial is not punitive if you want or need more miles per year. Give that a thought.
