Car Lease Question
I currently lease my BMW and I'll be up for a new car next year. Because my commute is so short I hardly have any miles on my car. When I hand it in I know that I will be way under.
I plan on leasing another BMW again. Do you think I will have any leverage in my monthy payments because of low milage?
For example, I have 10,000 miles a year and I only put on about 7,500 a year.

Re: Car Lease Question
yes- you can ask for 10K mile a year lease and it will be less $$$
I have the opposite issue- and I paid extra for 15K a year- which isn't even enough - b/c my DH drives my car instead of his

I''m already at 10,000 miles a year which is the lowest. Do you think they would go lower? It's crazy how few miles I put on my cars.

you can ask- but I have never heard of lower then 10K
but I know MB will customize a lease- maybe BWM will also?

I asked my DH, who is a BMW of NA employee and he believes the lowest is 10,000. This is due to issues of mileage fraud. However he works in Engineering and not sales. Good luck.

Re: Car Lease Question
DH said as far as he knows, the 10,000 miles per year lease is the lowest (which is what I have too since I barely put miles on my truck). It really stinks they don't re-imburse you for miles not used  I'll have about 25K miles when I turn my truck in (I get 32K for the 39 month lease).....
What you can do is be sure the insurance co. knows this because there are discounted rates for driving very few miles.
