BMW 3 series lease $299

I wonder if the 8 will have similar lease rates? Are they trying to compete with 8. It is the 1.8 litre engine I believe they are offering for that amount.

How is it optioned - do you get a steering wheel for that price?

If it had Sport + Premium packages in the $299 (normally a $4100 extra) then it is a good price.

Yea but I don't expect to pay that little for the RX-8.

After ~1500-2000 down, I'm expecting to pay in the neighborhood of around $400 a month.

I think a lease should be in the $400 ballpark with $2k down. Just a guess... I am still trying to decide if I should finance or lease (I always exceed my lease mileage by 2k-10k miles when I get 15k miles per year - Mazda's maximum).

Has there been any confirmation there will be a lease? I troll the Evo boards and I know that Mitsu is offering no lease for that. You either buy it or you leave empty handed. I personally am interested in a lease so being able to do that would push this car even higher in my book. As for the 299, i'm sure you get like 10.2K miles a year on that sucker, no thanks.

There will be, because the paperwork I've signed already states it's a 36 month lease with 15k miles. They just need to get residual values and such

Wow, lets see, Evo's being sold 5000+MSRP, RX8 being sold at MSRP. Evos allow No Lease but RX8 does. Looking like the Evo fell completely out of site and I'm now down to an RX8 or a 325. Guess Mitsu wanted to make things easier for me.
