A dealership here in Los Angeles located a dealer trade for me, and is offering me the following:

2014 X1 sDrive28i
M Sport
19" double spoke wheels
Alpine white
Black leatherette interior
Technology package
Heated seats

MSRP 39,325

Sale price: 37,751 (I think I can get it for 37,500 today if I go back)

Im thinking of leasing as well.. They want $3500 down.. At $500 a month with 15k miles per year.

Let me know your thoughts!

Thanks
That's a beyond terrible deal.

Unless you're forgetting some options (which I don't think you are based on leatherette) the real MSRP of that car is $38,075. The invoice price is $35,570 including destination and handling, MACO fee, and training service fee.

I would not pay more than $36,070 for that car. You can get these for $500 over invoice all day long.

They are raping you on the lease as well. Aside from the fact that you should never, never, never put money down on a lease, assuming $36070 capitalized cost with 6% tax, base money factor of .00127 and a 57% residual, you should be at $500 even per month with no down payment.

Negotiate up from invoice price, not down from MSRP.
