Goodbye Z4

StepfordBMW · 10-10-2013, 09:35 AM

I leased my 2014 Z4 28i in June...

Was a fun summer toy, but an impulse purchase.

I will be trading it in (most likely today).

Unless someone wants to take over my lease...?

$470/mo (including tax), 18K a year....currently at 8k.

Buyout is $43k I think.

Alpine White on Canberra Kansas, Heated Seats, Premium Sound and Tech packs.

Just removed the SmartTop module which is for sale (PM me if you want it)
Also have the windscreen which I never used for sale as well (PM me if you want)

It's been a fun summer, with LOTS of looks from other envious drivers...
I'll be back, I'm sure.
For now, the X3 will suffice.

Cheers!

3/4 Months ownership? That must be a heck of a hit?

Unless you have disposable income be prepared to get completely hosed on the return.
Might be cheaper to keep her. Sort of like divorce

It's not too bad. Only $4k upside down. We all make mistakes lol.

Still in the BMW family. Just should've thought before I pulled trigger. Can't fit clients in this car.

E89 as impulse purchase is BOSS. well done OP.

Haha thanks.

The car was bad ass even with the 28. It growled. Had fun in the bends. The roads up here in CT are rough on the ride though!

army_men · 10-10-2013, 12:23 PM

Well done OP. I'd hardly chalk it up as mistake. I paid WAY TOO MUCH for my E89 too.

Get smaller clients!

Good luck with turn-in and next car!

There has to be some very large ($$$$$$) clients in CT to force the switch to a family hauler.

Can relate acting on impulse, but when spring arrives there isn't a better way to usher in the warm weather than driving a ZER.
Highest Regards
