E93 lease takeover anyone?

Would like to put this on lease swap, anyone with positive experience getting out of their lease? I have 17 months left for a fully loaded E93, pearl whilte/light Blue interior, MSRP was 82K. Lease is apprx. $970 + tax, 16k miles left. Appreciate any feedback.

Anyone? I guess I should offer an incentive...

Some have had good experiences, some not as good. In the end, it will come down to the lease payment (how good the price you bought the car for) and any money down required, as most people shopping to take over a lease are looking for a bargain. It gets more complicated with MSD's which must be paid upfront from the buyer, to be returned at lease termination. I think most lease takeover candidates do not want to put any money in.

You will need to be prepared to be hammered for low ball offers since many buyers know that many who look for a lease out need to get out. Incentives seem to be a good way to get attention. Good luck - there is always a buyer out here somewhere, just need to make it so that your deal is much better than just doing a new lease. Good luck.

Here is another post by someone who has had success:

Thanks for the reply. The way I rationalize it: If someone wants a short lease (16 months or so) with no $ out of pocket, then i is hard to beat lease takeover. Also, are the prices on these sites without tax? I assume so, as each state has a different tax %...
