$36,000
$3000 down
15,000 miles/year
Montly payment: $470
Isn't this outrageus? used I think so!
What's a good lease price?

You'll need to give more details - ie
- where are you - I assume the US?
- Term of the lease?
- Residual value
- etc etc.
Regardless, as a starting point $470 a month is too high for a 325xi imho
That seems very high. Here in the NY metroplolitan area, 325is are leasing for around $300 with $3,000 down.
To *buy* an '04 325i, manual shift, with the Premium package, HK radio, and Xenon lights, and metallic paint would have cost us $540 a month, for 60 months, with $5,000 down. The financing would have been through BMW finance. We're going to get an '05 BTW.
So......what you were quoted seems very high to me.
