are March rates better than Feb?

It appears the borrowing rates for F30s dropped from 4.9% to 3.9%, and the Money Factors dropped from .00195 to .0016 (did some reverse calculations on bmwusa.com lease offers)? Can someone confirm or deny this information? Can someone publish the March rates for the F30.

Thanks!

my CA said that my rate is locked in for Feb, but if the rates get better in March or April i can take advantage of the reduction. i can't find the March rates online.

That 3.9% is for 36 months. Fine print says that 48 to 60 months is still 4.9%

I wonder if that reduced the money factor on leases?

I financed my F30 through BMWFS at their absurdly high rates (4.9%) only because I was doing ED and it makes that much easier. I definitely will be refinancing to another option in the 2.5-3.0% range ASAP - those rates are easy to find at this time.

I only looked at the 'offers' on the bmw site, that's all I did. It's funny really because since we now probably stay in Hawaii, I was wondering if I shouldn't just finance half the car instead of paying it in full. There is no real need to have the title in my name, that's why, and it's extra money we could use to put towards a place here (which is not exactly cheap in Hawaii lol) but, for now, I doubt we will go with a partial car loan. It seems getting double the money will cost half the amount when adding that money to a mortgage and that's less payment every month (only downside it's 30 years as opposed to 3-5 lol).
