What credit score do I need to lease a BMW?

Most BMW Financial Services leases are approved at 680 or above for the best rates. Our finance team works with a range of lenders — don't rule yourself out before asking.

Can I buy my BMW at the end of the lease?

Yes. Most BMW leases include a purchase option at a predetermined residual value. If you fall in love with the car, buying it at lease-end is simple and straightforward.

How many miles are included in a BMW lease?

Standard options are 10,000 or 12,000 miles per year. If you drive more, we'll build in a higher mileage allowance upfront — it's almost always cheaper than paying overage fees at turn-in.

What happens if I go over my mileage?

Excess mileage is typically billed at $0.25–$0.30 per mile at lease-end. The smart move is to get the right allowance at signing — your BMW specialist can help you calculate the right fit.

Are BMW lease payments tax-deductible for business use?

If you use your BMW for business, a portion of your lease payment may be deductible. Consult a tax professional for guidance specific to your situation.

Can I customize a leased BMW?

Bolt-on accessories (floor mats, cargo organizers, roof racks) are generally fine. Permanent modifications aren't recommended — you'll return the vehicle in its original condition, with normal wear and tear accepted.
