this is very true. inflation is going to kick in BIG TIME. Buy those pricey cars now before they get more expensive. the good thing is I wont be in my 328xi as far upside down as I am now if it's resale value increases. I hope BMW does increase the MSRP by $2-4000.

We are going to see this adjustment first in the lease rates for the new "M" and the 135. Most people lease rather than buy so BMW can hold off on a PRICE increase for a little while. But we WILL see an increase in MSRP all across the board sooner or later. Simple economics. BMW must raise the price to stay in business.
Kiss cheap leases goodbye for a long time. Welcome to the recession boys.
