His reason was because of the pandemic bmw has there factory’s closed so they won’t be receiving any cars for a while so they not willing to sell thru there inventory at high discounted rates. Idk how true that is but I have noticed that most dealers won’t really wave your remaining payments they will move money around to make it look like they did. The best advice I would give you is to be patient you still got 2 months on your lease look around for better offers.
Thanks for the recommendation, and yes that's what I'm trying to do. I just sent a request thorught David, lets see what it comes back. I'm paying so much on my current car that anything lower than what I'm paying feels like a win.

Edit:
Working the payments backwards it seems I'm getting a 13% off the loaner and 10% off the new car. The monthly payment is close to 1% of MSRP in both. However the problem is the tax, since I get taxed for the whole car price (close to 4K on both), that adds up around 100+/month to either deal. The dealer is already giving me base MF. So I guess the only option I have is working to have a higher % discount off MSRP.

Yeah looking at the numbers seems you are right. Instead of "paying off my lease" they are using my car as a trade and dropping the taxes from 4K to 1+K. Seems like the best course of action is to wait for a better deal.
