Maintenance plan transfer

[jm600rr]

I was looking at leasing an X5M and also considering a lease transfer. Quick search seems to indicate maintenance plan transfer is not possible. Is this accurate? Can it be added at a cost on lease transfers?

Thanks!

Yup, in 2016 calendar year I believe BMW shorten the maintenance to 3-yr and also not transferable. But there is some fee if you insist on getting it transfered.

BMW closes the loophole, many lease returns bought by used car lot, brought back to dealer for all kind of maintenances then put for sale on used car lot. BMWNA loses alot of money this way.

Thanks. Was trying to figure out the pro and cons of doing a lease transfer vs just getting a new one.
