Flipped my 650 today

voodoojar · 02-23-2016, 05:00 PM

So heading down the street at about 40mph in the rain today some guy pulled out from a cross right in front of me. I acted as quickly as possible to avoid him but ended up clipping him, went into a spin, hit a light pole, did a full roll landing on a pickup truck. I'm lucky to be alive.

So my question is what's the best site to buy out someones lease, I need another car.

Ric in RVA · 02-23-2016, 05:05 PM

Stuck the landing!!!!

Glad you are OK. Sorry about the car...

Law · 02-23-2016, 05:06 PM

Ouch, glad you're ok.

Just the fact you're here speaking about it and being able to get a replacement is a blessing.

You can try the marketplace here on Bimmerpost, where there are lease takeovers posted here and there.
But there are also dedicated sites which will have more frequency and traffic for what you're looking for such as:
http://www.swapalease.com/
http://www.leasetrader.com/

I have no personal experience with these, so perhaps other members here can share their thoughts and experiences.
But think of these sites as autotrader/cars.com but for trading/taking over leases.

voodoojar · 02-23-2016, 05:07 PM

Thanks man.vi spent like 10 hours on Saturday doing paint correction and I just put a brand new set of wheels on it too. But hell I get to buy a new car now so that's cool

Arcades · 02-23-2016, 05:09 PM

Wow.

Glad you are alright that is one hell of a flip. I love driving in the rain but its just so dangerous around bad drivers.

HRE_Wheels · 02-23-2016, 05:30 PM

Holy moly. Glad to know that you're ok.

Like Law said, http://www.swapalease.com/ and http://www.leasetrader.com/ are the sites I've heard of (I haven't used them myself), so I would start there.

overcoil · 02-23-2016, 06:17 PM

That is crazy.

chillindrdude · 02-23-2016, 07:28 PM

My YMB m3 is available for lease assumption

MKSixer · 02-23-2016, 07:31 PM

Glad you're ok, OP.

Good luck with your decision.
Cheers-mk

WHL102 · 02-23-2016, 07:46 PM

Wow, I can't believe you walked away from that.

You can try swapalease or even the forums.

Mywifes335 · 02-23-2016, 07:58 PM

That sucks.

djDori_C · 02-23-2016, 08:08 PM

Glad you're ok
Safe motoring
There's also lease busters

MotownMJ · 02-24-2016, 04:09 PM

Holy cow-looks like the car gave its life to save yours! Were you hurt at all?

HoustonRider · 02-24-2016, 04:32 PM

prolly need to wait and see how the guy with the truck responds to your insurance company getting hit by a $100k car.

My dad loaned his car to a guy and the guy had a fender bender (literally broke the guys rim/tire on the truck) and although had $300/500, the kid with the trucks atty sent a demand for $3.2 and $1.2m for damage and work loss. his truck had less than $1000 in damage.

Royce Martin · 02-24-2016, 08:03 PM

How do these lease swaps work?

r33_RGSport · 02-24-2016, 08:42 PM

@voodoojar , glad you are ok.
I was thinking to let go my 650GC early, but not sure whether to put it back to stocks or sell it as is.

WWnyc · 02-24-2016, 09:29 PM

Unbelievable you walked away from that!
Someone truly was watching out for you and your 6 did give its life for you.
You need another!
So lucky

NYC650IX_GC · 02-24-2016, 10:49 PM

Wow that's looks bad....Glad your ok and walked away from that! Now you can work on a new project!!!

Kurodog · 02-24-2016, 10:57 PM

I had great success on swapalease.com. I just assumed a lease 650i gran coupe with 740 miles on it.

Here are some types of people put their cars up. (1) financial trouble (2) made too many mods. And can't turn back in (3) too many miles.

Know the car you are planning to swap. Know the options and value.

Use a professional service to check out your car (if it is out of town)

Be careful of the car shipping company

You can negotiate with the seller.

Hope this helps. Good luck !!!!

gtr_skyline · 02-25-2016, 10:04 AM

Sorry to hear - glad you're ok

Mitaka · 02-25-2016, 01:50 PM
