Hi there vino1. I would be more than happy to help you out, but since Toyota's lease program varies depending upon which one of its twelve regions one is in, I need to know what state you plan on leasing your new car in. Let me know and I will let you know. Car_man Host Smart Shopper Message Board

No problem, eagwheels. If you were to lease a 2005 Pilot EX-L without navigation or the rear entertainment system through American Honda Finance Corp. right now for 3 years with 12,000 miles per, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00250 and 64%, respectively. Using these numbers, an MSRP of $32,635 and a selling price of $31,135, I come up with a zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment of right around $415. The money factor would be the same for the '05 Pilot EX, but the residual value would be 2% higher. Car_man Host Smart Shopper Message Board

You're welcome, kjw24. Yes those numbers are right on the money. Whoever told you that the cash incentives on the 3-Series expired on October 1st was either mistaken or just lied. BMW's cash incentives on '04 3-Series models are still there and are scheduled to run through November 1st. The supply of 2004 BMWs is definitely getting pretty thin. If you want one, you better act now. You may have to look at a few dealers to find a leftover 3-Series equipped the way that you want it, but there are still a few out there. Make sure to act quickly if you want one because they are going fast and I don't expect there to be much in the way of lease support on most '04 BMWs in November.

Carman, What are the current numbers on lease deals on the 2004 VW Phaeton? Are the best #'s on a 36 month lease? I can do 36, or 42 months, 12k miles per year. What are the MF's and Residuals for those? Also, just to triple check, what are the current incentives on the Phaeton (cash back, etc). I know they are posted on Edmunds, but I have had dealers mention stuff that isn't posted. Thanks!

I plan on leasing either an '04 or '05 Acura TSX. I live in Miami, FL. I've got two questions concerning the leasing process: 1. Once and for all, what fees SHOULD I expect and not be expected to pay- disposition fee, acquisition fee, etc.? Do they depend on your credit rating and/or where you live and/or the dealership? 2. Does the residual and money factor depend on where you live, credit ratings, leasing co.?? Or is it a standard number? Thanks for all your help! |

Hi Car_man: I have a question on leasing a company car for a small company. Both Honda and Nissan dealers ask me to have a board member of the company sign a form to show leasing such a car is approved (by the board). What's is the purpose of such? Do all manufacturers require such? |
