Car_Man, Thanks for the all the information you provide in this forum - it really helps level the playing field. I'm considering the 2005 350z roadster (touring). Do you have the base money factor and 24/36 month residuals ( |

Hello Everyone - I'm at the end of my lease on a 2001 Pathfinder and I'm about $2,000 in milage overages. I've negotiated a new lease on a 2005 for about $465 per month with $550 down and they will take my 2001 and I won't owe anything. However, the buyout on my 2001 lease is $17,300 and they're selling some like it for $21,000 on the lot. I don't want the hastle of buying it, then selling it, then doing a lease, and I don't want to pay the overage, so this deal seems pretty good to me. Has anyone else run into a situation like this? Anyone seen prices for a 2005 lease? 12K miles year, 39 months, $17,350 residual. Thanks! |

"However, the buyout on my 2001 lease is $17,300 and they're selling some like it for $21,000 on the lot." No they're not. They're ASKING that, for the next guy who is $2,000 buried, like you are. Or $4,000. So don't feel bad, sounds like they're doing ok by you... -Mathias

Hi Car_man, Now we're also looking at Audi, (I've posted recently asking about a Volvo XC90 lease.) In previous posts you said the Oct. program ended Nov. 3rd, do you have the November lease information? Looking for residuals and money factors for a 2005 allroad 2.7T with Tiptronic (automatic). Would like to know 36 and 48 months for both 12K and 15K. You're so awesome, you're work here is greatly appreciated! kzybulew |

| Hello carman. I am hoping you can help me out with some numbers for a lease on a 2005 Quest S. It is basically a standard vehicle, with a few minor options, such as microfilter and mats. The sticker is 25,700+-. I am looking for the current money factor and residual on a 36 or 39 month lease, with 12k per year on the mileage. I would like to be well informed before entering the dealership. I see that there are currently no incentives or marketing support, just a low APR if purchasing. That surprises me, considering the sluggish sales. I appreciate all of your help. | |
| Car Man: You helped me save money on a Lexus lease earlier this year. I'm considering a Chrysler 300C with $37070 MSRP. For 36 mos/12k mi, what's the latest money factor and residual value? Does DC offer the $1000 financial bonus on this model? Thanks. | |

I have a problem and I'd really appreciate some help. I had a lease car, which was stolen a day ago. I moved to New York City, where I only drive the car once in a blue moon. So, I overlooked my insurance. It apparently expired a while ago. Now my car is stolen and I don't know what to do. I checked my documents and GAP insurance is already included in my lease. What will be my liability and what should I do. Thank you for your advice in advance.

Hi drdog. Leasing may not be a bad idea if you lease a Honda and the charge per additional mile is less than or equal to the reimbursement that you receive from your employer. There is no limit to how high your excess mileage penalty will be. If you rack up a ton of miles, you definitely could end up owing thousands of dollars. You need to make sure that you are disciplined enough to put away the money that your employer gives you for driving so that you don't get caught having to pay a huge penalty out of your own pocket at lease-end.
