Replying to: dwynne (Mar 30, 2005 8:51 am) My credit scores are in the high 500's and low 600's. The reason it is so bad is because of a recent Bankruptcy. My boyfriend has scores in the high 600's and low 700's. With our scores combined we are in tier 3. We do have the $4500 to put down because i sold my old car for $2000 and we have the other $2500. For us the monthly payment being low is a huge help because we are moving and the lower the better until we are stable in the new state, if you know what i mean. We will need the car for the new state thats why we HAD to buy it. Where i live right now a car is not really necessary but in the new state it is. Based on everything so far what do you think of the lease deal? I just want to make sure im not getting taken advantage of... Thanks so much!

Replying to: ar831 (Mar 30, 2005 9:34 am) I checked on the leasecompare site using a score of 600 and with nothing down (getting the car below cost) the payment would be $443/month for 36 months. With a lot down (close to $4k) the payment was $339 a month for 36 months. Money factor was 0.00570 (ouch). So in light of that, the payment you quoted for 36 months does not sound that bad. Dennis |

| My CLK320 lease is up in Novemeber and I was thinking that I would buy my next car because I am onw a consultant and the job is a lot more tenuous than my previous fulltime positions. Someone told me that there was insurance available that would pay off your lease if you lost your job. Can someone point me to someplace where I can get more information on this? Is it expensive? Does it affect your credit rating if it happens? Thanks very much. | |

Hi, I have a couple leasing questions on the 2005 Honda Accord EX, 4-door, 4 cyl, with leather and navi. The MSRP is $27,115, and the price a dealer in Cleveland, OH gave me was $25,750. The residual value he gave me on a 3-yr, 15,000 mile lease is $14,099. On the MSRP, that comes out to a Residual Value of 52%. Doesn't that sound low? And if so, what should it be? In addition, do you calculate the residual value off the MSRP or the price the dealer gives you? Finally, what's the going money factor for a 3-yr. lease on this vehicle? Thanks. |

Replying to: kh08 (Mar 30, 2005 11:06 am)  This is from February - the last time someone asked. car_man said: "Here is the information that you are looking for, ereynihc. If you were to lease a 2005 Infiniti FX35 AWD through Infiniti Financial Services right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00179 and 60%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2004 model should be .00163 and 58%. Car_man Host Smart Shopper Forum" |

My mom is new to leasing and she's intersted in the following cars. I was wondering if I could get some residuals and MFs assuming 3yrs/36k for these cars: 2005 BMW 325i Auto (there's also $2500 rebates!) 2005 Volvo S40 2.4i Auto 2005 Volvo S40 T5 FWD Auto 2005 Toyota Prius (I know you've said the residuals are low and incentives few, but mom really likes this car) |

Do you have to pay freight when you are leasing a vehicle, or only when you are purchasing one? Thanks |
