| What is the deal with this site? I saw them advertised online on Magazine (C&D or MT) Website ... is this a scam? | |

Replying to: alphawolf (Apr 18, 2005 6:10 am) I took a look at leasecompare when I saw your note. It looks pretty cool, but I think their purchase prices are a little on the high side ... It would probably be excellent for creating a baseline though.

I am getting a lease offer that consists of the following: 2005 G35 coupe, automatic with premium package MSRP is $35610.00 selling price is $33409.00 36 months/12000 residual value is 61%, cap cost reduction is $2085, aquisition fee is $915, money factor is 0.00188 Car is in california with 8.25 tax. The dealer is saying that monthly payments come out to $425, but I am getting different numbers from various online calculators. Any advice? Is this a good deal? Why are my numbers different from the dealer's numbers? Thanks Arthur

Please help. Car_man: Do you know the residual and money factor of 2005 Saab 9-3 Linear Sedan? Is it too harsh to ask for an offer like this: 2005 Saab 9-3 Linear + auto. trans. + moon roof With $3000 cash(down payment+bank fee+first month payment) $270/month for 2 year lease with 12000miles/year. Thanks a lot in advance. |

Hey Car_man: Need to know if I am getting a good deal on a lease for the G35 Coupe. 39 months with 12K per year. MSRP is $36,260 for the base car plus premium pkg P01 and the 18" Tire Pkg. T01. Dealer will charge me $33,620 which is $400 over invoice. I am putting one month down ($467) and a $795 Bank Fee. The residual is $21,918 and the money factor is .00215. I don't know if the money factor is the best that Infiniti can do. How can I find out? New York state sales tax is 8.75% but that should only be on the difference between the dealer price quoted and the residual right? Dealer also says there I have to pay sales tax on the Bank Fee is this correct? They are waiving the security deposit. The monthly payment is $467. Do you think the dealer can do better? Thanks, Bonnie |

Hi Car-Man- The MSRP is $29,500 - the dealer is taking $2500 off so the selling price is $27, 000. Again, I would like a lease price with $1000 down , 36 months/12K miles the Nissan Exterra SE is loaded and the only additions would be splash guards, bumper guards and side rails- Please advise on a lease price. thanks

Replying to: Car_man (Apr 18, 2005 3:35 am) The MSRP is $48,570.00. Selling price is $42,800.00. I would like to lease for 36 months  15K miles per year. Thanks again, Pluvious |

Has anyone had any luck negotiating a good price for this vehicle? Dennis, you are quite the experienced Honda guy. What would you recommend as far as how to approach this lease considering that there are only 3 of these cars in the Southeast! I would be negotiating through email. I sure would like my complete share of the current $750 incentive and to get as far below invoice as possible. I have the base MF=.00113 and 36/12k residual at 52%. Thanks for everyone's thoughts on this. mister22

Hello Car-Man, Was hoping you could look at my lease questions from post 19159. here it is again... I am looking at the 2006 GS300 or 2005 LS430 and am trying to find out what the best lease should be for each. For the GS300 the best I have seen in So. Cal is: MSRP: $50,209 Sell Price: $47,995 Residual: $21,589 Money Factor: 0.0017 Term: 48 months Miles: 15,000 / year Down Payment: $2,000 Lease: $666 + Tax Also wanted to see 36 months but don't know residual. For the '05 LS430 I saw the following post from 12/2004 and am wondering if this is realistic or I might even be able to do better from a sell price or money factor. MSRP: $62,489 Sell Price: $54,552 Residual: $35,562 Money Factor: 0.00188 Term: 36 months Miles: 12,000 / year Down Payment: $1,662 (1st payment+$200 down payment+$495 dealer fee+ some additional fees) Monthly Payment: $738 (including 6% tax) Finally, what would I expect to add for 15,000 miles/year? Thanks, Don |

Hi dpj. Neither of the lease money factors that you mentioned in your post jibe with what I have seen for the 2006 GS300 or 2005 LS430. Did you get that info from this forum or were you quoted those numbers from a dealer. It is possible that these are quotes for leases through a bank other than Lexus Financial Services. If they are through LFS, I can tell you that increasing your mileage allowance from 12,000 miles per year to 15,000 would decrease these vehicles' residual values by 2%.
