Re: sales tax in Texas [Car_man] by dhamilton

O.K.
 I called the Texas state comptroller's office. When leasing a vehicle in Texas you pay 6.25% on the whole vehicle, not just on the leased part. I'm not sure what changed as far as the previous posts that mentioned some sort of Texas tax change. It definatly was not the tax on the whole vehicle part. That bumps up the payment on a base MDX 50 freakin bucks. THAT STINKS. Hope this helps..Dan

Good deal on FX35? by suvindc
Apr 19, 2005 (5:57 am)
I am interested in leasing a 2005 Infiniti FX35 (with sport package and cargo protector). I have spoken to several different dealerships via email or the phone. Before I start talking money factor and residuals, I've been trying to get an out the door quote of some sort. The most recent quote was $41,250. According to the Internet Manager this includes the final figure plus taxes (I live in VA), tags, and the processing fee. According to Edmunds, the MSRP for this same vehicle and the options I stated is $39,080. Therefore, is $41,250 after taxes, tags, and fees a good deal?

2005 Audi A6 - Need advice by ca_man
Apr 19, 2005 (6:25 am)
Fellow netizens ,
 
Audi currently has a decent deal on the A6 , .00129 MF base and 56% Residual for 36 months .... plus $1500 rebate for Audi loyalty.
We are in no hurry to buy though. I have been shopping around on the internet, and the questions I have are :
Is it worth waiting for next month's lease rates ?
What is the typical direction for lease rates at this point in a brand new car's life cycle ?
 
Thanks in advance !

Infiniti G35 Coupe 6MT Lease in MD by nathann
Apr 19, 2005 (6:36 am)
Car_Man, can you figure out a least payment for me?
36 month lease, 15k/year, MSRP of $37k, selling of $34,632, money factor of .00215, residual of 60%. Normal fees and such, with a security deposit.
 
Also, and more subjectively, do these numbers sound fairly decent? Thanks for all your help!

Altima Residual by thrawn
Apr 19, 2005 (7:06 am)
Carman,
 
I just spoke to a dealer who told me that the Altima 2.5S with the SL package, 24 month lease and 12k miles, has a residual of 67% vs. a residual of 69% for the base model. Is this true? Other dealers haven't mentioned this, but this guy seemed to be honest with me on other details. Can you confirm?
 
Thanks much,
 
Sean
 
PS - all dealers I have spoken to so far have told me that Nissan is waiving the $795 security deposit this month. Not sure if this is for all models and all lease types, but I'm looking at a 24 month and they say they won't increase the MF even though there's no sec. dep. Thought others might be interested in that.

Car_man, I'm looking for information on a 3 year 15,000 miles per year lease on a Highlander Limited 2WD. I'm hoping they'll bring it back at 60%, is that logical? I've seen factors like .0085 on the tier I and a little lower on the tier 1+. But I'd like to know for sure when I take my 2002 Highlander back in off of lease and get another one.

Hi, Car_man
 
That's really helpful. Thank you so much.
 
The MSRP $30120 (including all options I want)
The invoice $28947 (including all options)
The $25847 is the target price from carsdirect.com (including all options)
 
Car_man, could you tell where I should start to minus the $3000cash back?
From invoice price or the target buying price?
 
Forgive my dumb question. Residual is calculated based on MSRP price, right?
 
I really appreciate your help.

05 G35x w/ Premium Package C by kurb
Apr 19, 2005 (8:02 am)
Carman,,
 
What would my payment be on an 05 G35x automatic w/ Premium Package C at a sale price of 33,917 including docs and fees. I'm in NJ so sales tax would be 6%. The lease deal is for 39 months at 15k per year. I have been quoted .018% MF and 57% Residual.. do these numbers sound right..? They are also paying off $500 of my previous lease... And do you think it will be beneficial to wait until next weekend to do the deal since it is the last weekend of the month.. will I do better

Carman,
 
I'm considering leasing an 05 Pacifica for 39 months (dealership said this was their most attractive option) for 12k miles per year. What is the base money factor and residual?

I am trying to use the Lease calculator to see what they would have to bring the car down to for me to have my monthly payments at or under $300. How do I plug the lease special numbers into this calculator. The special does not show a %.
