#868 of 907 2006 Pacifica lease by ski7304

I have been communicating w/ a dealership via email for a few days about a 2006 Pacifica lease. This particular dealership located in Maple Shade, NJ has a few 2006's left which I figured I could get a better deal on. I am going there tomorrow to look at them but before I go I would like to be prepared. Can you tell me what the lease money factor and residual value is for a 2006 Awd & Fwd w/ 15,000 miles and for 30 & 36 months. Also, I am currently in a lease w/ GMAC w/ 10 mos left. This Chysler dealership told me they could terminate my lease, how should I negotiate that? Thanks!!!!

Hi 18tgls. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica Touring FWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00100 and 47%, respectively. Plus it is providing $1,000 lease cash on 5 passenger and $1,500 on 6 passenger versions of it. Make sure to take this lease cash into account when negotiating your Pacifica's capitalized cost.

Hello freddiej. You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the Pacifica that you are interested in leasing. These are important numbers for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing this vehicle's selling price in relation to its MSRP you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on it. The second reason is that one needs the selling price and MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion of this deal if you let me know what these numbers are.

Hi ski7304. DaimlerChrysler is no longer providing lease support on 2006 models. If you were to lease one through Chrysler Financial right now, you would have to use its standard lease program, which is not very good. If you want to lease, you probably would be better off going with a 2007 model.
 
As far as getting out of your current lease goes, DaimlerChrysler often runs an early lease termination program that lets current Chrysler Financial lessees out of their leases early. However, this program usually only waives three lease payments or so. Chances are that getting out of your current lease ten months early is going to cost you money out of your own pocket. If you don't have to pay it at lease signing, you almost certainly will have some of your remaining lease payments rolled into your new lease. You would probably be better off waiting until you are closer to the scheduled end of your current lease to get a new vehicle.

Hi ... My Grand Carvan is coming off lease in may/june. I'm thinking of leasing a 2007 pacifica touring model. The dealer is trying to get me to return early. The current Chrysler incentives expire 2/38/07. Do you think there will be any better incentives or should I jump on the current ones ?
 
Thanks !

Hi flunkie. It is difficult to say what DaimlerChrysler's March incentives will be like for the Pacifica. If I had to make an educated guess, I'd say that they will probably be around the same as they are right now. Again though no one, not even dealers, knows exactly what the March programs will be like yet.

Car_man:
 
My lease is coming up shortly and I'm thinking about getting another Pacifica, either a Base FWD or Touring FWD.
 
Can you give me an idea of what current money factors and residuals are on those models? I'm most likely to do 36 or 39 months, 12k miles per year, but it seems like Chrysler has been pushing 27 month, 10.5k miles and I'd be curious to know if those numbers are appealing.
 
Thanks in advance!

Here's the information that you're looking for, mick0212. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica Base 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00127 and 44$, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00140 and 43%.
 
If you were to lease a 2007 Chrysler Pacifica Touring 2WD through Chrysler Financial right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value would be .00124 and 44%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00137 and 43%.
 
I don't think that Chrysler Financial's 27 month lease program is any more attractive than the 36 and 39 month programs. Its residual values for leases with only 10,500 miles per year would be 1% higher, so the lease payments with that mileage allowance would be slightly lower.
 
When negotiating your lease on the Pacifica that you want, make sure to take the $1,500 lease cash that DaimlerChrysler is providing on '07 Pacifica 5 Passenger and $2,000 on Pacifica 6 Passenger models into account. It will help you to to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost for your lease.

Car_man,
 
Have seen your posts and your seem very well informed. We are looking to lease a Pacifica AWD, 36 mo./15k a year. What kind of incentives are currently being offered? Live on Long Island. We are looking to turn in our current leased Pacific about 3 months early and have been told by one dealer they will take care of the early termination at no cost to us. Any customer loyalty incentives on top of whatever else is on offer? Also, what is the money factor and residual for our expected term? Many thanks for any info.

Thanks Nportcarguy. DaimlerChrysler is currently providing $2,000 lease cash on 5 passenger and $2,500 on 6 passenger Pacificas. In addition to this lease cash, there is a $1,000 lease loyalty offer. As far as this vehicle's lease program goes, if you were to lease a base 2007 Chrysler Pacifica AWD through Chrysler Financial right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00177 and 42%, respectively.
