I was about the pull the trigger on a lease deal on forester X premium on Sunday, but decided to wait until the new incentives came out. Anyone done any shopping lately? I was at $600 out the door with $320 including taxes. I bet I could have gotten a little less, but Im think I can beat that to zero down and under 299 this month. Anyone?

If you can, negotiate with whoever has the power to make the decision. And be willing to walk away if you don't get the deal you want. Remember, there are lots of other dealers out there, and probably at least one of them will want your business at your price (as long as it is reasonable). Good luck. |

Thanks for your valuable input! So call me crazy with this next statement.... I could sign a 3 year lease, keep it low, with close to nothing down, but keep a higher residual. Why? My theory is that cars that get 20/25 mpg or high in today's market, will be obsolete in 3 years because of technology. The 40mpg car is probably around the corner. I would *not* want the option purchase the car at the end of th lease because: - technology has changed from 2009 to 2012 - our own reasons such as family has grown, or jobs changed or even relocation. For bartering purposes at the table, I *could* throw out on the table a higher residual and that would in fact lower my monthly payments? Thanks much!!
