Looking at FX35s in Minneapolis/St. Paul MN area. There are a couple of dealerships here. Anyone out there buy in my area? Good/Bad experiences/differences??

| I'm also looking to purchase in this area, but not till the 05's come out. Will let you know what dealer and experience. If you purchase before then please post your experience. | |

I'm planning to lease a FX35 and I'm at a loss at figuring whether a deal is good or not. With the info from this forum I'm confident I'll be able to get a good deal if I'm buying the FX outright but with a lease there are just way too many variables: lease term, cap cost, mileage, residual value, actual negotiated price, all these things can vary. It's much more difficult to do comparison shopping for a lease. One dealer told me that if I'm leasing then it doesn't matter whether I'm getting a 04 or a 05 since the monthly payment will be about the same. I found that hard to believe. Does the negotiated price matters when you are leasing? Is there some kind of formulae that will give you what the monthly payment should be given the variables mentioned above. What kind of monthly payment should I expect for a 39mth lease, $3000 cap reduction and 12k miles/year on a FX35 with touring and tech pkg. Thanks in advance for your help. |

Replying to: Firebird_EOU (Aug 23, 2004 2:54 am) These are purchase rates. The lease rate for 39 months is 0.00179 money factor which is equivalent to about 4.3% interest. "Shouldnt 05 have something new?" Two major changes for 2005 is the availibility of the lane departure warning system and a new blue colour. |

Replying to: quattro (Aug 23, 2004 1:16 am) Lets look at this first. 2005 pricing isn't known to anyone at dealer level yet. Also, there are dealer incentives on 2004 FX35s that mean they can be sold at, or under, invoice. There won't be any on the 2005 models. All in all, I'm with you on this one; very hard to believe. OK, lets look at the lease on this. The car you're looking at has an MSRP of around $43840 (assuming AWD) and an invoice of $39940. You should be able to get it for at least invoice. Using this as the cap. cost and using a MF of 0.00179 (standard IFS for this car at the moment ) and a residual of 55% we get a pre-tax monthly of $470. This includes your $3000 down. Hope this helps. |
