I'm looking for a 12,000 mile 36 month lease, and here in NJ, I was just offered with the December to Remember special: 52,XXX sticker price, and with $0 down, tax included, only out of pocket expense is First Month Payment, Tire Tax, and Motor Vehicle Registration. The price was: $720/month. Sound like a good deal? Closest I got was $749/month PLUS 800 Doc Fee, 500 Bank Fee, First Month Payment, etc. Thanks!

Never lease a car.

Not the most helpful- or wisest- response. There are many reasons to lease a car, and you can find them all very well explained on this site. If you are one to buy and drive cars for quite some time, then it of course makes sense to purchase. If you tend to enjoy driving a new vehicle every few years, leasing would end up being the most cost effective way to indulge.

I think there are better deals out there. Well, I hope there are because I plan to lease a GX470 also during the event. I scanned this forum and the GX470 leasing forum for last year's event. I believe hoggolfer landed the best deal last year at $565/month with only a $600 acquisition fee. He did use multiple security deposits to lower the money factor. More details can be found in the GX 470 lease forum; use the search forum feature with a keyword of December. Hoggolfer, along with many other people last year, were getting near invoice acquisition costs. During last year's event, Lexus offered lease support, marketing support, and taxes paid. I don't know the details for this year yet. I posted a request in the GX 470 lease forum.

I found an 06 GX470 with Navigation and Mark Levinson sound but NOT the rear entertainment DVD for $42,500. It has only 9,000 miles and 26 months or 50,000 miles left on the warranty. Thoughts?

From my research, that seems like a good deal, assuming the car is in like-new condition.

Well, I personally think leasing is a waste of money, but leasing a 45K car is just stupid. Almost any financial adviser will say the same. Gosh, they even teach that in high school.

Not to go too off topic or create a disagreement, but again that's not entirely true. Without knowing the residual and MF on the GX470, I couldn't hazard a guess as to whether it makes sense to lease. Lexus typically doesn't have great lease deals on cars other than the ES and maybe another one or two, and with a car with the reliability history of Lexus it certainly would make more sense to buy if you could do so.
 
That being said, the price of the car doesn't have a ton to do with whether it makes sense to lease. Often the captive financial companies of the vehicles artificially increase numbers in order to move them on leases.
 
For example, the 5 series BMW is a very good car to lease instead of buy. BMW's out of warranty can be extremely expensive, and the residual values of those cars on three year leases are 60%, meaning that the difference between buying and leasing in terms of $ are extreme....and then you aren't saddled with several K expenses out of warranty. Just an example.
 
$ for $ for someone who is going to own a car for many years? No-brainer that buying is a better option. But leasing does have advantages.
