A dealer in the Albany NY area is offering the following deal. This is the NY version of a lease called a balloon loan, or "Smart Buy". You own the vehicle. $349 per month for 48 months, 12,000 miles per year. $ 2500.00 down, plus tax title and drivers fees. the balloon payment at the end is 16,804.18. Buyer has the option to purchase or return the vehicle. They claim to have 20 in stock, Base, limited, and 7 passenger. I am seeking feedback as to if this is a good deal, and any other comments.

Replying to: harvpt (Aug 04, 2005 8:17 am) You have not stated what model or equippment comes on the Tribeca at that price. Howevr, based on the info provided your total payments over 48 months comes to over $36,000 not couning sales tax, title and fees. If that is a nicely equipped model it might be decent. However, always ask what the capitalized cost of the vehicle is and the interest rate or money factor. If you use Edmunds or Kelly Blue Book you can find the dealers cost with the options being quoted and that will tell you how much profit the dealer is making. |

will be getting the tribeca 7 pass ltd with nav and dvd and puddle lights. adding tow package, front hood protector, mudflaps and aero roof rack. I received the tribeca at invoice and the accessories as msrp but install will be free and since I purchased at the same time with the vehicle it will be on the factory warranty and not a separate accessories warranty. took two trips to get the price down to where i felt comfortable with the deal. sometimes you need to walk away from the deal. i hate how all dealers drag it out until 9 pm closing time hoping you will just say .. I'll take the deal. it was 2 hrs of negotiating and then the next day they came down another $600 to close the deal.... but i had to walk away that night first  trade in was $100 less then edmund is showing for trade-in value for my SUV. so essentially I paid them about $100 plus say $500 over invoice if all the accesories were already on the vehicle at invoice. but like I said they need to install the tow hitch and oil cooler, the roof rack, mudflaps, and front hood protector for that price. and I got a becca with every option I wanted and none that i didnt. such as the front lower bumper protector and also did not buy the stupid cargo cover. so what do you guys think? good deal? |

Not sure what their invoice was but figure they are getting about 40% margin on the extended warranty. I got the 4 yr/60k with Zero deductable GOLD plan which covers everything the factory warranty for $600. MSRP is $800. |

I think so, congrats. Some have paid more that that, even after a lot of shopping. Demand varies by region. -juice |

I just put a deposit down for a blue/beige 7pass ltd. I'm from Brooklyn, NY. Dealer said the price is $100 over invoice. The invoice price he quoted (and shown me from a booklet) for the car is $35,923. He said that includes destination charge. However from Edmunds, invoice for the car is $34,796+$625 destination which comes out to $35601. Why the difference? I got the following options as well for a total of $37,016 Trailer hitch/transmission cooler crossbar auto-dimming mirror all weather mat luggage compartment cover cargo tray wheel locks puddle light (after reading the posts)

We were just quoted this price on a 5 passenger limited, no extras. We live in NY so it's not a traditional lease, it's a balloon payment at the end. $352.53/month which the salesman says is a 4.7% interest rate 36 month, 12,000 miles $2500 down plus fees ($67) and taxes ($2,242) buy out is $20,856 Purchase price, according to the dealer, is $32,025 which is basically MSRP I'm not convinced this is such a good deal. Advice needed! |

Replying to: harvpt (Aug 08, 2005 4:40 pm) Second of all, nobody pays MSRP, lease or not. You should always bargain the purchase price first. Look at the monthly payment is the easiest way of getting ripped off. |
