Also, GMAC paid off 5 months on our 2004 Explorer Lease (i.e. $2000)...

Hi Susan. I personally would not be willing to waste two payments on my current lease to take advantage of the December program, but it is difficult to say if General Motors' new January incentive program will be as attractive as the $2,145 bonus cash that it is offering on this truck now. If you have decided to wait, please feel free to check back with me in a couple of days and I will be happy to give you an idea of what this truck's new incentive program is like.

Thanks for the advice, car man. I usually find your info helpful, but my question was posted on Nov 29th and you didn't respond until Jan 2nd. I thought maybe this whole forum was inactivated or something.
 
I have one more lease payment left (Jan)on my current vehicle. I have until Feb 17 to turn the car over. I would love to know about any SRX lease incentives then. I'll keep checking and hopefully find something more timely, as the end is definitely near for me! Susan

Wow, your last three vehicles, huh? You're making me feel old . General Motors is not providing lease support any more. If you want to lease this vehicle, you would be better off going with a 2007 model. Through January 2nd, GMAC's base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Cadillac SRX V6 with 15,000 miles per year are 4.95% and 52%, respectively. General Motors is scheduled to introduce its new January incentive and lease programs tomorrow. I would be happy to give you am idea of what its new promotions for this truck are like if you're interested.

Congratulations on your new truck, lars1281. Thanks for taking the time to share the details of your deal with everyone. Real world examples like the one that you posted are very helpful for consumers who are shopping for new vehicles. Enjoy your new ride.

Hey Car_man,
I wanted to ask another question. When it comes time to turn in the vehicle.....1. if you want to keep the vehicle, how is the amount determined that you will pay? Are payments involved or one lump sum to the dealer.
2. what happens if you do not have such a large amount of money to pay off the car....do you just lease another vehicle?
3. What happens if your credit was ruined during your lease agreement? If you paid the car dealer on time, will they consider this or is your overall credit checked once again when considering leasing another vehicle?

Hey policelady. Vehicles' lease-end purchase prices are based upon the residual value that was used to calculate the depreciation portion of their monthly payments. You should be able to find out what your vehicle's purchase option price is by looking at your lease contract. This is the most that it will cost you to purchase your vehicle at the end of your lease. I say most because banks will occasionally negotiate the lease-end purchase prices of vehicles. Place a call to GMAC, or whichever bank you are leasing your SRX through a few weeks before the scheduled end of your lease to see if they will be willing to work with you. More often than not banks won't, but you don't have anything to lose by asking.
 
If you do not have a large sum of money available to purchase your vehicle at the end of your lease you can either finance it or just walk away from your lease and lease or purchase a new vehicle.
 
Every bank uses its own set of guidelines to determine who it will and will not approve to lease vehicles. Domestic manufacturers' captive finance companies, like GMAC, are usually fairly lenient in who they approve. If you have a good payment history with GMAC I suspect that you would have to really mess up your credit during your lease for them not to approve you to lease another vehicle through them.

New SRX Lease by susanw6
Jan 23, 2007 (12:00 pm)

I am negotiating a lease for a 2007 V6 SRX with utility pkg (3rd row) and adjustable foot pedals. First, Do I need to purchase the $4100 premium package in order to get the adjustable pedals, or can I purchase the $1300 premium collection to get it?
 
Also, with $2000 out-of-pocket, 36 or 39 months , 15k miles/year and excellent credit, what is a good monthly payment? I was hoping to get it in the low 500's-maybe $525. Is this realistic?

Here is the deal I signed...
2007 V6 SRX w/Premium package ($4100) and utility package ($1125), in White Diamond.
 
MSRP is $43,455.
I put down $2000 in GM Mastercard rewards
39 month lease w/15,000 miles/year
$470.00 per month, plus tax for a grand total of $498.20.
 
They had others that were $40 more per month, but they said this one was an "older age model", meaning it was one of the first few they got in from Detroit in October, so there was some add'l rebate Cadillac was providing them on it.
 
My only concern was that it had 130 miles on it and I've never bought or leased a new car with more than 15 miles on it. I made them check the computer to see how those miles got there and when it arrived at the dealership on Oct 24, it already had the 130 miles (I actually saw this). They said it was not a dealerhisp transfer, nor a demo. They said that maybe it was used as a test model by the factory. Never believing anything a dealership says, I'm skeptical, however, I still think I got a good deal and since its a lease, as opposed to a purchase, I'm O.K. with it.
 
Anyone ever heard of that?

Hi susanw6. I am not personally all that familiar with the Cadillac SRX's option packages, but you may be able to find a community member who is by visiting the following discussion: "Cadillac SRX".
 
You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the SRX 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 truck'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 work up a sample lease payment on the car that you are interested in for you if you let me know what these numbers are.
