Just follow the same steps as I did below and you should get a similar deal. My out of pocket is $1500 (first months pymt + Acquistion fee of $700 + doc fee + tag fee). You might be able to roll some of this into the lease if needed, but do NOT put any money down as cap cost reduction.
 
1) Go to CarMax.com (they sell new cars also) and pull up a new 2007 300C SRT8 (LA, Atlanta and Orlando are their Chrysler locations). You will see that CarMax is offering the 2007 SRT8's at around $5000 off MSRP.
2) Send the CarMax quote to your local dealers. Tell them to match or beat this price (amount off MSRP).
3) Once they match or beat the price, use the links below to calculate your payment. Ensure that the dealer does NOT mark up the money factor and gets you the correct residual. The 12K residual is 2% above the 15K residual.
 
I completed the above steps in about two days and got a great deal.

Are those lease rates accurate as compared to what chrysler finance is offering? Thanks.

Those lease rates I posted are exactly what Chrysler is offering in January. I received this rate when I leased my 2007 300C SRT8 this week. Also, Chrysler's lease acq fee is $700.

Money factor by jdivers

Hello! Well my Ford Edge fell through and while the one they ordered me is being built I really started looking at these too. I called and got a quote for a 07 Touring Signiture series and the money factor seemed really high (especially compared to Ford, for almost the same car the payments were about $130 more). What is the current money factor for a 39 & 48 month lease?
And what should my payments be for:
MSRP- 30,925 Selling- 27,934
MSRP- 29,680 Selling- 26,799
 
I will owe about $2500 on my trade and was going to put $2000+fees down.
 
Also, do you know of any 3rd party leasing companies that have decent lease rates?
 
Thanks!

Wow, congratulations on getting such a large discount on your Chrysler 300, andre1. For some reason, I have always liked this car...and you got the SRT-8! Enjoy your new ride and don't get any speeding tickets .

Hi jdivers. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2007 Chrysler 300 Touring 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00273 and 52%, respectively. Don't bother looking at a 48 month lease of this car, its 4 year program is terrible. When negotiating your lease on this car, make sure to take the $1,000 lease cash that DaimlerChrysler is currently providing on it into account. It will help you to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost. I am not aware of any independent banks that have attractive lease programs on this car right now.

Car_man - Can you please tell me the current money factor and residual value for a 300C (with Nav or without) for a 36 or 39 month lease at 18,000 mile per year? Any other advice you have on leasing this car would be appreciated.

I'd be happy to help you out, Matt. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Chrysler 300C (regardless of whether it has navigation) with 15,000 miles per year are .00223 and 52%, respectively. The money factor for an otherwise identical 39 month lease would be the same, but the residual value would drop to 51%. 15,000 miles per year is the highest mileage allowance that Chrysler Financial publishes residual values for. If you need to drive more then this, you will have to purchase additional miles on a per-mile basis. It is less expensive to do so at lease signing than it is to wait until lease-end and have to pay an excess mileage penalty. When negotiating your lease on this car, make sure to take advantage of the $1,500 lease cash that is currently available on it. It will help you to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost for your lease.

This site was very helpful for me in my buying process. Here are my numbers:
 
2007 Chrysler 300C with Nav & soundgroup 2, sunroof, UConnect, wood trim, & luxury group 2.
MSRP $39,500
Invoice $36,544
Purchase Price $34,200
Lease for 39 months at 18k per year
$530 including tax.
 
I probably could have got if for a little less, but I am happy with the deal. O'Neil Chrysler in Raleigh was very easy to work with. I walked on the lot and had this deal in 15 minutes.
