#35 of 51 any way to get this info? by qbrozen Mar 16, 2007 (6:49 am)
Dealer still has an '06 RT (RWD) sitting on his lot. Beautiful car! Anyway, he made the comment that there is big rebates on it to get rid of it.   If it were cheap enough, I might be interested in a 24-month lease. Are MF and residuals still available on the '06? If so, I'd appreciate it if someone could provide them.   I'd also like to know what rebates to expect. Carsdirect still shows '06s on their site for $4k under invoice. Is that correct? Or is there more money to be had?   Thanks! Replies to this message: Car_man (Apr 12, 2007 2:24 am) qbrozen (Apr 12, 2007 7:15 am)

Replying to: qbrozen (Mar 16, 2007 6:49 am) Hey qbrozen. One can still lease a 2006 model through Chrysler Financial, but its lease program for leftover '06 models is pretty bad right now. It is no longer providing lease money factor support on them, so anyone who leases one through it has to use its standard lease money factors. Furthermore, it is so late in the model year that the residual values have fallen to very low levels. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2006 Dodge Magnum RT with 15,000 miles per year are .00332 and 36%, respectively.   If I was in the market for an '06 Dodge Magnum, I personally would take advantage of the special financing program and finance it at 0% for 6 years or use the $4,000 customer cash that is available on it to negotiate a very low selling price and finance it through an independent bank.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum Replies to this message: qbrozen (Apr 12, 2007 7:15 am)

Replying to: Car_man (Apr 12, 2007 2:24 am) i gave up on the idea... but 36%!!!! after 2 years???!!! OMG! OK, ok, so its basically 3 years since it is so late already ... or 3.5 years. But still, how great would it be to get a 30k mile Magnum RT for a third of its original price. That's like $10k! Maybe $12k-$13k retail. I just don't see that happening. I'd LOVE for it to happen so I can get one real cheap ... but it won't.
#38 of 51 Residual on Upcoming Lease End by hardhawk Apr 12, 2007 (1:08 pm)
Car Man:   I leased a 2005 Magnum RT back in October of 2004 for 3 years, 15,000 miles per year. It looks like now the residuals on this car are in the toilet. My question to you is "How do I get Chrysler Financial to reduce the end of lease sale price if I want to buy the car?" The lease residual in my lease is about 52%. I might want to buy the car off lease if I can get them to sell it below the lease residual value. Any comments and advice would be greatly appreciated. I love the car.

Replying to: hardhawk (Apr 12, 2007 1:08 pm) All ya gotta do is give them a call and start talkin' turkey.   But don't put yourself in a pressure cooker. Call well before the end of your lease. At least 2 months, I'd say. Replies to this message: hardhawk (Apr 13, 2007 10:38 am) jharwood (Sep 23, 2009 5:52 pm)

Replying to: qbrozen (Apr 13, 2007 8:45 am) I found that the residual for a 2007 Magnum RT RWD on a 36 month lease with 12,000 miles a year is 42%. The residual for a 24 month lease on a leftover 2006 is 36% for an essentially 3 year old car at lease end. So, with mine being 52% for a 15,000 mile/yr lease I should be able to get them down hopefully below 40%. If I can do that, I will probably buy the car as it would make the overall lease then buy deal better than it would have been to buy it new in 2004 and finance. I had that happen on a 2 year lease on a 1998 Dodge Ram pickup. Leased it for 2 years with a incredible low monthly payment then got them down $4000 on the residual so I bought it then. My lease is not up until October so I will start communicating with them in August if I do not hear from them by then. Replies to this message: jharwood (Sep 23, 2009 5:52 pm)

Replying to: davmagnum (Aug 15, 2007 11:44 am) Leases on used vehicles are not usually cost effective..   In general, you could borrow $14K for 60 months, and your payment would be around $300/mo., asssuming decent credit.   regards, kyfdx
