Carman - Please analyze this completed Lease by rlsmith2212

I have acquired a 2007 Fusion SE base model with an MSRP of $19705. We have signed up to Z Plan Lease with no up front money out of pocket. Licence, Registration, Acquisition Fee, Sales Tax, 1st Payment either in the cap cost or taken from the $1000. Rebate.
 
The FMC Lease is 39 months, 12000 miles with 39 payments of $259.16.
 
Note: $595 Acq Fee added to agreed upon value for a Total Gross Capitalization Cost of $18402.25. The $1000 rebate was used as : Cap Cost Reduction $492.45, 1st Payment $259.16, Registration Fee $80.50(Tennessee), Upfront tax on cap reduction $167.89.
 
The Residual Value used (line d. on Lease Agreement) is $9458.40 or 48 % of MSRP - Is that correct for a 39 Month lease? The dealer (Lance Cunningham Ford Knoxville, Tn) said the Interest Rate was 2% and Residual 50% 0n 12K/36 Mo. I forgot to ask about Residual on 39 Mo.

Car Man,
 
My folks are interested in leasing a Fusion. They currently lease a Taurus and the lease on that expires in September of this year. The dealer where they leased the Taurus called them and calimed that there is some sort of "Early bird" buyout and "offered" to get them into a new Fusion with no money down and a monthly payment of $339.00 for 38 months. They also offered to pay 3 of the reamining 4 lease payments. (My folks would still have to pay the final lease payment of about $290)
 
The car the dealer quoted is an '07 Fusion SE 6 cylinder with AWD. I don't have the exact sticker price but I think it was about $24,300. Based on what I'm reading in this blog it seems very high? Advice please

Hello Mark. Here's the information that your sister is looking for. Ford Credit's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Fusion SEL V6 AWD with 15,000 miles per year are 2.0% and 49%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are 2.25% and 47%. When negotiating her lease on this car, your sister needs to make sure that she is taking advantage of the $1,000 lease cash that Ford is currently providing on it.

Hi carner1. What your parents were told is correct. Ford is running an "early bird" early lease termination program for Ford Credit lessees who want to lease a Fusion right now. This program will only waive up to three remaining lease payments, so as they were told your parents would have to make their final one. That is unless they wait until they make one more payment to lease their new Fusion. This program is scheduled to run through July 2nd, so if they can wait another couple of weeks they may be able to get all of their remaining payments waived.
 
I would be happy to give you my opinion on what this car should cost your parents to lease right now. I just need you to provide me with the MSRP and approximate selling price, or at least the dealer invoice price, of the exact car that your parents want. You can find that information in the following section of this site: Edmunds.com - New Vehicle Pricing. Let me know what these numbers are and I'll do some calculations for you.

Hello Mike. You never mentioned the selling price of the Fusion that you are interested in leasing. This is an important number 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 the price of the car that you want to lease you don't know how good a price you are getting it for. The second reason is that one needs the selling price of a vehicle that they want to lease is that it is necessary to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion of this deal if you let me know what its selling price is.

Hi buckeighty. The dealer invoice of the car that you are interested in is $18,788. So you are getting the Fusion that you want for below invoice minus the $1,000 lease cash that is currently available on it. Plus the dealer is using Ford Credit's base lease rate to calculate your car's monthly payment. This looks like an excellent deal to me. If you like the car, go for it.

August lease numbers by keeferb

Hi Car_man,
 
Can you get me the residual and money factor numbers for an '07 Fusion V6 AWD(SE and SEL if different)? 3 yr/45k. I am eligible for Ford's fleet pricing(aka X-Plan) and it looks like there is a $1500 retail lease cash rebate + $500 X-plan rebate available).
 
We were going to wait for an '08, but depending on the resid/money factor the '07 might be a better deal. Just out of curiousity, do you have any idea what the resid/money factor were for the '07 models last year when they came out?
 
Thanks in advance.
