Hi Ashley. Since you are new to leasing, you definitely should check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com prior to visiting any dealers: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.
 
In short, the best way to get a good deal on a leased vehicle is to negotiate as low a selling price as possible and then have the dealer calculate your monthly payment using the vehicle's base lease rate. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. If I was in the market for a Ford Fusion right now, I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice...which really amounts to several hundred dollars under invoice when the lease cash that is available on this model is taken into account. You can look up the invoice price for the exact car that you want by visiting the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
 
Once you have negotiated a selling price that you are comfortable with, have the dealer calculate your monthly lease payment using Ford Credit's base lease rate for this model. Ford Credit's base lease rate for the '08 Fusion is currently 2.0% in most areas.
 
That's all you have to do to get a good deal on a lease of this car. Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you...I actually think I am going to buy instead of lease. I think I am getting a good deal on the car after rebates and everything its 17800. I am going back to talk with them tomorrow!

Lease Options allowing up to 20K per year on miles? by kaytay1
Dec 14, 2008 (7:18 am)

I am interested in leasing a 2009 Fusion for work. I am starting a new job as a field sales rep and according to previous reps who had the same territory, they put anywhere from 15 to 20K miles per year on their vehicles. (The geography is not big).
 
At first I was NOT interested in a lease due to the miles (thinking I was only alloted the traditional 12,000 miles per year). However, when I went to a dealership the finance guy said they have deals where they would allow up to 20K miles!
 
Is this true? If so, how does it work in relation to affecting my bottom line payment? Or, is this a rip-off and I should buy. Ideally, leasing would be a great option due to the warranty, a car allowance, and the wear and tear I would put on this car for work. The Fusion is not my dream car, it is the best car for right now.

Hi what you were told is correct. Ford Credit has an option that allows lessees to drive up to 19,500 miles per year. Its 19.5k residual values are 3% lower than its 15k residuals, so your payment for the higher mileage lease will be a little higher.

Hi Car_man,
 
I am looking at leasing a 2009 Fusion Se with the sun & sync package in the Detroit, MI area. I have access to Frod Z-plan. The lease terms are 36-months 12000 miles 0 due (taxes & tiles which is $444.81). 4.0% with a 51% residual. The monthly would be $288.37. Does this sound resonalble to you? FYI- I am also leasign an Escape at the same time so I feel I sould be able to have a bit of a negoating advantage. Any inforamtion or help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for the help!

X Plan on Spoet AWD 402A is 28592 plus freight of 724. In zip 606 there is a $1000 incentive so the price would be 28317

Hi Brad. I have seen Ford's lease program for the 2010 Fusion. Its program varies by term and mileage allowance. You never mentioned what either of these variables are, so for now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different.
 
Ford Credit's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 Ford Fusion Sport AWD with 15,000 miles per year are 3.5% and 49%, respectively.
 
Ford's lease program often varies by region. If you tell me what state you are in, I can confirm that this is the exact program that is available in your area.
 
Given its lack of popularity, I do not personally keep tabs on the details of Ford's Flex Buy program.

Hybrid Lease/RCO? by pruhawk76

Any information on the interest rates and residuals for the 2010 Fusion hybrid for a 36, 42 or 48 month term (actually in Texas its the Red Carpet Ownershiip Balloon payment plan because of our tax laws). The manager at the dealership did not yet know and claimed he thought the residual on the Hybrid (36 months) might be as high as 56%?
