#300 of 400 Help new to leasing & have x plan
by swflgal
Sep 11, 2012 (8:02 am)
I am looking to lease a 2012 ford fusion in sarasota florida by the end of the week and my company has access to the x plan pricing. I am new to leasing so I am not sure I totally understand how it works and am very nervous about. I thought x plan pricing offers good pricing and protects you from paying too much when buying the car. But does leasing with the xplan put me at risk of being swindled on the leasing terms if I am not lease savvy? Do I tell the dealer upfront that I am leasing and want to do xplan pricing? Any guidance anyone could provide me I would great appreciate it!

They are fenderman2. Ford Credit's special lease rates for the 2013 Fusion vary from 5.5% to 6.5%, depending upon which one of Ford's myriad of regions you are in. The residual values vary by trim level.

Hi swflgal. X-Plan does provide you with a fixed attractive price on a Ford vehicle. Theoretically dealers shouldn't mess around with the lease program for an X-Plan deal, but I suppose that you never know. If you provide me with the details of the car that you are interested in, how long you want to lease it for and what mileage allowance you need I can provide you with the details of Ford's current lease program in your area that you can bring with you to the dealer to make sure that they aren't playing any games.

car man, thanks. Im looking at an SE manual with luxury package. What are the residuals.

Yeh were looking at 2013 Fusions as well and trying to figure out leasing. Dealers don't have any in for another week or two. Looking at 13' SE most likely with fwd, 2.0 eco etc.

I'll be trying to lease a 2013 Fusion Hybrid come end of December. Going to do it via Carwoo and I figure near end of month and near end of quarter during a tough sales month for dealers will get me a good price. Going to submit for the Hybrid and the SE in case the Hybrid price does hold up strong. I'll come back to get current money factor and residual at that time and let you all know how its working out; I have near perfect credit score so I'm going to negotiate as hard as I can.

Are you saying that the best money factors offered are 0.0023 to 0.0027, or am I misunderstanding your post?

Hi Car Man, long time listener, first time caller.
Factory Ordered a 2013 Fusion Hybrid and now that it is on the train am getting down to negotiation. Do you have the numbers for the residuals and money factors for 24/36/39 months? Looking at 12,000 or 15,000 miles. I am located in Southern California, Los Angeles area. Thanks so much!

That is correct, bluelikejazz. To convert lease rates into approximate money factors divide them by 2400.

HA welcome aboard, sbla9. Ford Credit's October base lease rate and residual value for a 24-month lease of a 2013 Fusion Hybrid with 15,000 miles per year in Los Angeles are 0.25% and 50%.
The 36-month numbers are 0.25% and 43%. The 39-month numbers are 0.5% and 41%.
The residual values for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year are 2% higher.
