Replying to: anjony123 (Jan 24, 2006 3:52 pm) Hi anjony123. The selling price that you were able to negotiate on this truck looks very reasonable to me. Similarly, the lease rate that you were quoted for it is right in line with GMAC's current lease program. Unfortunately, I believe that even returning GMAC lessees have to pay an acquisition fee on the vehicles that they lease. The fact that you are currently leasing a GM product might have gotten your security deposit waived, but that is a moot point considering that GMAC is waiving its security deposit requirement on all leases of '06 H3s right now.   I am not familiar with how sales tax is calculated on leased vehicles in your state, but you may be able to find out more informaiton on this subject by visiting the following sites: New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission or NJ Taxation.   GM is currently providing dealers with a $1,200 dealer cash allowance so that they can provide consumers with a free DVD system in any H3 that is sold. This covers the entire dealer cost of this option, so you should be able to get the dealer that you are working with to throw it in for free.   General Motors is not currently providing any sort of owner loyalty cash on this model.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Replying to: Car_man (Jan 25, 2006 3:43 am) Thanks, Car Man,   After seeing your numbers and reading some other recent posts, I think I see what the dealer is doing. The monthly payment quote I am getting from the dealer is about $100 more than the $387 you arrived at. However, they are supposedly paying all the up front costs so I am giving them absolutely no cash to drive away. I think they must be actually rolling that back into the lease to arrive at my $495 a month lease payment (including tax). The whole point of my paying nothing down was to allow me to pay the last 4 payments of my leased van. I really wanted them to take the van over so that I wouldn’t have to worry about it anymore but they didn’t want to. Is it dumb to let the first month’s payment, security deposit and acquisition fee be wrapped into the lease? Should I keep trying to negotiate or wait until the van is closer to being turned in? Reading the posts, $495 seems pretty steep per month for the H3. It seems possible to get the payments around $460 (including tax) but then I have to pay the up front money (first month's payment, security deposit, and GMAC's acquisition fee of $595).   Thanks for all your help!!

#90 of 415 Help with leasing H3 by miller14 Jan 27, 2006 (7:16 am)
Hi, I am interested in leasing a 2006 H3. I have done a lot of reading and feel that I am informed on the leasing process; however, I do not understand what a GMID is and how you go about obtaining one. Is there any way that I can get this? If not, do I need this to get the best possible deal on leasing an H3? Thanks in advance for your help! Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 03, 2006 4:04 am)

Hi Car Man- Would you happen to know yet if the lease rates will be changing for February? Also does $522/month sound right for a $39.5K H3, at 39 months, with 15K miles and $1200 out of pocket.   Thanks   FFF

Replying to: imjj4short (Jan 25, 2006 7:15 am) You're welcome, imjj4short. There's nothing wrong with rolling your vehicle's security deposit and acquisition fee into your lease payment. Doing so actually protects you from losing them in the event that your vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen. Having said this, it does cause you to have to pay interest on charges that you normally wouldn't.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Replying to: miller14 (Jan 27, 2006 7:16 am) Hi miller14. Unfortunately, if you don't know what a GMID is, you probably will not be able to get one. Basically what people who mention this are talking about it the ability to purchase a GM vehicle through its employee purchase program. If you know someone who works for General Motors, they can usually give you the ability to buy a new vehicle at the employee purchase price. you do not necessarily have to purchase through the employee purchase program to get a good deal on this truck, it just makes doing so easier because you don't have to negotiate. If you are just purchasing this truck on your own, comparison shop and try to negotiate the best possible price that you can before having dealers calculate lease payments for you.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Replying to: msid (Jan 31, 2006 11:06 pm) What state are you in? When you say includes 3K down, did you roll it in, or was this up front? Sounds like an amazing deal. My BMW's lease is almost up, and I am seriously considering the H3. I am still so weary of GM quality, but for this kind of deal, there is no thought.
