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!!

Help with leasing H3 by miller14

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!

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

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.

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.

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.

GMID not always under invoice??? by ksoles
Feb 07, 2006 (2:47 pm)

Thought I was ready to start posting my lease questions but then I ran into this,..
 
My understanding of the GMID from what I've read here as well as other sites is that the GMID price is approx 1% lower than invoice and that is why some Dealers do not like to or will not accept the GMID even through they get reimbursed for that vehicle. I used NADA and KBB's vehicle builder (sorry Edmunds, you guys are missing options in yours) and each one of them came up with the same price details of the H3 I working on, $38,115 MSRP and $34,424 Invoice.
  
But after getting my GMID, logging into the supplier site, locating the H3 we are working on, it shows the GMID/Supplier price is $34,874.47, but that is actually $450.47 higher than invoice? Is the GMID not always less than invoice?? Understanding GMID is usually approx 1% under invoice (or am I wrong?) wouldn't/shouldn't the GMID price of this H3 be more closer to approx $34,079.76 Vs actually being higher than the invoice of $34,424?

Hello Car_Man
 
Can you can me an example/idea of the GMAC 24 and 36 month lease based on the following numbers? This is what I am trying to finalize on the H3 we are looking at. Sticker $38,118 , deal $33,675 (GMID price minus $1200 DVD incentive). Using those can you advise me of the approx we could expect on a 24 and 36 with 12k?
