Thank you for replying to my post.
 
The invoice price was 25845, MSRP was 26901. The cap cost did not include the 595 acq fee, the monthly amount from the cap cost was $235.50, added $15.50 for tax and $31/ mo for all fees (acq fee, mv fee, tire, etc) for a total of $282 but took it as $290 sign & drive instead.

REF: 1145
I am confused. So your total lease cost is 35 payments of 290 and that's all? I assume "Sign and drive" means you put down zero money before taking delivery. Also, how did your MSRP go from 25845 to 26901? What did they add? What is a tire fee? State specific?
I am looking to lease before Jan 2...thx

Sorry for confusion...I'll try to be clearer now.
 
Sonata Limited 2013 with floor mats, cargo mat & mudguards
 
MSRP $26,901
Invoice $25845
Cap Cost $22,200 (based on some posts I've seen could maybe do better closer to $21,500k)
NJ tax of 7% $558
All fees (MV, doc, bank fee) $1113
 
Payment would have come to $282 per month for 36 months but we did $290 with zero money down for 35 months.
 
This included a $500 loyalty coupon, $1500 Hyundai lease incentive.
 
My mom wants to lease a Sonata also so I already spoke to the dealership that I may help her lease this month. Frankly believe I can do even better although felt this was a solid deal. If I do get the cap cost down I will post & let you know.
 
This was Flemington Hyundai, Flemington NJ. I started with Trucar price, spoke with internet manager and worked down from there.
 
Hope this helps.

#1148 of 1221 Sonata Lease End by romil01

Dec 18, 2012 (12:28 am)

I have 4 months left in my 36 month lease on a 2011 Sonata GLS. I was trying to get out of the lease early and lease a different brand of car. Hyundai Finance basically told me the only way to do it without penalty is to sell/trade the car for the payoff amount. This won't work because the payoff is $15K and the best trade-in price I've received is $11.5K from a dealer. A Volvo dealer wanted to cut me a check for the 4 remaining payments plus the $400 disposition fee, but Hyundai Finance says no. They say it will still be considered an early lease termination if I turn the car in more than 30 days early, regardless of the fact that I am paying them the money I would have paid them anyways, plus they get the car a few months early with less mileage on it. They will charge me a $400 early termination fee, any fees associated with auctioning the car off, and the difference between the payoff and the auction price. So technically, I could owe them a few thousand dollars. This seems wrong. I called them twice and talked to two different reps to make sure they weren't smoking crack and was told the same thing by both ladies. The salesman at the Volvo dealer also called them because he said he has never heard such BS in his 20 years in the business, and they told him the same thing.
 
Anyone else find it strange that Hyundai won't accept the money I will be paying them anyways, especially since they would be getting a car back that is worth more than it will be at lease end?

You sort of answered your own question... The payoff is $15K and your car is worth $11.5K.. They are hoping you'll get rid of the car, otherwise, and they'll get their whole $15K.. and, if not, it's possible they have insured that residual, and can only collect if the lease term is completed..
 
And.. let's be clear... the bank owns the car... not Hyundai.. (even if they are named Hyundai Finance). They would much rather have the money, than have the car...

I have done it 2 times and never had a problem. Ask for a supervisor. That's crazy.

Try another dealer. I believe Hyundai has a buy back program that buys back all the cars with 6 months or less left. That's what I was told by the Paramus Hyundai

I don't think it is up to the dealers, it is up to Hyundai Finance (the bank). I'm guessing the primary reason they won't do it is because they would end up eating it on the car since it is worth way less than the payoff right now.

#1153 of 1221 Sonata GLS + PeP Pirce in Chicago/Madison Area by sanred

Dec 28, 2012 (5:49 pm)

Finally I took the deal (18630) which I was offered in Chicago to my Madison dealer (Zimbrick), he matched the price ($18605 +135 doc fee (after 1500 +500 rebates)) . I am bad negotiator hence I said yes. At the last minute rather than buying I leased the car.
  
Here are the details :
Lease for 36 months / 208 +10 (tax)=218$/month
200 $ down-payment for the first month.
Residual =61%
Price to buy after the lease –14,142
  
GLS + Popular Equipment Package (Ruby color – my wife wanted it)
Carpeted Floor Mats
Cargo Mat
Cargo net
Remote Start
Rear Bumper Protector
Wheel Locks
  
I will get the car tomorrow (as the car he has didn’t have remote start), as they need to get the vehicle.
  
Thank you everyone, this forum is really helpful. First I leased my Sienna and now Sonata.
  
Thanks
San
