#1509 of 1692 Getting Ready to Lease 2010 FX35 - I Need Help by kelmin

Oct 30, 2010 (6:18 am)

Hi Car_Man. I really need your help with Leasing a 2010 *Demo* Infiniti FX35 AWD with Deluxe Touring Package, Premium Package, Navigation Package, Splash guards, and Roof Rail Crossbars. The Demo currently has 4750 miles on it. MSRP is $53085.00 asking price is $45,973.00. I live in Kentucky = 6% sales tax.
 
I have not negotiated with the dealer yet, trying to get my credit in order due to my CR showing my mortgage as a revolving account. Once I get this fixed I will be looking at a high tier credit rate.
 
I did test drive and absolutely love the car. I know you are a busy man, but is there anyway I can get you to help me back into a good deal before I walk into the lions den??? I'm looking for the best possible price online (truecar = $45323) but I cannot plug it in as a demo. Can I get you to help me come up with the best possible cost, MF, fees, and residual % to come up with the monthly price? I know this may sound like a lot, but reading multiple advice blogs and there have been several comments where the buyer has received a free extended warranty for the car being a demo as well as .15 cents off every mile currently on the car. Plus I also heard that Infiniti gives discounts for recent College Grads? Do you know if this car applies?
 
I know this is a lot to ask, but I am a true consumer. I have been researching cars for about 7 months but I can go on 20 different websites and get 20 different pieces of the puzzle so to speak. This is the first forum where I feel comfortable in getting the true story.
 
Thank you in advance for your help.

I purchased the exact same setup this past saturday and paid 46k, only thing was it only had 4 miles on it. So youll have to do the math and figure out how much more discount you get.

Hi kelmin. The problem that I personally have with demo vehicles is that dealers never seem to be willing to discount them for me to personally justify purchasing what essentially is a low mileage used vehicle over a brand new one. If I was in the market for an FX35 right now, I personally would need this car's purchase price to be significantly below dealer invoice to persuade me to lease it. You can look up its exact invoice price over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. I definitely would want more of a discount than $0.15 per mile. Heck, I think that IFS charges more than that as an excess mileage charge on leases.
 
As far as its lease program goes, Infiniti Financial Services' new November buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 FX35 AWD with 15,000 miles per year are .00007 and 47%, respectively.
 
Good luck and definitely let us know if you have any more questions.

#1512 of 1692 November Lease rates and Incentives by danmgy11

Nov 08, 2010 (11:45 am)

Car_man,
 
I was wondering if you could tell me what the current lease rate is for a 2010 FX35 FWD, for 39 month and 36 months with 15k miles.
 
Also I see on the rebate section of Edmunds it has $4,000 cash to dealer and the language is a bit confusing on if it, can or cannot be applied to a IFS lease?
I current have an Infiniti lease so I know I get a $1,000 incentive. Are there any other rebates out there?
 
The model I am looking at has an MSRP of $49,385 and invoice at $45,274. So I guess the million dollar questions is with all rebates/incentives what should I be looking at for a cap cost?

#1514 of 1692 2011 FX35 in CA by 1st_time_lease

Nov 13, 2010 (1:14 pm)

Hi Car Man,
 
I am looking to lease a 2011 FX35, we are still discussing options, but it would be mostly loaded. The dealer told me that the supply is low in CA, so that they are usually leasing at MSRP. he has quoted me 3% over invoice. I was quoted 38 month lease which I thought was weird, I have asked for 36 month lease over email. In either case, the money factor is .00173 and the residual is 55%.
 
Any thoughts on the 3% over invoice fee and the MF/residual?
 
thanks

I certainly can, danmgy11.
 
Infiniti Financial Services' November buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 FX35 FWD with 15,000 miles per year are .00003 and 46%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00021 and 45%.
 
The $4,000 dealer cash incentive that you saw mentioned is not compatible with this lease program, but there is a $2,000 cash incentive that is. Make sure to take it into account during your negotiations. That two grand is on top of the $1,000 loyalty cash that you are already aware of.
 
If I was in the market for this truck, I personally would shoot or a selling price of around $500 over invoice minus the aforementioned cash incentives.

Hi hockeysb11. It would be much easier for us to evaluate this deal if you provided us with this truck's MSRP and selling price. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if one was paying cash for or financing them. Without these numbers, it is difficult to tell how large a dealer discount you are being given and in turn if there is any room left to negotiate. Let us know what they are and I'm sure that either myself or another knowledgeable community member will gladly tell you what they think.

Greetings 1st_time_lease. The money factor and residual value that you were quoted are right on the money.
 
I personally would be very hesitant to pay full MSRP for any FX, regardless of supply. How much over invoice does 3% amount to dollar-wise? That sounds a little more reasonable. If you've comparison shopped with several dealers in your area and that seems like the best that you can do then this may just be the going rate for this model in your neck of the woods.
