Hello kack. You absolutely can negotiate this car's selling price. The selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. For feedback on how much you should pay for this vehicle, make sure to stop by the following discussion: "Infiniti FX45 / FX35: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".

Hi someguy1. If you were to lease a 2005 Infiniti FX35 AWD through Infiniti Financial Services in October for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00155 and 60%, respectively. Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums |

Replying to: Car_man (Oct 09, 2005 6:53 am) For the FX35 AWD with the selling price of $38,000, how much money down would be reasonable to put down for the figures you calculated in order to get the monthly payment of $444 for 12,000 miles per year for 39 months ? I am assuming that the down payment would include tax, title, registration fees, and inception fees ? Please correct me if I am wrong or if somone already stated the down amount, I am new to leasing. I am being offered a lease for a 2005 Acura MDX base for $2,000 down, $400 /mo for 36 months, and if I can get the FX for the same or similar deal, I will take the FX!!  How much down payment do I need to put down to get the FX at $400 a month? Thanks, Alex |

| I am also (soon to be) an ex-Audi owner. Looking to lease an FX35 AWD with sport and touring packages only. I know they've got a special lease on, but want to try out the following idea: If MSRP is $40,770 and sales price is $37,200 -- what would I typically be paying for a 39 month lease? A 42 month lease? I'd like to put the least amount down, but stil try to hold the pre-tax monthly below $450. Is that possible? I live in Southern California if that's a factor. Thanks. | |

This is funny, I also happen to be a soon-to-be ex-Audi owner.. I've been dreaming of an SUV for my next car, almost settled on the Acura MDX, but the way the FX drives - its like a beast, and that roar is like a motorcycle! However, I do wish the seat were a little higher than it is, like in regular SUV's... badad, you should get a similar deal to mine then. I am wondering if I can get it less than for $37,100. Thats $1000 off MSRP already, but I've seen better deals on it a year ago from a dealership that was overstocked. So I figure at the end of the year there should be similar better deals. Otherwise I'm now considering getting it 1-year old to save some $$$.

Hi Alex. Have we discussed this lease before? I don't remember doing talking about leasing an FX35 with you. If not, I need you to provide me with its full MSRP (with the destination charge added in) in order to estimate what your lease payment should be. Technically down payments aka capitalized cost reductions are different from the amount that is due at lease signing. Down payments are used to reduce the amount financed for leases and lower their monthly payments. I always advise consumers against making any sort of down payment when leasing. I do so for two main reasons. The first is if your vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen during your lease, your insurance company pays off the bank that you were leasing it through and your down payment essentially disappears. The second main reason is that down payments on leased vehicles do nothing to reduce their lease-end purchase prices. So your lease-end purchase option price for your FX35 would be exactly the same, regardless of whether you had put several thousand dollars down, or had made absolutely no down payment at all. Even if you choose not to make a down payment, you will still have to pay money at lease signing. This money includes your vehicle's first month's payment, a security deposit equivalent to that payment rounded up to the nearest $25 or $50 increment, Infiniti Financial Services' $550 acquisition fee, and any required state taxes or fees. This month Infiniti is waiving its security deposit requirement on this model, so at least you won't have to worry about that. Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Hey rocco50. You never mentioned the MSRP of the vehicle that you are interested in leasing. This is an important number for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, it shows you how much of a discount you are being given on your vehicle. Without knowing this vehicle's selling price in relation to its MSRP you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on it. The second reason is that one needs the MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion on this deal if you let me know what this number is. Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
