Yes I do meccanj98 for the reason I outlined above. A $48K car for that much money (even a lease) is really good even if you have to put the down payment down and pay tax/title/license. Remember, you can alter the monthly payment (up or down) to get a lower or higher down payment and vice versa. Ask the dealer for several quotes with different monthly/down payment combinations to see which one fits your budget or situation.

2008 FX35 AWD
Touring, Hands Free, Splash guards, Roof rails and Cargo protector
MSRP $42,575
 
15,000 miles per year
24 months
 
$529.99 due at signing
$529.99 a month
 
Includes NJ 7% tax, lic, MV, bank fee, doc fee etc.
 
I thought I got a pretty nice deal, considering that the sale price is way into holdback.
Now another dealer is telling me he can beat the deal by $300 by using a non IFS deal.

REDTREE00...which dealership did you find that deal at? Also what is a non IFS deal and what dealer told you that? So all that would come out of your pocket is 529.99?

FX35 $508/month by tylerz

We are finishing up the final touches on an FX35 AWD, Nav, Technology, Sport, iPod, handsfree, DVD. 49805 MSRP, 45219 Invoice, dealership is basing it on $48000
 
The dealership is offering $508/month with $4000 at lease signing for a 24 month 12k lease.
 
A few questions.
 
How much should I push to lower the cost closer to invoice? I am inexperienced in dealing with Infiniti.
 
Is it better to keep my money and accept the higher payment, or put the money down. Either way it is within our means, just want opinions on money management.
 
Sounds like a good deal?
 
Thanks

IFS = Infiniti Financial Services
 
Manhattan Infiniti offered me $300 off my best price with an outside bank.
 
The $529.99 deal was matched by every NJ Infiniti dealer I negotiated with.
 
Total out of pocket was first payment.
 
From what I was told, holdback is 1% for Infiniti. The deal works out to below invoice, cutting deeply into the holdback.

FX35 AWD 24months 12000 miles.
Touring + Hands Free + ipod+cargo+roofrail+splashguard
 
does that look like a good deal ?
 
i was given msrp $43020
money factor as we know 0.00014
NY tax is about 8.65%
i think cap cost was about 396xx and some change. about 50 or 60 bucks...
 CAP COST ( Negotiated price of the vehicle)
residual is at 67% - ( 28823 or something like that )
 
2200 down ( includes Everything even dmv and title and the whole nine yards)
so out of pocket completely is 2200 )
 
and then 450/month for 23 months.
 
 ( i think i am paying about 400-500 over invoice with this deal ) ?
 
Host please advice about the deal ? thank you in advance.
 
__ REQUEST _ A SECONDARY question for the host ______
 
i did a lot of research and reading and got a much better understanding to how lease works and wt pit falls to look out for.
i do understand - why its important to know the msrp and mf and cap cost to evaluate the payments and see wether the dealer is giving a good price.
 
BUT at the end of the day doesnt it come down to really just numbers ?
down payment and per month ?
 
i mean lets be realistic ... when i did my calculation and even used the calculator provided on leaseguide website the total cost to own was 12100 or so and with the deal i am gettin 450*23 + 2200 = i am paying 12550 -
 
i guess somewhere in between there is a difference of 400-600 bucks ?
 
i went to many different dealers and the deals starts at 3200 + TAXES and stuf as DP and 420/month after negotiating a lot..... it finaly lands somewhere in the same ball park as 2500-2700 down pmt ( complete out of pocket with tax ) and 450-500 a month. depending which ever way you arrange the numbers.
 
they dont really cut you a lot of slack. even if i do the calculation and show em they will just turn around to say well gota add this fees or that fees to increase the cap cost ?( bank fee 595 or handling fee 550 etxx ) you see.. OR EVEN TELL ME THE down payment was just fees and taxes ? so then the down payment doest even act as a CAP COST REDUCTION -- they are alwas looking to make a certain number minimum on the car. from there perspective its above invoice and on the deal wtever it maybe. ( do fill me in please)
from a consumer perspective its more of
( HOW much is it going to cost me to lease this car for X time ) and it really didnt do much cuz all the numbers i tried and bargained landed me around $12400 - TO about 12700 out of pocket expense for consmer - ( one of em almost said out loud $13700 as this was a straight fwd deal from the infiniti.com + taxes and dmv.)
 
how do i go about it ? is it my call to say What is dp is for ? or where they should be applying it ?
 
im sorry if this blog took a lot of ur precious time but i just had to ask, its a learning process for me.i do understand its better to know this stuff and walk in the dealership which gives upper edge of negotiating rather then not knowing anything...
 
if anyone out there finds this blog interesting please let me know. i put a lot of time and research into getting this specific deal. anyone with a better deal please post it up,
 
thanks.
 
EVERYONE PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ADVICE IN.
