Good question, hellye1. The method for calculating sales tax varies from state to state. There are three main methods of doing so (I suppose that you could say that there are four if you count the states that don't charge sales tax at all). In the first, the state taxes the payment and down payment. Most states, including Florida, Georgia,
Missouri, Connecticut, and California use this method. The second way is to tax the entire selling price of the vehicle. This is how sales tax is calculated on leases in states like Illinois, Texas, and now Ohio. Lastly, some states only tax the depreciation portion of leases. This is tax is calculated on leased vehicles in New Jersey. I am not sure how it is calculated in New York, but you may be able to find out by visiting one of the following sites: New York State Department of Taxation and Finance or New York State Department of Motor Vehicles.

Car_man,
 
Where did 71% residual for 24 months come from in your calculations. I know for February the IFS G35x 24months/12k miles program had 70% residual. Did it go up for March? Do you happen to have the new MF? The old one was .00123
 
Thanks,
 
Ed

Infiniti nearby is currently offering a waive on the state sales tax (6.25%) for all new leases. Is that worth consideration? What would be a good price to pay on a lease for a G35 journey w/ navi, sport, and premium 15,000 mile/year if you take away the tax? I have the VPP plan D (1.65%). By my estimates, the price should be somewhere around $35800.
  
I've read that a lot of people here say not to pay anything down if possible on the car. Is that true?

March lease numbers (for 36 months) by dwynne
Mar 01, 2008 (2:58 pm)
Reply

G35 journey 0.00178 60%
G35 sport 6mt 0.00178 58%
G35x 0.00160 60%
G37 journey 0.00202 61%
G37 sport 6mt 0.00211 64%

 
These are the March IFS lease numbers for a 36 month lease with 15k miles per year. Add 1% to the residual for 12k miles per year and 2% for 10k per year. Note that to get these rates you have to be in IFS tier 0 or tier 1 (700 and up credit score) and that while you may QUALIFY for these rates many Infiniti dealers mark them up for extra profit.
 
I THINK the Feb numbers are good through Monday, so if your payment nets out to less using those numbers today would be a good day to visit your friendly dealer D: .

G35 Deal Complete - Thanks Dennis by condott9

Just wanted to thank the forum members and especially Dennis for all the great help as I signed the papers today on my new G35. Found a January model pre MSRP increase, Black Obsidian w/Graphite interior, premium, navigation, sport, tech, spoiler and of course splash guards, trunk mat and cargo net.
 
MSRP $41,025
Net Cap Cost $38,000 (w/dealer prep & bank fee)
36 month/15K miles
MF .00178 (March rate)
Residual 60%, $24,615 (March rate)
Payment w/tax $514.67 (6.5%)
MSD (5) $2,750
Adj. Payment $488
Cash at Signing $3,406.32
 
When I went to review the numbers the total cap cost showed $38,500 with a $500 cap cost reduction. Before I could make the comment about the numbers being wrong he showed me a section with a $500 rebate which brought my cash at signing back in line. The only difference was I had to pay 6.5% tax ($32.50) on the cap cost reduction. However, since he was able to use the March rates and I had agreed on a deal Friday using February numbers it dropped by adjusted payment to $488.00 versus $492.24. The net affect was a $120 savings over the life of the lease so I did not have an issue with the deal.
 
The point of my long winded explanation is that there may be some support dollars out there from Infiniti to the dealers. Not sure but thought it was worth mentioning. Worked with Atlantic Infiniti in Jacksonville and they had the same vehicle available in Liquid Platinum just without the spoiler.
 
Thanks again for all the help, now I just need to find the time to learn all the features on my new toy.

Hi Car_man:
 
Is the residual at 71% valid for 24 months and 12K.
What should the Docs, registration etc be for Northern NJ?
 
Thanks for your help.

Just picked up my new G35 by sdjdguy

I also want to thank everyone who has shared information and advice on this site. Thanks to you, I discovered the new March lease program information as well as how low some dealers were willing to go on the sales price. So, at the last minute, I was able to buy the car I really wanted, the G35, instead of my (much cheaper) backup choice, the Acura TL. Somewhat to my amazement, I found a dealer willing to sell the G35 slightly below invoice on Friday evening, 2/29.
 
Here's the deal I got at Costa Mesa Infiniti (CA) on a 2008 Black/Ebony G35 Journey with Navigation, Premium package, splash guards, and cargo net:
 
MSRP: $37665
 
Invoice price: $34432
 
Selling price: $34263 + document fee ($45) = $34,308
 
24 months, 12,000 miles per year (payment was only $2.00/month more for 36 months, but I preferred 24 months)
 
Total out-of-pocket: $1,384.80 (1st month's payment of $451.94, acquisition fee of $595.00, and some type of "tax" ($46.11), license fee ($288), and tire assesment fee ($8.75)
 
Residual value: 70%
 
Money factor: 0.00144
 
Payment: $419.41 + 7.75% CA sales tax = $451.94
 
I'm loving the car so far. Best of luck to the rest of you who are in the market.

Yes, I do but I refuse to post them.
 
Just kidding, I posted what I have. If I get more, I will post those too.
