| Its final, but still aint sure whether its good deal. Anyways, Im getting my G35 Coupe w/ Premium Package/Splash Guard/Trunk Mat in about an hour at invoice $33,987. Lease it for 12 mths, 12,000 miles at $448 inlcuding tax, $742 drive off. I think it's an ok deal considering dealers need to make some profit. Does anyone doing a 12 mths lease? Seems too short eh? Is lease extension a hassle? | |

I finally got to a local dealership and test drove the G35 coupe. Great car. After our discussions, here was the offer: 12 Months 12,000 Miles Loaded, excluding only Navigation and the Sports Package. It also includes the wheel upgrade (18 inch) Didn't write down the money factor, but was at 3% when I multiplied by 24. Zero Down This also includes the dealership cutting us a check for $1000 to pay off our current lease (3 months left) $599 per month Not sure if we want to do the deal, or let our lease expire (Accord) and then negotiate when 2007's are out. However, they may be less willing to negotiate price on the 2007's. Thanks for any advice on this deal.

I received a call today from the dealer offering the same car as above for 560 per month (down from 599). Good deal?

Replying to: casturtroy (Sep 05, 2006 1:20 pm) Wow! I hope not! Rate is money factor times 2400. so if you got 3% by only multiplying by 24, then the real rate is 300%. LOL. I'm SURE that's not true. I dunno about the deal. Missing key info like MSRP and selling price. I mean, for nothing down and only 12 months, $560 doesn't seem horrible ... then again, $6700 just to drive a car 12k miles is ALOT of money! Comparing your deal to the deal above yourse, however, it seems like you are doing ok. That poster is paying $6120 over 12 months. You are paying $600 more, but rolling $1k negative equity into the deal. So, in effect, you are actually about $400 lower.

Sorry, times 2400. 300% is a few percentage points to many.  We're down to the G35 discussed above, and the Lexus IS350. The MSRP was 39,105 roughly, and the sales price is 35,000 (36,000 due to the $1000 cut back for the current lease). The Lexus would be acquired in Novemebr (a 2007) for 785 over invoice. 36 months, 12K miles, 0 down, everything but navigation, $580 per month. Not sure if I want to commit to 36 months in the IS, especially since the new G will be released next year. |

Replying to: chloetan (Sep 07, 2006 9:23 pm) I calculated your payment x 12 and added your drive-off ... BUT I think you are correct because your drive-off would have included first month's payment, right? So, yeah, 11 x payment plus drive-off = $5670. so your 2 deals are actually VERY close. |

Replying to: Car_man (Aug 29, 2006 3:21 am) Over the past year, I have bought a car and lease another car; my suggestion to anyone leasing/purchasing a car would be that after you have agreed upon a payment for your lease/purchase, always begin by signing the form that fully details the payment (lease/installment) that you would be making for that car. Definitely read this form carefully and take as much time as you want. Beginning with this form is a good idea because you finalize the deal and the ball is in your court. Maybe car_man can provide feedbacks on this. |

Shopped for a G35 sedan auto with Premium C and XM, ended up purchasing a TL but here is what I experienced Infiniti of Coconut Creek - sporadic responses and couldn't really pin down a price Infiniti of Palm Beach - 445 plus tax 39/12K- but then he seemed to forget that I had mentioned in each email that I wanted XM - that would be $700 extra. $700! That's twice the MSRP! Guy got all indignant when I called him on it. That was that. Infiniti of Sawgrass - most forthcoming on the net re price. They were as follows and would have gotten better had I gone down to the dealership: 39/12K 426 plus 6% tax 36/12 459 plus tax 24/12 467 plus tax. All only first due at signing, all other costs rolled in. Good guys to deal with, would recommend them. Infiniti of Davie - the internet manager is awesome. 429/mo tax included for 39/12 after I sent him the Sawgrass deal. 429 due, all other costs due. Great price, although the finance dept did try to screw it up by adding a bank fee at the last minute. So at least I think the deal was great, as I didn't sign. They ended up calling me after I walked out and dropped the fee, all a big misunderstanding etc. I reconsidered leasing, would definately done this deal but ended up buying the TL and getting the 2.9% financing on that - just better for my personal situation. I would definately deal with this dealership again, they are brand new and seem eager to sell/lease cars. That's it. Plenty of competition down here, everyone wants to get you into the dealership before they give you a price, but the savvy internet managers will give you a good price and then drop it 10/mo. when you go in. Do your own math and don't accept their bs - they will never sell you a car at a loss. Happy hunting, and thanks to all for the input. You too Carman!
