M35 lease WA state by lgolfhead

8/31/07 Closed deal on '07 M35 RWD Journey, Tech, painted splash guards.
 
39 month lease 15,000 miles
MSRP $46,595
Negotiated price $43,650
residual 51%
money factor .00089
 
They originally gave us 36 month lease 52% residual .0014 money factor.
 
They did not offer 39 month lease and .00089 money factor until much later in the negotiations when it looked like we were ready to walk.
 
They did not give us the price we wanted until we were out the door to our car.

Hi bdrick. Here is the information that you're looking for. You never mentioned how long you want to lease for or how many miles per year you need to be able to drive, so for now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. Infiniti Financial Services' new September buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of an '07 M35X with 15,000 miles per year are .00034 and 49%, respectively.

Hey mrtrance. Infiniti Financial Services' new September buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2007 Infiniti M45 with 15,000 miles per year are an amazingly low .00001 and 61%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease of this car are .00047 and 51%.
 
Good luck in your quest for a new vehicle and let me know if you have any other questions,

Hi pwatts3. It is difficult to say whether Infiniti's lease program on the M35 will get any better once the 2008 model begins to arrive. Dealers will certainly be willing to provide good discounts on their leftover '07 M35s in order to make room for the new '08 model. The higher residual values that the '08 M35 almost certainly will have will help, but I doubt that Infiniti will provide as much money factor support on the '08, so chances are it will not be less expensive to lease.

Hi bonjack. I am sorry to hear that you don't like the Infiniti M45 that you leased. What don't you like about it? I am sorry to say that it is usually fairly expensive to get out of leases well before their scheduled end dates. In order to do so, will either have to make all of your remaining lease payments or purchase the vehicle that you are currently leasing from the bank that you are leasing it through. It often turns out that it costs more to do so than your vehicle is worth on the open market. Furthermore, many banks expect consumers who end their leases early to still make all, or at least the depreciation portion of their remaining lease payments. As you can see, this can get very expensive.
  
You can determine approximately how much it will cost you to get out of your current lease by comparing its purchase price to its value on the open market at this time. You should place a call to the bank that you are leasing your vehicle through to find out its exact price. Once you know exactly how much money it is going to cost you to buy your leased vehicle you need to compare it to its current value on the open market. You can find out approximately what your vehicle is worth by looking up its Edmunds.com True Market Value in the Used Vehicle Pricing section of this site. You also may want to stop by the following discussion: "Real-World Trade-In Values". Don't forget to check to see if you are still on the hook for your remaining lease payments. The difference between your leased vehicle's current value and how much it will cost you to buy it plus any remaining lease payments that you are obligated to pay will equal the cost of getting out of your lease right now. You probably will have to learn to live with your M45 for the rest of your lease. At least you only leased it for two years.

Hi miker. You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the M45 that you are interested in leasing. These are important numbers for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing this what car's selling price is 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 selling price and MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion of this deal if you let me know what these numbers are.
 
I am not personally all that familiar with how this car drives in the snow, but you may be able to find a community member or two who is by visiting the following discussions: "Infiniti M35/M45 2006+" or "New M35/M45 Owners - Give Us Your Report!".

M35 Base and MSD question, So Cal by deekmd
Sep 06, 2007 (8:47 pm)
Reply
Planning on leasing M35 with journey, tech and adv tech. I have already negotiated the price (45200). I am considering leasing. Ideally, if I were to lease, I would give around $5k upfront as multiple security deposits to lower the MF by 0.0004 - 0.0005. Beyond the msd, I would like to only pay the 1st month and ttl+fees.
 
So,
(1) when do I bring up the MSD for the lease - up front, or after I have negotiated the cap cost reduction, etc.
(2) when do I bring up the "I aint puttin nothin down" other than 1st mo, ttl, fees?
(3) what is the current MF/RV for M35 15k mi/year for 39, 42, and 48month leases?
 
I am thinking about doing this deal tomorrow (9/7) or Sat (9/8), so any advice would be helpful.
 
Thanks.. This forum is unbelievably helpful.

Hi deekmd. There's no need to hide the fact that you plan on making multiple security deposits on your lease, but I personally would not bring it up until after I had negotiated a selling price that I was comfortable with. Once you have arrived at a selling price, tell the dealer how you want them to calculate your monthly payment, including details like you want to make MSDs but pay no cap cost reduction.
 
Infiniti Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2007 non-Sport M35 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00071 and 48%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 42 month lease are .00107 and 46%. The 48 month numbers are .00145 and 40%.
