Infiniti M45 lease - Help needed by yogibearsd
Feb 17, 2008 (1:25 pm)

Hello all -
 
I need your help regarding my 2006 Infiniti M45 lease that is scheduled to end in April 2008. I have taken very good care of the car and it currently has 15000 miles on it.
 
What I like to know is:
 
1. Would it be possible to extend the lease by another 6/12 months? I love the car but I am not ready to purchase it yet.
 
2. Is it possible to negotiate on the purchase price with Infiniti? If so, how much of window do you think I will have on the $41,000 residual on the car.
 
3. If any of you have owned a M45 beyond 3-4 years, would you advise I purchase the car at the end of the lease?
 
Any help with any/all of the above would be much appreciated.
 
Thanks

Infinity is allowing up to 9 security deposits, and the sales person told me that each deposit would reduce the implied interest rate on a lease by 0.1%. I'm trying to decide whether this makes financial sense, and I can't figure out how you concluded that you'd be earning an effective 12% interest rate on MSDs. I calculated that I'd save just over $1000 in interest for 9 deposits totaling about $5100, which was a three-year compound rate of just over 6%.
 
Can you please elaborate on how you determined the 12%?

The actual $/% you save probably depends on your specific lease. Each security deposit (your monthly payment calculated with no security deposits rounded up to the nearest $50) (up to 9) reduces your money factor by .0001. Run both cases...no deposits and the MSD case...total up all the costs for the life of the lease (don't forget to add back the multiple security deposits which you get back)...that's the $ amount you earned by loaning infiniti the multiple security money for the period of the lease.
 
The savings, by the way, are tax free....because it's money you are not paying out..vs leaving the money in the bank or CD and earning taxable interest. I don't know anywhere I can put money and get even 6% tax free interest over the next 24 to 36 months. So even 6% is great...but I think you'll find it's more than that.

My 2007 M35X lease is up in a few months, does Infinity ever give any deals to buy the car at the end of the lease or is the price in the lease contract the actual amount you have to pay?
 
Thanks for any help

Look at my posts #1289 on. I ended up getting $5 off the monthly payment and they got rid of the $243 cap cost reduction. That was for $18M miles annually.

Hi Carman, you helped me with my last infiniti M35X lease. I'm about up on the lease and looking at the M35X and the new EX. Can you give me the money factors and residuals on this vehicle. I'm looking at 24 and 36 months 15K miles per year.!! Thanks

Hi yankee06040. The selling price that you were quoted on the M35 that you are interested in is right around $1,000 over dealer invoice. That's not bad. If you are in an area that has a decent level of competition and you shop around, you might be able to beat this by a few hundred dollars, but not by a ton. When you arrive at a selling price that you are comfortable with, make sure that the dealer uses Infiniti Financial Services' .00135 lease money factor to calculate your monthly payment.

Hello dmx434343. I would be happy to give you an idea of what these cars' current lease programs are like, however you never mentioned what term or mileage allowance you need. 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' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Infiniti M35 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00112 and 51%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2008 M45 2WD are .00152 and 54%.
