Your explanation of MSD's makes sense. Unfortunately, they are apparently not available in NY. I have a question nonetheless. What happens to the security deposit(s) if the car is stolen or totalled? We know that any "down payment" is lost, but I've never seen the security deposit addressed.

How to benefit from IFS's incentive $500? by madrad

As an incentive to induce you to lease again with IFS, they offer to pay up to $500 in excess wear and tear charges or excess mileage charges.
 
Well, I took very good care of the vehicle and my return inspection (3 weeks before lease end on 5/28) showed ZERO charges for excess wear.
 
I've pretty much decided to lease another Infiniti (M45x)...so how can I get IFS to give me some of that money? Perhaps a reduction in the first month's lease? Has this happened to anyone else?
 
If they won't, in a way one gets penalized for taking good care of the vehicle.
 
Thanks for comments/suggestions.

You are definitely off on the number of zeros. Here's a website to calculate lease payments. http://www.leaseguide.com/calc.htm
Something is off if you use the numbers that you have. However, it may be okay, depending on the taxes that were added to the cap cost.

BMW guys say they can do the MSD thing by buying in NJ, even though they live in NY..
 
Technically, your security deposit shouldn't be at risk.. But, once the insurance company and the leasing bank start talking about payoffs, almost anything can happen.. I've yet to hear a definitive "you can never lose that deposit, due to accident".

MJC: Same with me. That $500 is worth $0 when I turn my M35 in next month. 39 month lease, 22K miles when the car comes back to them and not even a minor door ding. I'm in the last 6 weeks of my lease so I suspect there will be no additional inducements coming. On top of that my local dealer made me a "special offer" for my next lease ... a genuine bludgeoning ... materially worse terms than I got in late March of 2005 for a new model in short supply with an MSRP $4K more than the one I'm looking at now and that includes the $2K loyalty incentive!

Thanks ocautoseeker , I'm ready to go to the table and this info really helps. With the lower MF for May it makes the deal for me the same as Apr buying down the MF with MSD's to .00002 vs Apr MF of .00112 buy down to .00022, even though resdual dropped 1%. This forum is a great resource. Thanks again to you and all the others + car man and kyfdx.

Thanks ocautoseeker.
 
I think armed with this info and the lower MFs this month, I'm ready to pull the trigger. I'm going to try the checkbook.org service for leases mentioned on this site.
