Hey madrad. Infiniti Financial Services' May buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 Infiniti M45x with 15,000 miles per year are .00001 (that's as good as it gets) and 61%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this ca, make sure to take advantage of the $2,000 loyalty or $1,000 conquest cash that is currently available on it.

Take another look at the G35 by ghstudio

my M35 lease is up next month....My dealer gave me a 24 mo 12K lease quote of around $650 to lease the 08 M35/tech...about $75 more than my current payment. The residual on an M35 is now 62% on a 24 mos lease.
 
So I started to think about alternatives...after all, I leased the M for 24 mos because I like change. The 08 M35 is almost exactly like my 06 M (newer nav and a passenger seat that adjusts..that's it).
 
I woke up this am realizing I hadn't really looked at the G....larger engine, slightly lighter car (economy?)...so I went to take a look. Did not drive one (my salesman's day off)..but I did price one out on a lease. Using MSD's, I can lease a G35 with almost every feature for $100 less than my current M....because even though the MF is higher (which I buy down with MSD's), the 24 mo 12K residual is 70%....yes...SEVENTY PERCENT. That's unheard of...and by the way the residual on the G37 for those of you who can live with a 2 dr car is even higher. These are incredibly good deals.....
 
The G even has a few features over the M that are actually important to me. One is the sports seats where the bottom cushion can be extended to support my long legs...and retracted so my much shorter wife is comfortable..and it does that on both driver and passenger sides. The other is paddle shifters which should be fun on an engine that's more powerful than the M's on a lighter car.
 
I give up some seat room...but there's enough room for two if I'm not driving across country.
 
I think my search has ended.....I'll drive one tomorrow.

Excellent deal. I've had quotes from two different dealers of ~ $2500 up front and > $600 per month for 39 months! I would jump all over the deal you have been offered. Bart

Still contemplating,
 
I've got an offer to buy a 2007 new m35 sport black and black with nav/ tech package for $40,000 (good deal)? or would I be able to get it lower. it would be financed with money down
The 2008 m35 would be a lease for 24 or 36 mth around 650 to 750 per month.
 
the 2008 m35 offers the nav tech package as well.
 
anyone suggestions.
is this a car for the long run or short run.
I see many of them seem to lease it and then return it.
is it better to lease or get get it financed and buy the car.
any suggestions or opinions would help.

The 2007 and 2008 are almost exactly the same car with some changes in the navigation system. Dealers are asking 34000 for 2006's that are back from lease.....so a 2007 is probably a 38000 car. If you are leasing, it doesn't matter which one you get...get the cheaper one (total cost not monthly cost). If you are considering purchasing at the end of the lease, get the 2008 car...and just forget the 2007 one.
 
I will bet that the 2008 actually leases for less total cost over the life of the lease than the 2007.....there is $1000 that infiniti throws in as a capital cost reduction....and I have no idea what the lease of a 2007 would be...if you get a quote, please post it here..I'd like to see the money factor and residual on a 2007 leased today.
 
Please Please focus on the total cost of the lease..not the monthly payments. Make no capital cost reduction of your own. Then compare the total costs.

If I were buying and planning to keep the car for a lonnnnnnnng time I would get the '07 because the cost is materially lower ... and significantly lower than the difference in model year value five or so years down the road. The '07 that you're describing is essentially the '06 I have that lists ~ $50K so you're getting ~ 20% off msrp. To make sense of the best option I would recommend looking at resale values of comparable cars five years old. The '07 and '08 are essentially identical cars so there's no upside to one v. the other ... with the exception of your amortized cost over the expected life of ownership. Bart
