M leasing by ghstudio

Yes, in theory, you could buy a car for $2000 under invoice if the dealer was willing to sell you the car at invoice. The $2000 is available for both lease and purchase...and the best way to think of it is that the real invoice is $2k less than what the dealer shows you. So getting a lease on an M with a capital cost of $1000 under the printed invoice price still gives the dealer $1000 profit plus the administrative fees...you can certainly shoot for less cost.
 
The best M deal is on the X in May.....my quick calculation told me an X equiped the same as an M cost $50 a less on a 24 mo lease.
 
The G is very attractively priced....but it is not the same car...it drives peppier but I hate adjustable steering wheels that move the top of the dash with them because that gap reflects in the window. The M is larger and better (softer) riding...but not quite as peppy.

That sounds like a good planm but should I negotiate a 2008 M35x lease now or wait? My lease is not up till 8/28. Do you think any dealership would be willing to get me into a leased 08 m35x and eat the payments on the 06. I can't imagine them wanting to get my cap cost down to $1000 under invoice if they are going to have to pay 2 or more payments on the 06 m35x. I don't want to wait too long because the $2000 credit will be gone and I'm worried about the MF increasing on the X over the next few months.

We don't know the june rates...but the 2000 expires at the end of june....but it could be extended. If you want to lock in the 2000, then you are going to have to start your lease June 30. The dealer won't eat your last payments...he'll just roll them into your new lease...so you really haven't saved anything.
 
I think I'd be a gambler and wait until August. At that point you will have a few more 4wd options including the new FX...the EX will still be lower cost than the M (and I think a nicer car than the G)...and there could be some additional choices. Infiniti may offer a real deal on X's if they have a lot left over when the 09's appear....and don't discount the G35x.
 
Sure...the MF might increase and the residual may decrease.....no one can tell you what to do....I can only tell you what I'd do Also remember, you can extend your lease for 2-3 months at the same rate (and they give you the appropriate extra miles) so that would buy you even a few more months to make the choice. Given gas prices, you might be able to get an 09 M35x for what you can get an 08 M35x for now....Folks aren't exactly rushing to buy these fuel burning cars...

Thanks to Car_man HOST for May money factors, etc., but couldn't get around to deciding before now.
 
Can you supply money factor and residuals for 2008 M 45 x
for 24 months, excellent credit, 12K miles (unless no significant difference for 15K).
 
I'm hoping the nearly "free" money of .00001 continues....
 
Many thanks.
 
Have my eye on 2008 M45x with tech, advanced tech, mats, mud flaps and spoiler.
 
Has anybody bought anything similar recently?

Was negotiating an M35 lease today and the Finance mgr said the program was same as May: 24/15K=61%/.00024 -36/15K=50%/.00082. I guess they could change later in month but with M sales down 23.3% again in probably not

shivan, I had an I35 on 36 mo lease and wanted to turn it in two mos early in 06 to get an M35 as the inventories were getting low . I called IFS and explained that I was working a deal on an 06 M35 at such and such a dealership and could I possibly terminate my lease early. They agreed and waived my final two payments less 2 mos mileage Times may nave changed since then as the I35 was a hot resale car and they were pushing M35s hard. But you might try. Good luck

Good deal? by agoods

Trying to negotiate an M35x (base model) and FX35 AWD simultaneously, and think that the FX35 is a better deal (with the new model due in at the end of the month), but much prefer the M35x.
 
What do you think of this deal?
 
MSRP: 45,675
TOP: 2,869 (NY taxes, 1st mo, bank fee) + DMV
Term: 39 months
Miles: 10k/year
Monthly pmt: $480.00
 
I think it is getting close to being a good deal, but still am unsure whether it is worth the extra $75/month over the FX35 (MSRP $43,020). I am not eligible for the loyalty rebate (only the conquest rebate).
 
Any insight would be appreciated.

A few points...
 
I think you will find that a 24 month lease actually costs you less, at least on the M35x....and just FYI the lease on the M35x is better than that on the M35
 
If you are getting an M, get the technology package...it really makes a difference.
 
The M navigation allows voice entry of addresses. The '08 FX does not which I don't understand, but that's the way it is.
 
Personally, if I were getting a crossover/suv, I would get the new '09 murano before I would buy the '08 FX. When it first came out the murano was selling for MSRP...now they are eager to sell and the negotiated lease/purchase price can be very attractive.

No problem, madrad. Here's the latest. Infiniti Financial Services' current 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 an amazingly low .00001 and 61%, respectively. The residual value for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 1% higher.
