redline122, I believe, but need to clarify, the Admin fee is the same as dealer prep/doc fees. I also have to check on the time for the pre-paid maintenance. I realize all this stuff is pure profit to the dealership. I may ask them for a cash price deal even though I am not crazy about financing a car.
 
I have to weigh this against an offer for a RWD 2009 Caddy CTS for $37500K fully loaded. So confused!!

If you are one of those who follow the "dealer's recommended service" packages AND this fee covers the 30K service, it's probably an OK deal....because that service (as recommended by most dealers) costs $800-1100. The reality is that you really don't need to do all the stuff in the recommended service but as I said, if you follow them blindly.....

Ah okay... these fees are negotiable... I got them down to less than $100 when I was buying the vehicle. I am assuming that this is not the lease acquisition fee that the bank wants correct?
 
The leasing company fee (acquistion fee) is usually a separate line item from the dealer's doc fee.

Car_man, I'm looking for a 2009 M35 with Tech/Adv Tech pkgs. MSRP is $53,035 and invoice $48,619. I have an offer on the table from the salesperson for $49,695. 36 month 15k miles/yr residual is 52% and money factor is 0.00168. I've been told by salesperson that each dealership in So. Cal. has received one 2009 M35. What do you think about this offer and are the residual and money factor correct for December? Thanks.

That looks like an excellent price on a brand new 09. If you lease the car, consider making multiple security deposits which will bring down that MF by .0001 for each security deposit. As them to run the numbers with the maximum number of security deposits....and remember you get those back at the end of the lease...they are not capital cost reductions.

Do you know if the residual and money factor are correct? Also, does anyone know if the $2000 rebate owner loyalty program is in effect for 2009 Ms?

Hi jg108. The lease program that you mentioned looks a little off to me. According to the latest information that I have seen, Infiniti Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Infiniti M35 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00128 and 50%, respectively. I do not believe that Infiniti is currently providing any owner loyalty cash on the 2009 M35.

2008 M35 Lease by gator5000e

Hey, guys, I posted about 10 days ago and am still talking with the salesman on the lease for the M35. Now he is telling me that because this is a national/manufacturer lease program, they have NO room to move at all. He says they make very little money on the deal, if any, and he only makes $100 per car leased under the national program. It sounds like BS to me, but does anyone know for sure whether it is or it isn't BS? If so, I am ready to tell this guy see you later.
 
Thanks.

gator,
If you feel like you could be getting swindled, then you may want to walk. If you are not truly needy in getting the car, then begin to walk. You walking will probably not have them pull the deal off the table if you came back later. Are the details the same as the deal you had posted sometime back?
 
You still could deal with an out-of-state dealer and have them ship a car out to you - if you are comfortable with that.

redline122, yes it's the same deal. I gave him some time to get closer to the end of the month to see if they would do anything. I do not really need a car as I have extended my RL lease (Acura has a nice extension plan, BTW). So I will probably pass on this. Even if this is a good deal, I do not have confidence in this guy after all this. The OTD purchase price, with tax and all, is a little over $43,000. Maybe I will just say screw it and get a G37 for my post mid-life crisis!!
