Still looking for an 08 M35 by br2376

Hi all,
 
I have been looking at leasing a M35 here in the Central FL area and I was wondering if anyone has any info on the current deals since the Jan 5th expiration date of the past ones. I am currently leasing a Fx35 with one more month left. Has the money factor/residual/loyalty $ on the 08 M35s changed?
 
Any input as to the timing, negotiating or anything else in leasing would be greatly appreciated.
 
PS I will not deal with Orlando Infinit. They have done nothing but waste my time.

Greetings br2376. Here's the information that you are looking for. You never mentioned how long you want to lease this car for or what mileage allowance you need, so for now I will assume that you want a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. IFS' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 M35 2WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00001 and 42%, respectively.
 
When negotiating your lease on this car, make sure to take the $1,500 lease cash and $1,500 bonus cash that are currently available on it into account ($3,000 total). this cash will help you to negotiate a capitalized cost that's well below dealer invoice.

How Much Should I Pay Lease On An M35x With 20k/Yr? by draz2

My lease on my Lexus ES350 is up in June and I'm beginning to look around. I like the specs on the M35x as I want an awd vehicle this time around. But the 1st salesperson I spoke to said the lease now would be about $899/month for that car with nav. Hell, I can get into a M-B E350 4matic with nav for about $725/month.
 
What gives? Can I do better than this $899 price on the M35x? And please don't hit me with a bunch of fancy numbers and jargon like "money factor," etc. as all I care about is the bottom line.....what I need to pay each month.
 
Thanks for any help/advice you guys can offer.

I think $899 is way too high. I am assuming that you are looking at the 2009 model. Since it just came out, so the price is hot, but when it is time for you to lease / buy, it will drop. For now, since there is little incentive (so the dealers can move 2008 models), it is not a surprise for the monthly payment number. But, by March/April, the number will drop and I believe you can lease one for around $650/month by June with the 39 month lease, which is the most popular lease from Infiniti and 12K miles per year. You can adjust the cost based on your mileage needs from there.

I recently got a quote for a m35x with tech package, 39 month lease, 10K miles / year in the new jersey area for $775 per month with nothing down (taxes and fees rolled into the lease). I'm holding off because I expect it to go down over the next few months. If you're looking for a lease with 20K miles per year the monthly payments will be considerably higher and you may be better off financing (depending on how long you plan to keep the car).
 
If you can get an E350 for $725 per month with nothing down then you should go for it...that seems too good to be true given MB's current lease offers.

Thanks for your response. It's reassuring. I was just wondering whether it was my imagination or fact that the German's (especially M-B) offer much better lease deals dollar for dollar than the Japanese brands. I noticed that on my current lease which is $664/month (all taxes, fees, etc. rolled into the price) on a 36 month lease on a car which lists for ~$43k. The German cars list for almost $10k more and lease for almost the same monthly payment.

draz2,
One of the reasons I can think of as to why leasing terms are more attractive on the German brand... is that in the US... many of them typically hold their resale values better than the Japanese competitors...
 
What I do enjoy about Infiniti is their overall reliability. My previous G-coupe hardly saw any unscheduled trips to the shop... where as my previous BMW found it necessary to find a second home in the dealership's garage!

Really that low? by TwoWiggle

I was browsing around and found the M35x w/Tech leasing for $369/mo with total down just around $3K, 10K miles/yr for 39 months...that can't be right, can it? Or is the economy THAT bad...new model year coming out soon? Or is it really that good of a deal?

Seems impossible to be that low. Are you sure it's not a demo with a bunch of miles? Is it an 08 or 09?
