Hi 540dude. I can't calculate a sample lease payment on it without knowing its full MSRP, but the other aspects of your deal look good. You got it for an attractive selling price and the money factor that was used to calculate your monthly payment is in line with Infiniti Financial Services buy rate. If you like the car, I don't see any reason not to pull the trigger on this deal.

Thanks Carman.
 
The full MSPR was $57,340.
 
Still a good deal?
 
I think so.

One more question about quote from Dealer by gdukes1975

Once again, thanks for the information Car_man. This help has been invaluable. I have one more question though. I got a quote from the dealership giving me a MF of 3.48 for a 42 month lease on the M35. Does this mean that it will be .00348?
 
If so, that seems monstrously high. They never said %, they just left a message saying the MF=3.48 with IFS for the vehicle I requested. I haven't called back because I am in no hurry to buy, and I don't want to go in without all the aces up my sleeve.
 
Once again, this forum is amazing. I just wish I would have used it when I bought my '99 Q45.

Full Aero Package (Body Kit)
 
MSRP $60,250
 
Here is what I am getting:
24 mos. lease

How does this sound?

You need more information as this sounds too high.
 
What is the selling price (total capitalized cost of the lease).
 
What is the money factor?
 
What is the residual?
 
Look at my deal above. $733 per month with New York City and state taxes (of 8.625%) rolled in for 18K per year. $1K above invoice. I paid NO cap cost reduction (down payment). The only option that you are getting that I did not was the full aero kit (I just got the rear spoiler). Also, are you getting the rear DVD player?
 
With all due respect, I think you are getting ripped off.

Really, you think so?!?! Even with only a 24 mos. lease? I actually got these #'s from a car broker and the dealer is matching it. At the time, 2 mos. ago when I got this quote when I ordered the car, the dealer was shocked at the #'s that I was being quoted.
 
I'll try and find out some more info on the other questions.

Sept vs Oct Lease by howard4

Read elsehwere in section that Oct MF may go down slightly to make up for lower RV. Quoted .00186 MF for 36 mos 61% RV vs .00198 for 39 mos 60% RV. Haven't finalized options and cap cost but in terms of numbers how do these currently look and any guess for October? Thanks.

The first rule of leasing is never negotiate to a monthly payment. That is a classic dealer trap. You must know the following:
 
What is the selling price (total capitalized cost of the lease).
  
What is the money factor?
  
What is the residual?
  
These 3 factors will dictate what the monthly payment is. My gut tells me that, based on your numbers, you are not getting a very good deal, but to really evalulate if you are or are not, you need to know those 3 items of information.
 
I negotiated my lease using these 3 key factors of a lease -- not by asking the dealer to meet a monthly payment target. Having a monthly payment target that you tell the dealer could result in the dealer marking up the money factor or the selling price beyond the base money factor and the lower price above invoice that the dealer would sell the car for, resulting in a windfall for the dealer and in you getting the shaft.
