I can't comment on the leasing numbers since we don't ever lease and I don't know much about it. I do know that Infiniti has a calculator on their website that works up lease numbers for you.
 
As for the fuel requirement...we owned an '01 Pathfinder before the QX. It too had the same "premium fuel recommended for best performance" stickers. We put premium in it for several years until gas prices got really high. I switched it over to regular w/out telling my wife. She never noticed a change in performance nor did our mileage change. So it was obvious that 87 octane was a-ok for the Pathfinder.
 
We just got a QX and we'll be putting premium in it for at least the first several years (unless premium prices go waaay up compared to regular) since we tend to hold onto our vehicles for several years. Since you're planning to lease, I'm not sure why you would spend the extra $$$$ in gas for a vehicle that you don't plan on keeping for a long time. Infiniti will not be able to "gig" you for not using premium since they do not require it. It is merely "recommended"....

Casy
 
Waaayyy off. The March deals just got better. I just picked up an 08 QX last Saturday with a $59,210 sticker. 39 months, 10K miles a year, $0 down for $660 plus 5% MA sales tax. After I bought the truck, another dealer told called me and told me he could do $630, but I already signed.
 
Your 12K might add a point or two to the residual, but shouldn't affect the payment by much.
 
Remember, no matter what they tell you...they ARE NOT selling these trucks. It is very slow right now, especially with $4 gas coming soon.
 
I just filled up today---$80.00
 
Good luck!

I posted previously about squirming between purchase of a like new '07 QX56 and a new one. I purchased a new QX56 this week-end. After what seemed like a weekend of Sundays the dealer quoted $49,450 for a 2WD with options that totaled $56500.00. I would not buy all of the dealer add on , paint treatment, special tire inflation, leather treatment etc. The final price was after the $1500 incentive. I MIGHT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET ANOTHER $500-1500 BUT MY WIFE STARTED TO SEE AN UGLY SIDE OF ME. Nice truck and so far, no buyers remorse. Maybe it is too soon, but I knew what I wanted to pay , around $48,000, W/O the entertainment package. I got the package and some other minor stuff for the above price, Oh well !
By the way, I had another dealer offer me a used '08, similalrly equipped for $48,000.00

Congrats!!!! I'm sure that you'll be MUCH happier with the '08's improved interior and extra options than the '07. I too was amused at how much one dealer was trying to charge for two used '08's. I ended up getting my brand new QX for less than they were asking for their preowned models.
 
What colors? It sounds like you got a 2wd w/out DVD or the Tech package, correct?
 
That is why I don't bring my wife to the negotiating sessions. First off, she does not want to deal with the shenanigans, but second, she knows that I can start copping my "Jersey attitude" if I get ticked off at something/somebody. Thankfully, I had a great dealer who moved quickly on their price and got me where I wanted to be. I too left a couple hundred dollars on the table, but it was not worth the effort to get such a tiny amount of $$$ compared to the total purchase price.
 
Congrats again!

I bought a 2WD black with black interior WITH the entertainment package and a few other options. I am satisfied, my wife is happy and there are more important matters in the world other than haggling with a salesperson about a $1000.00 more or less. I am quite sure that I am going to enjoy it the few times my wife lets me behind the wheel. This web-site was quite helpful and I felt comfortable locking onto a price and not budging

QX56 2008 by mlevine

Congratulations benbo enjoy your new purchase. I tried to get the QX without DVD but very hard to find. Felt DVD not worth the price. We have a stone interior which can get very dirty, I try to wipe it down on the weekends. Had to buy carpet mats as the 2nd and 3rd row seat carpets can get destroyed. I only drive the SUV on the weekends as this is the wife's vehicle. Current gas mileage about 11mpg, suspect it will improve as the engine breaks in.

Just flipped over 1100 miles and we've been averaging 14.5 miles. That is on a 4WD. We've been taking it relatively easy since we're on the break-in, but nothing too easy.

I'm looking to lease a 2008 QX56 4WD in the next couple of weeks. Does anyone know the residual value and money factor with 15,000 per year for a 3 year lease?
Thanks

QX56 Lease - Can I do Better? by neocortex

Car Man,
 
I am currently looking to lease a '08 QX56 2WD with DVD and no additional extras. I am in Southern California and have recieved the following bid. The vehicle in question includes the Tow Package, as well as splash guards and cargo net (both of which I'm going to see if can be thrown in for free).
 
MSRP is $55,625 - invoice is $50,984
 
There is $1000 conquest cash being used from Infiniti being used as part of the down. I'm also contributing $2000.00 down out of pocket.
 
Here's what the dealer has proposed:
 
36 months/12k miles
- $2000 down + $1000 conquest cash
- $654 + tax = $708.76 (residual 55%)
 
39 months /12k miles
- $2000 down + $1000 conquest cash
- $637 + tax = $690.31 (residual 54%)
 
Do these residual values look correct? Is there a better price available? Where can I potentially get a better deal or am I kidding myself?
