Lease numbers - will these go down for summer? by mattiefeb

Hi this is the lease quote I received from a NJ dealership yesterday:
2008 GX 470
MSRP $52500
discount $4350
Sale price - $48150
36 months - 12,000 miles
total due at signing $4,500
monthly payment incl tax - $650
Does this sound too high? I still have 3 months on my current lease but they said I can take delivery in August (if summer rates go down I will be able to cancel this deal and go into new deal with better rates) . All I have to do now is choose a color and give a credit card. Should I try to get a bigger discount off of the MSRP?
Thanks! Mattie

Offering a Lower Price to Buy Car at Lease-end by rob222

My 4-year GX lease expires at the end of January. The buy-out price is $25,000. Is it possible to offer a price lower than the buy-out price? If so, how is this done?

Hi rob222. It's absolutely possible to offer the bank that you are leasing though, which I assume is Lexus Financial Services, a lower price than your truck's official lease-end purchase price. Whether they will accept your offer is another matter. More often than not banks won't. Still, you don't have anything to lose by trying.
 
Place a call directly to LFS a month or two before the scheduled end of your lease and tell them that you are considering purchasing your truck but that you want a better price. If your initial contact there is unwilling to work with you, work your way up the ladder to a manager and see if you have any better luck. There's no guarantee that they will be willing to work with you, but it's worth a shot.
 
If you wouldn't mind, I'd love it if you would report back and let us know what they tell you. Thanks and good luck.

I went to Lexus of Manhattan looking at the GX470.
 
They wanted $2500 down payment, so after taxes, 1st month payment and bank fees etc., it came out to $5900 down. $549/36 months 10K a year.

I contacted Lexus Financial and they were very rigid. It is, what it is. "No point in talking with a manager, we don't deal." I think Lexus is unaffected by the general market. They will get top dollar from someone, and therefore they will not give you a deal to avoid the hassle of wholesaling the vehicle.

Sorry that they weren't willing to work with you, rob222. Thanks for stopping back and letting us know what LFS said.
