I just leased a 09 RX350 with an msrp of $44841 (with navigation) for cap cost of $40,310.78, mf .00095 and residual rate 54%. I'm in Dallas and they did no sales tax and used the $1000 mfg credit like a down payment. This is 36 month, 12k/year lease and the payment is $525. All I paid at delivery was first month plus title and registration -- $657.55. I negotiated between two local dealers and the other would have gone about $5 less on the payment but I went with the dealer closer to my house and with whom we have dealt with prior. I feel like I got a great deal. |

I have gotten the following deal MSRP: $43,591 Lease: $39,591 Residual: 44.00% Money Factor of 0.00105 48 months/12k $455/mo The car has everything but Nav. Dealer says Nav is about $40 more per month. Does this sound like a good deal? I also drove the '09 highlander hybrid today to get a comparison to the rx. I was surprised to find the interior much nicer in the Highlander. It has keyless ignition, 3rd row seating (out of the floor) and a much better center console. It seems that this is the way the '10 RX will look and its a shame I need to buy now. Anyone know why the '09 doesn't have these features?

Concern is that the numbers you supplied do not work out to a $455 payment without some upfront cash from you. Make sure you get all the numbers from the dealer, including acquisition fee (usually around $600), plus taxes and other fees. Once you have all the numbers, you may also want them to run the lease based upon 36 months. Doing so may result in a better deal. As another person replied, the current RX is the same overall style that's been around since 2003, so other than an engine change (from 3.3 to 3.5 litres), there have not been significant changes to the RX. You won't see a third row seat in this vehicle because Lexus has two others (the GX & LX) for that. The exterior of the new 2010 RX will look pretty much like the current vehicle. Photos I've seen of the interior do not look very appealing but we should have a better idea of this later this week from photos at the LA Auto Show.

Hi.. I am looking for a 2 year lease on the rx 350. My last lease was a 3 year and I know they offer the best terms, but I was wondering if anyone knew what residual would be for 2 years... Thanks |
