Just leased a 2010 EX 350 from Chatham Lexus of Savannah, Georgia. Great car, and new improvements stand out nicely. I found a MF equilavent of 2.76 % which is great for this early in the market. Must have decent FICA score. Talked with Brad who is the General Manager. He wants to please and make a good deal. I paid 4% above invoice. The lease had a 57% residual. I did a Single Pay Lease which is a one time payment for the life of the three year Lease with 15,000 miles per year. I paid $19,114 without taxes. No dealer prep fees either. Brad is in need of used Lexus for the Used Car lot so he is in a dealing mode. Best of luck!

Thanks for the response Car_Man. I pulled the trigger on the lease on Saturday. Ended up getting a MF of 0.00275 and 59% residual, as you quoted. Also negotiated the car down to about $1500 over invoice, or $4500 under sticker. I think I did pretty well.

Looking for RX350 - need realistic numbers by gmsmith

My wife and I have been looking at an Infiniti FX35 and had settled on that until we drove an RX350 yesterday. We loved it. We are looking at the 2010 AWD Smokey Granite Mica/Black w/Nav,Premium, Comfort.
 
Looking at all of the numbers, it looks like $42,000 is a reasonable price for the dealer to sell this car at. LeaseCompare puts this at the selling price with the above mentioned options. The dealer we looked at yesterday insisted they couldn't come off MSRP.
 
We are looking to lease 12k miles for 36 - 39 months. I understand the residual is 59% and money factor is (.00275, which is high in my opinion). If only we could find a dealer that would take a reasonable profit on this truck, we would have a deal.
 
Any tips on how to get through to a dealer on this?

Not sure where you are, but just go to another dealer. Them not willing to come off MSRP is ridiculous. Unfortunately there isn't much you can do about the money factor (I was told I could not buy it down with extra security deposits...not sure if I was told the truth by the dealer there...). You should be able to get the car for between $42k-$43k.

The standard rate is .00251. You really need to brush up on your figures. Also, the bank fee was raised to $700 about 1 year ago. Lexus won't allow a dealer to "mark up" the bank fee. You alluding to the fact that the client is being ripped off doesn't help the situation.

Just signed deal for 36 month lease. First month, bank and DMV fee up front. About $1585 out of pocket. Blue Sapphire AWD with Nav and Premium. MSRP $46,766.00. MR was .00215 (returning customer with Tier 1 plus credit); residual 59%. Monthly is $663.00. Assume this is good deal? I figure the buy was about $44,300 backing the figures in.

Does anyone know if Lexus has released the MF and Residuals for the 2010 RX350 for June 2009?
 
I am in Austin, top credit and an existing Lexus owner. My Austin Dealer reported that the best MF being offered by LFS this month on the 2010 RX350 is .00375 for 36mo term (returning Customer with Tier 1+ credit) and he also believed LFS has discontinued the MSD program.
 
Any help out there would be appreciated. I am not even going to start negotiating on price if they are not going to provide a competitive MF.

Hey carman,
 
Do you have the new money factor for 6/09? Also, did the residual stay at 59% for RX with nav and 12,000 miles per year? Thanks
