Greetings deejay2099. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2006 Mazda3 S 5-Door with an MSRP of $19,365 and a selling price of $17,484 through Mazda Credit right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $293. I worked up a 36 month payment for you because I don't believe that Mazda is offering 39 month leases on this car right now.

help in Los Angeles

I am coming off a three year lease on a 2003 passat.
I have read so much good about the MAzda3
yet my emails to dealers asking for lease deals have gone unanswered.
Is there any way to get a good lease deal on a MAzda3 (like the ones offered on jetta/passat, even saab 3 and audi4)
should i wait until after jan 3 (when all the current manufacturer deals end) for better deals in jan...does history show greater incentives in january?
thanx

The Mazda3 is selling very well so I wouldn't hold your breath for a good lease deal.

Hi murphy123. Unfortunately, Mazda's current lease program on the Mazda3 is not nearly as attractive as the leases that Volkswagen has been offering on the Passat, Saab has been offering on the 9-3, or Audi has been offering on the A4. Given the lack of lease support that is available on this car right now, it couldn't hurt to wait until after January 3rd to lease one. Its lease program can't get much worse. I certainly would finance or pay cash for this car rather than lease it right now. As the previous poster said though, don't hold your breath for an unbelievable lease on this car.

Leasing a Mazda5

Car_man, I am looking for the residual and money factor (top-tier money factor if possible) for a 3 year, 12K mile a year lease on an 05 Mazda5 Sport with auto transmission. (I'm comparing this to the Escape lease offer going on now--I test drove and liked both vehicles). Also, if you know how much Mazda's various lease fees were, that would be useful too.
I don't see a forum for Mazda5 lease questions, so please pardon me for posting this here. Thank you so much for your help, and pointing me on to some good leasing resources on Edmunds.
Charlotte

Hi Charlotte. I guess that we don't have a Mazda5 lease discussion yet, do we? Let's take a look at the current lease program for the vehicle that you are interested in. According to the latest informaiton that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2006 Mazda5 Sport through Mazda Credit right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00315 and 51%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this vehicle, keep in mind that Mazda is providing $1,000 lease cash on it this month. This money will help you to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost. As far as Mazda's fees on leases go, the last time that I saw it, its acquisition fee was $475. In addition to that, you would have to pay a security deposit. I don't believe that Mazda charges a disposition fee.

Thanks so much, Car_Man! The $1000 lease cash is great, and I have Mazda's S-plan, too, which I assume I can use in conjunction with the lease cash in negotiating a capitalized cost, right? This may work out well, I hope.

No problem, charlotte7. Yes, you should be able to use the S-Plan pricing as your car's capitalized cost if you decide to lease.
