Hi Car man,
 
I live in Maryland and I am in the middle of looking to lease a Mazda3 GT 5 door(hatchback) I visited the local Mazda dealer and they gave me the following price:
  
Mazda 3 5 door Grand Touring
w/Moonroof + Bose package and other additions
  
MSRP: $22,875
Selling Price: $21,785
 
Could you work up a lease package for 24 months/15,000 a year. Also, what is the current money factor and residual?
 
Thanks in advace.

The numbers will probably change for September..but..go back just 10 posts and you will see the MF and resids for August.
I guesstimate your pyments for 24 months to be 350-360 a month.

Hello all,
 
Here is the currently proposed deal with no money down.
2007 Mazda3 GT 5 door with Bose/sunroof package and automatic transmission.
 
MSRP $22,775
Selling price $21,805
Residual 64%
Money factor .00154
Taxes $1,095 (taxes are 5% in Maryland)
Acquisition fee $595
Processing fee $99
 
The monthly payment would be $443.27
 
What does everyone think? I have a few questions.
Are taxes figured out on the total cost of the vehicle or on the monthly payment? Should I pay the taxes up front or put them into the monthly payment? Is the acquisition fee and processing fee negotiable?
 
Any other comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

$440??!! How long of a lease? How many miles? Something is WAY off here. People are paying that for G35s. I'm paying less than that on a $27k Honda. You could finance that car for that much.

I forgot to mention that the lease is for 24 months at 15,000 per year. The price sounded high to me as well.
 
I calculated the lease on my own came up with an an approximate payment of $375. I'm not sure how taxes are calculated in Maryland - up front on the total selling price or by the monthly payment price.
 
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and/or advice.

I'm pretty sure that MD is 5% on the selling price..
 
But, at that monthly price, I'd buy the car.. You'd get the same payment over 60 months, more or less..
 
Unless you are upside-down on a trade, that price seems way out of line...

pfje,
 
What is the adjusted capcost? If your payment is correct, then the adjusted cap is substantially higher than the sell price of $21,805. Even if you cap the sales tax and acquisition fee, the total amounts to $23,495. Using this as an adjusted cap triggers a payment of $430.25 or about $13 less than your payment. Your payment suggests an adjusted cap of $23,796.24. Looks as though there is an additional $300 coming from somewhere.
 
You're not providing enough information for me to respond intelligently. Something is missing. I have no clue how you arrived at the $443.27 payment. Taxes appear to be based on $21,900 ($1,095/0.05). Looks a little shakey to me. I need a break down of the adjusted cap.

John,

Moonroof and Bose 6cd in-dash changer. - MSRP $22,775.00
Your Special Internet Price is $21,805.00*

MONEY FACTOR 0.00154

I have not met with the dealership in person. Correspondence has been using email. Therefore, I have not seen their payment formula. Before I respond I was hoping for helpful comments (like yours) from the members of this forum.
 
Any comment would be greatly appreciated.
