#301 of 445 Re: Leasing a Mazda 3 in Southern California [caliguy84] by Car_man HOST Aug 21, 2008 (2:02 am)
Replying to: caliguy84 (Aug 15, 2008 8:27 am) Greetings caliguy84. Since you are new to leasing, you definitely should check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com prior to visiting any dealers: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.   In short, the best way to get a good deal on a leased vehicle is to negotiate as low a selling price as possible and then have the dealer calculate your monthly payment using its buy rate lease money factor. On a Mazda3 in an area that has a decent level of competition, I would not be surprised if you were able to negotiate a selling price that's pretty close to dealer invoice. You can find the invoice price of the exact model that you want by visiting the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. The buy rate lease money factor for a 36 month lease of an '08 Mazda3 i is .00182.   In your post you mentioned that you have $1,500 to $2,000 to use as a down payment on your lease. It actually would be in your best interest not to make any capitalized cost reduction when leasing. Consumers who make large down payments on leases risk losing them if their vehicle is totaled. You would be better off only paying your car's first month's payment, acquisition fee, and security deposit at signing.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: danny14 (Sep 17, 2008 3:01 pm) Hi danny14. Mazda is no longer providing support on the 2008 Mazda3, but it does have a special lease program on the 2009 model. Its current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Mazda3s GT 5-Door with 12,000 miles per year are .00260 and 52%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 24 month lease are .00081 and 61%. I do not believe that Mazda is currently providing any cash incentives on this car.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
#305 of 445 2008 s Touring by mugenlude Sep 30, 2008 (8:53 am)
Car_Man when you say they are not supporting the 2008 models any longer what does that mean? Are the 2009 numbers applied to the 2008 models then???   I'm looking at a 2008 s Touring with Moonroof/6CD/autodim mirror/rear spolier... I'm looking to see what the residual value is on it, as well as the money factor... could you help me out...   Thanks, -Jason Replies to this message: Car_man (Oct 09, 2008 3:38 am)
#306 of 445 09 Mazda3 GT, manual w sunroof/bose pckge... by steavos Oct 02, 2008 (3:28 pm)
Hey, new to the forums, but I've narrowed in on purchasing a Mazda3 so I thought I'd post. Here's the lease I'm considering (live in Delaware):   2009 Mazda3 sedan Grand Touring Black Manual Sunroof/Bose Package   ZERO down, 12k/36 months $20,500 Residual value is .55 and interest rate is 5.7% $380 per month   Any thoughts? I've test driven the car 2x (also driven the Saab 93, Volvo S40, Jetta Wolfsburg & SportWagon, WRX, Audi A3, Mini Clubman) and love it, just all around great car. Reviews don't hurt, everyone seems to rank them at or near the top...   Thanks. Replies to this message: djhalptert (Oct 09, 2008 5:34 pm) steavos (Oct 10, 2008 10:24 pm)

Replying to: mugenlude (Sep 30, 2008 8:53 am) Hey Jason. Nope I mean that one can no longer lease an '08 Mazda3 through Mazda Credit. Technically one probably would be able to do so, but its standard lease program for the '08 model would be so bad that they wouldn't want to. If you really want to lease a Mazda3 right now, you would be better off going with a 2009 model, though you might be able to lease an '08 through an independent bank.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: steavos (Oct 02, 2008 3:28 pm) I really hope you didn't end up leasing this car for $380 per month. You could get a loan for $20,500, 60 months 6% for $396. Just $16 more and you could own it. You need to rethink that one. Replies to this message: steavos (Oct 10, 2008 10:24 pm)
