Here's the info that you're looking for, everlasting. Mazda's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Mazda3 i Touring Sedan with 12,000 miles per year are .00151 and 58%, respectively.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '09 Mazda3 s Sport Sedan are exactly the same.
 
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '09 Mazda3 s Sport 5-Door are .00137 and 54%.

Thought I'd pass on my experience with the end of my lease.
 
I went back to the originating dealer with my '07ST with 2 months to go. I was at ~24.5k miles (out of 27k). I figured that they would be drooling over the chance to get my mint car (well cared for - spotless inside and out, oil changed and tires rotated every 5k miles) on the lot. Optimistically I figured they might even give me some extra $ towards a new lease/finance of an '09 or '10 Mazda.
 
Wrong. Right now the dealers are getting killed by Mazda American Credit and can't get a better deal than the Residual in the contract. MAC would rather take the cars to auction to get more $. Tulley Mazda in Nashua is a great dealer, and gave me owner loyalty ca$h (passed on by Mazda) and invoice pricing on a new car...but that was it. Nothing more. The deal on the table was $335/mo for a '09SGT with AutoDim Mirror and Moonroof/Stereo. The price for the car ~$22k.
 
I did call a different Mazda dealer and they didn't even want me to bring the car to them! "Just bring it back to the original dealer."
 
For that money, I shopped around and stumbled into a deal for a '07 BMW 328i with 16k miles....I loved my 3ST, but the 328 is a different planet!
 
I dropped off the 3ST yesterday and I will miss it. The Biz Mgr there said that Mazda should come pick it up in a couple of weeks. Fare thee well...

Rarely does a dealer buy an off lease car. The normal process is for them to go to auction. Dealers get enough trade-ins from purchases, they don't need the off lease stuff.

Lease a Mazda by teeitup66

Car_man,
 
I was thinking of leasing a Mazda HB, but it seems that leasing this particular car is not a good deal. Is this still the case today?

Hi teeitup66. The Mazda3's current lease program isn't the best that I have ever seen, but it's actually not that bad...particularly given how many manufacturers have pulled back significantly on their lease support in recent months.

2008 Mazda 3 lease for 2 yrs by humblehyper

Hello all, I have a Mazda 3 i sport leased for 2 years and so far I've made 7 payments already. Is it possible to trade this in for another new Mazda maybe the 2010 model but instead of leasing another one I will finance it? Is this feasible? Thanks much.

You can do this, but the issue with that is..... Your pay off versus your trade in value, if they can be equal or your trade value is more than your pay off than you are in good shape. Since you have only made 7 payments, I am not sure you will be able to do it. I am in the same boat. I am 12mths into the lease, I really would like to get out, but I will wait. I will try to see exactly where I stand in a couple months though, just for kicks.
 
Get your pay off, than get a trade in value, but expect a lower real world trade value now days.
 
Good Luck!

When you say that mazda is not offering any lease support on the MS3, does that mean you can't lease one (never leased before so I dont really know how they work) or are you saying that there aren't any good deals on them? Sorry if thats a stupid question but I wasn't sure if the MS3 is exempt from leasing or something since it is never included in any "incentive" based deals.
 
P.S.- Sorry I'm basing this off a 3 month old post.
