Here's what I just got in Hartford, CT: Have 3 days to back out if not good deal. Have some reservations about trade price and not knowing cost of car...think I messed up!! HELP!

   Splash Guards
   Floor mats
   Rear Spoiler
MSRP = (will call in AM, dealer never came back with price!)
Cap Cost = 0
Lease Terms = 36 months/15K miles per year
Residual = 54%
Money Factor = .0004
Monthly payment (includes 5% tax) = $284.56
    
- 284.56 : First month payment
- $1216.00: Fees,taxes,Plates,Registration for a total of $1500.00 (No security deposit because we are previous Nissan customer) Will get breakdown of fees in the AM.

$11440.00 total cost of lease for 36 months at buy out at end of lease is $15036= $25476. cost of car including all fees and 45k miles.
 
Trade: 2000 Dodge Intrepid 89k miles, really rough shape tons of dog hair,smells, A/C leak, rips in seats, cassette, burns oil smokes needs $1200 valve job. (we didn't tell dealer)
The dealer offered $2500. for trade $1500. toward fees, (no cap cost) plus cut us a check for $1000.

#65 of 1361 2007 MAXIMA SL - LEASE? by lm_cincy

Jun 25, 2006 (12:50 pm)

Went to 2 dealerships over the weekend ... loved the 2007 Maxima SL ... I drove the 2006 SL and there was such a difference - loved the new features of the '07 enough to pass on the great deals on 2006.
 
The MSRP on the 2007 SL is $33465... they said unfortunately, the deals on leases were not so good... and boy did I agree, once I saw the figures.
 
$547 / month for 36 months / 12K miles a year and $2,000 down
 
Can you help me understand why, when it is almost the same sticker price for the 2006, is there such a discrepency - they said we could have the '06 for $357 / month - 0 money down. 36 month/$12k miles
 
No way will I pay almost $550 a month for a Maxima ... but love the car. Any idea how long to wait before they will get better lease rates??
 
Thank you!

You're lucky to even have a 2007 Max on the
  lot. Here in Tampa, the two local
  dealerships don't seem to have any yet.
  By the way, what state do you live?

I think I deduced from your screen name that
  you're from Ohio?

Money factors can make a huge difference. I was told an easy $80 per month increase comparing a nothing money factor like what is being offered on a 06 vs an 07 at a high money rate of like 6.5%. Plus I am guessing since it is a brand new model, they are not taking much off MSRP. if you want to be the first on the block, you have to pay the price
