Saab 9-3 Dealer Cash, Help Please by apm4

I am new to this form and have a couple questions. I am planning the lease of a 2006 Saab 9-3 turbo. As of now I have 14 months left on a Saturn lease at 242.00 a month (smartbuy).
  
The dealer offered 8,750 for the car (the buyout is 10,500)for my Saturn. I also have a GM in the driveway discount of 1,000 dollars. Therefore the deal as of now for the Saab 9-3 stands at: 3,000 dollars down and 369.00 a month for 27 months, 12k/yr. This includes all fees/taxes and the release of my Saturn contract. The first question, is this a good deal?
  
The next and more important question is this 2,000 "hidden incentive" spoken about in the previous postings. Is this offered in NY state and how should I go about gaining this incentive. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Current Money Factors and Residuals? by arlvahoo

I'm looking into leasing a 2006 9-3 and was wondering what the current "buy rate" money factor and residual values are. The car I'm looking at is a 9-3 2.0T with an MSRP of $29,720 and a quoted sales price of $26,196. I'm looking for a lease somewhere in the 36 month range, and mileage of 10k-12k per year.
 
The sales price I was quoted seems pretty good ($1860 under invoice?) so I'm assuming this must already include the $2000 incentive from the manufacturer.
 
Also, does Saab typically charge security deposit and acquisition fee up front? If so, what do those charges typically run?

Do all dealers include the $2000 rebate?? Or do you have to ask for it. I'm looking at a Saab today and the ad states 309month with 1309 down. Is the rebate of 400 still good for college grads?

I'll answer my own question from a few posts up, since it might help others as well.
 
I signed a lease deal on a new 2006 9-3 this weekend. Saab's current offers on the 27 month lease make it an attractive option. Payments actually ended up being less on a 27 mo. lease than on a 36 mo. lease.
 
For a 27 month, 12,000 mile/year lease, residual value is 70%, and interest rate is 3.94% (MF=.00164). If you want to waive the security deposit, you'll have to add half a point to that rate (4.44% or MF=.00185)
 
For a 36 mo/12k lease, the residual was 60%. Interest rate stays the same.
 
In addition to the security deposit, Saab requires an acquisition fee of $670.
 
When you throw in the $2000 incentive, it ends up being a very good deal. I had a few dealers tell me the $2000 was for purchase only and not for a lease, but the place I ended up leasing from included the 2k discount in the deal.

johnnysaab,
$280/mo sounds like a long shot if you're looking for a new 2006. Even with a totally stripped model with NO options, you'd probably have to put down a down payment somewhere in the ballpark of $2000 to get your monthly payment in that range. And as I'm sure you've heard, it doesn't make sense to put any money down on a lease.
