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.

did you get an answer to your question as to whether or not the $2000 is below invoice?

Even with the GM employee discount on a lease $280 is too low?

I called 800-saabusa and they stated there is not an incentive for that amount.

Hello apm4. The $2,000 dealer cash that Saab is currently providing on the 2006 9-3 Sedan is not compatible with its special lease program. However, Saab is providing $1,000 bonus cash on the '06 9-3 Aero Sedan that can be combined with its lease program.
 
It is difficult for me to tell you whether the lease that you were quoted is a good deal without knowing this car's MSRP and selling price. These numbers will show me how much of a discount you are being given and will enable me to use Saab's actual lease program to estimate what this car's monthly payment should be. Let me know and I'll tell you what I think.

Hi arlvahoo. Saab Financial Services Corp. no longer publishes money factors for the vehicles that it leases. Instead it now uses lease rates. Lease rates can be converted into approximate money factor equivalent by dividing them by 2400. If you were to lease a 2006 Saab 9-3 2.0T Sedan through SFSC right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 3.94% and 60%, respectively. This 10,000 mile per year residual value for this term would be 2% higher.
 
$1,800 under dealer invoice is a very good price for this car. Keep in mind though that the $2,000 dealer cash that is currently available on it is not compatible with its special lease program. If the salesperson who quoted you this price didn't know that you want to lease you may not be able to get it.
 
SFSC charges both a security deposit and an acquisition fee on every vehicle that it leases. Your car's security deposit will be equivalent to its monthly payment rounded up to the nearest $25 increment. Its acquisition fee is currently $595 in most states. You should be able to roll your car's acquisition fee into its capitalized cost to make it part of your payment instead of paying it at signing if you want.

Thanks for the response, Car_man.
I leased a new 9-3 last week, and I'm very happy with my deal.
When I told them I wanted to lease, most dealers balked at including the $2000 incentive, but I still found one dealer who ended up quoting a cap cost for a lease of $1500 below invoice. That was too good to pass up.
The 27 month lease looks like the way to go right now. Payments are actually lower than they would be on a 36 mo. Residual is set at 70% for a 27mo/12k mile lease.
Paid nothing out of pocket and rolled in all taxes and fees.
