Replying to: danb5 (Nov 30, 2006 12:54 am) Well I was just quoted a lease rate of 495.00 including 6% sales tax, 27 months 15K/Yr for a 2007 with a MSRP of $35,120. and a sales price of $33,932. This sounds like you got a fare deal. Am I off?

Replying to: sterki (Dec 11, 2006 4:22 pm) Those quotes seem a little high to me, you probably have a bit more room to negotiate. They are certainly not terrible so I wouldn't expect much more off I don't think. As long as your residual is about 66% and your rate in the mid threes I think you are getting a pretty standard deal. Also, you did not say what the negotiated price of the car was, if you can get that number you can compare to Emunds TMV or similar for another point of comparison.

Replying to: sidv (Dec 11, 2006 6:10 pm) Thanks. I forgot to say that they would give us the invoice price. Replies to this message: sidv (Dec 12, 2006 5:05 am)

Replying to: sterki (Dec 11, 2006 6:46 pm) Invoice sounds reasonable to me. There is a 500 rebate in play as well for the 2.0T I think, but only for cars on the lot as of 10/31. Your dealer seems to be more or less in line with the standard Saab 27 mos lease 2.0T deal that Edmunds is showing for December.
#255 of 546 Is there any reason to think Saab will have more incentives in January? by sterki Dec 12, 2006 (5:15 am)
We're so close to the end of December, didn't know if anyone knows of a seasonal pattern. Thanks.

Replying to: danb5 (Nov 30, 2006 12:54 am) Hi Dan. A base 2007 Saab 9-3 Aero has a spread of only $1,700 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice price. This isn't a whole lot of room for a dealer discount, so the discount of $2,800 that you were quoted looks pretty good to me. Just make sure that the dealer you are working with uses Saab's base lease rate of 4.25% to calculate this car's monthly payment and you're in business.   On a side note, it really is not in your best interest to make a $1,500 capitalized cost reduction on this car. Consumers can and should lease any vehicle that they are interested in without making any sort of cap cost reduction. the main reason that I say this is that if your leased vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered, any cap cost reduction that you made on it essentially disappears.   It would be easier for me to give you my opinion of the second deal that you mentioned if you would provide me with its MSRP and selling price.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

Replying to: sterki (Dec 11, 2006 4:22 pm) Greetings sterki. When you say that you haven't done this before, I assume that you mean that you have never leased a vehicle before. If this is the case, 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.   You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the 9-3s that you are interested in leasing. These are important numbers for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing what these cars' selling prices are in relation to their MSRPs you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on them. The second reason is that one needs the selling price and MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion of these deals if you let me know what these numbers are.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum
#258 of 546 Any ideas on Credit. by jreddick Dec 19, 2006 (3:22 pm)
What does it take to get premium financing or lease deals through saab? Does beacon score matter or it some proprietary in-house hocus-pocus?? Had a rough year last year and even though i am through it my credit is not , any thoughts on what I need to shoot for before I try to lease a new car??
#259 of 546 2007 Saab 9-3 by lix5guy Dec 28, 2006 (11:43 am)
Just letting the board know I picked a 9-3 2.0T (manual) for $330/mo, 27mos, 10k miles and $0 down (2300 out of pocket for taxes/fees n other stuff). The car had a sun roof and heated seats (maybe a winter package?) I think the residual was 70% for the 27mos.
