#256 of 546 Re: Lease deals on a 9-3 Aero in california? (2007) [danb5] by Car_man HOST Dec 14, 2006 (3:33 am)
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.
#260 of 546 Does anyone know GM discount info? by scottyb1 Jan 02, 2007 (8:25 am)
Looking to lease a 9-3 Aero and I have no idea what a fair payment would be with the GM discount factored in. Does this affect the sale price, money factor or what? Also does anyone know current risiduals? It seems like the money facotr is going to be 4.25%, is that correct? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

#261 of 546 Leasing a 07 9-3 SC/2.0 by afaulkner Jan 04, 2007 (1:46 pm)
Does this jibe? (+Prem 16 pckg/roof rails) 36mth 12000mi * monthly: 463.11 * due sign: 597.36 * cap cost: 31,391 * residual: 58% * money factor: 3.5 * MSRP 33,210   I test drove one and liked it, and then sent out a request for quote, so no negotiating has happened yet.

Replying to: scottyb1 (Jan 02, 2007 8:25 am) GM discount only impacts the sales price, not the money factor. You, or whoever you are getting the discount from, can download a complete pricelist from the GMfamilyfirst website. You get a basic amount off of MSRP, a % off of options as well as any incentives available to the general public. Also, most 07 Saabs had an additional $500 off for GM employee discount eligible purchases/leases through the end of 06, but I don't know if this is still true now that it is 07.   Unless rates have recently risen, you can probably do better on that money factor-I went to two dealers in Nov 06 and one quoted me (9-3 Aero SC) a money factor around what you were quoted but the other was willing to go into the mid 3's (I forget the exact details but they've been posted on this board previously).
#263 of 546 Saab Lease - Is it a good deal in NY/NJ metro by crzycool22 Jan 14, 2007 (2:26 pm)
I am looking to lease a 2007 9-3 2.0T, I only want a cold weather package, sunroof, Metallic paint. MSRP should be $29,295. Edmunds is showing others paying $27,130. a discount of $2,165. (I am a returning leasee with Saab) I am seeking 27 months at around $310-$320 per month (10K miles) with minumum at signing. 1st month and DMV fees only. $600-$700 down max.   Is this reasonable to negotiate or am I off. It seems right based on the current national offering by saab and the dealer tells me I get an additional $500 from Saab as a returning leasee. any help is appreciated. Will sign today to get this deal. Replies to this message: saablcp (Jan 22, 2007 12:53 pm)
#264 of 546 Is this a "good deal?" by shawnmgross Jan 21, 2007 (9:12 pm)
I know the expression "good deal" is quite subjective, so perhaps I'm asking "does this seem in line with what others have leased their saab 9-3's for?"   MSRP: 28,745 Lease: 239/mo Cap Cost: 1,999 27 mo/10K miles All other fees extra - title, tax, delivery, bank fees etc.   If I was looking for an additional 2-5K miles a year what would I expect to pay?   Interested to get your feedback. This is in the Boston area.   Many thanks! Replies to this message: Car_man (Jan 24, 2007 3:23 am)

Replying to: crzycool22 (Jan 14, 2007 2:26 pm) No,it isn't realistic.The discount you are looking for is below the dealers net/net cost(Invoice minus dealer reserve money)The SAAB national lease ad is on a similarly priced car and requires about $3,300 to $3,600 total at inception and only gives the dealer about $200 above invoice and leases at $299 plus tax.Your are right about one thing ...if you can find a dealer to do that deal,definitely sign today!LOL!
