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).

Saab Lease - Is it a good deal in NY/NJ metro by crzycool22
Jan 14, 2007 (3:26 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.

Is this a "good deal?" by shawnmgross

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!

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!

Hi scottyb1. I would be happy to give you an idea of what sort of lease payment to expect on the new 9-3 that you are interested in. In order for me to do so, I'm going to need some additional information from you first. this info includes how long you want to lease for, how many miles per year you need to be able to drive your car, its MSRP, and its approximate selling price. Let me know and I will crunch some numbers to come up with an approximate payment for you.
 
Saab Financial Services Corp.'s current base lease rate for any lease of a 2007 9-3 Aero Sedan up to 48 months is 3.35%.

Hi afaulkner. The lease rate that you were quoted for this vehicle is right in line with Saab's base lease rate for it. This is always a good thing. Now let's look at this vehicle's price. A 2007 Saab 9-3 Sport Combi 2.0T only has a spread of around $1,500 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice and Saab is not currently providing any lease cash on it. You were offered a discount of $819 on this vehicle. That probably puts you at around $700 or so over invoice, which isn't bad. You may be able to beat this deal by a couple hundred dollars if you are in an area that has a decent level of competition and you shop around but there isn't a whole lot of room to play with here. Make sure to stop by the following discussion to see how much other community members have paid for similar vehicles lately: "Saab 9-3 : Prices Paid & Buying Experience".

Hi shawnmgross. The best way to tell if you are getting a good deal on a lease is to look at the vehicle's selling price and lease rate. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Shop around and negotiate the lowest possible price for the 9-3 that you want and then have the dealer that gives you that price calculate your lease payment using its base lease rate. If you tell me which trim level of the 9-3 you want, I can tell you want its current base lease rate should be.

Hi CarMan,
Thanks for the reply. I actually drove the 9-3 Aero and wasn't impressed to say the least. The search continues....
 
Thanks again!

Lease deal in NJ by rajar
Jan 29, 2007 (8:03 pm)

I'm first time leasing 2007 9-3 2.0T. Please let me know your thoughts of these numbers I got today over the phone from a dealer in NJ.
MSRP: 32440, CAP-cost: 30900, residual value: 22000(68%) inception charge:$1917 (includes first payment, tax, doc fee, reg. fee and something else I can't remember) monthly payment: $435-/ 27 mo./15k miles money factor 3.5%.
 
I have the following questions:
1)Is the money factor 3.5% sounds reasonable?
2) what can be negotiated ( i.e CAP cost, miles. money factor.. etc.). I would like more mileage than 15k.
3) Have I got all the information above or there is something else I should ask?
4) Is Inception Charge is different than down payment because he never mentioned a down payment? Is down payment an optional or is it required?
 
Thanks in advance.

a 2007 93 2.0T with MSRP of $32,440 sounds like a fully loaded car. All the factors you describe above sound good, but sounds like NJ tax of 7% is in monthly pmy based on my calc. Inception charge and down payment are the same. normally you should only put down 1st pmt and dmv fees if possible.
email me and I will give you the name of someone in NJ to use that gave me a great deal. I picked up a 2007 9-3 in Titan Gray, Manual, Cold Pkg, Sunroof, 10k miles/year. $326 per month - $731 out of pocket. (Includes 1st month and fees) The MSRP on my car was a little lower - no premium package and no premium sound system. also only 1oK miles.
residual $20,742 - 71%
Good luck
