Replying to: manayuk (Mar 14, 2007 7:33 am) This car doesn't have much of a spread between its MSRP and dealer invoice price, so the $1,436 discount that you are bring given on this car is pretty good. Having said this, on March 15th, Saab introduced a new program that provides a $750 cash allowance on '07 9-3s that have been in dealer inventory since December 15, 2006. If your car has been on the lot for that long, make sure that you get the dealer to take this cash into account on your deal. Saab Financial Services' current base lease rate for this car is 3.35%. This is equivalent to a money factor of around .00140. Make sure that the dealer that you are working with uses this money factor to calculate your car's monthly payment. I see that you are considering making a $4,000 down payment on your lease. I always advise consumers against making large down payments on leased vehicles. Those who do risk losing them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though your monthly payment will be a little higher, you would be better off not making any sort of capitalized cost reduction when leasing this car. All you have to pay at lease signing are your first month's payment, a security deposit equivalent to that payment rounded up to the nearest $25 increment, SFSC's $595 acquisition fee, and any required state taxes or fees. You can even roll the acquisition fee into your monthly payment if you want. Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum |

Greetings rjday. What is this car's full MSRP? If you provide me with this number I will be able to see how much of a discount you are being given and can use Saab's current lease program to estimate what your monthly payment should be. Let me know and I'll tell you what I think of the price and work up a sample lease payment for you. Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum |

Replying to: andyking18 (Mar 19, 2007 12:40 am) You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the car 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 this car's selling price in relation to its MSRP you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on it. 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 work up a sample lease payment on the car that you are interested in for you if you let me know what these numbers are. Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum |

Hi Car Man. Thanks for the previous info on the 2.0T sedan. I was wondering what the MF and residuals for the sportcombi were with 12k and 15k miles per year, 24 and 36 months. Thanks.

Hi Car Man. I read 10 steps to leasing a car. thanks for the link. So here's where I'm at. MSRP of $30,095 and with Saab's posted Spring special they want $299/27month term with $2,999 due at lease inception (includes down pmt., acq. fee & first mo. pmt.)My question is, Is this a good deal? I know you say no down payment but I'm feeling that they are going laugh me out of the building and jack up the monthly payment. Any advice is appreciated. Note: I tried at a different dealer to get an Anniv. ed.(31,920 MSRP) but they wouldn't go lower the 380 month with 4000 down. So now I'm trying to get a basic model to keep the payments near $300 month. Thanks again for a great forum One last question: Can you lease cars from a dealer in a different state than I live in? Stone
