Extra Miles

I will be trying to do a lease that has 22K miles per year in it. When doing the computations, where does the additional cost for the mileage go in the equation?
I'm thinking about a 36 month lease of a 2.0T, manual, Premium (17"), Cold, Moonroof, metallic paint. Invoice is $29,495. So...I'm thinking:
Sell Price: $29,800
Cap Cost: $29,800
Res Value (63%) $18,774
MF .00140
Payment (incl 6% tax)$415
Where does the additional cost for the mileage (.15/mile???) $3150 get factored?
Also...does it sound like an acceptable deal? Should I be able to do better in CT?

You're very welcome, rjday. Are we talking about the same car? A 2007 Saab 9-3 2.0T equipped as you stated only has an MSRP of around $31,000, not $41,000. Did you mean $31,xxx or are you talking about a Saab 9-5?

Hey sdoo25. Saab Financial Services' current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2007 Saab 9-3 SportCombi 2.0T with 15,000 miles per year are 3.5% and 69%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are 3.5% and 56%. If you were to lease this car with only 12,000 miles per year, its residual values would be 1% higher for the 24 month term and 2% higher for the 36 month term. As you can see, Saab publishes lease rates instead of money factors for the vehicles that it leases. You can convert its published lease rates into approximate money factor equivalents by dividing them by 2400.

You're welcome Stone. Taking a look at the selling price of the car that you want is probably the best way to tell how good a deal you are getting on it. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash or financing. The lower your car's selling price is, the lower its lease payment will be. Shop around for the lowest possible selling price on the 9-3 that you want. You should be able to get one for pretty close to dealer invoice if you are in an area that has a decent level of competition. Once you have a price that you are comfortable with, have the dealer that you are working with use Saab Financial Services' base lease rate to calculate your monthly payment.
You do not have to lease your vehicle from a dealer in your home state, but you cannot avoid paying your home state's sales tax rate on it.

Welcome k9prof. Even though it is your first time leasing, you are off to a good start. You were smart to find out the selling price of the car that you want. The price that you were quoted looks good to me. Just make sure that the dealer that you are working with uses Saab's Financial Services Corp.'s base lease rate of 3.35% for this model to calculate your monthly payment and you're in business.

You're right, bobbya. The $3,000 customer cash that Saab is currently providing on the 2007 9-3 is not compatible with its special lease program.

Here's the info that you're looking for, jefhack. This car's lease program varies depending upon how long you lease it for. For now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease. Let me know if you want something different. Saab Financial Services' current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Saab 9-3 2.0T Sedan with 10,000 miles per year are 3.35% and 61%, respectively.

Hi rhauer1. What is this car's selling price? this is a very important number for you to find out. Without it, it is difficult to tell how much of a discount you are being given on the 9-3 that you want and if there is more room left to negotiate. Let me know what this number is and I'll tell you what I think.
