Hi j1mbo01. Are you talking about a base 2007 Saab 9-3 2.0T Sedan? If so, Saab Financial Services' current 27 month residual value is 68% for leases with 15,000 miles per year. I would be happy to estimate what your monthly payment should be like on this car right now, but in order for me to do so I need you to provide me with the exact MSRP of the model that you are interested in. Let me know what it is and I'll crunch some numbers for you.

Hi swedishcar. Let's take a look at the deal that you were quoted. The car that you described has a spread of around $1,600 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. The $1,525 discount that you were quoted on it looks very attractive to me. Furthermore, the 3.35% lease rate that you were quoted is right in line with Saab's base rate for this model. If you like the car, I personally don't see any reason not to go for it. If you do end up pulling the trigger on this deal, make sure to stop by the new Edmunds.com Dealer Ratings & Reviews section to share your thoughts on the experience.

"Hi jsf99. I have never personally tried to use GM Card points to lease a Saab, but I don't see why one could not do so."
 
Unfortunately, GM specifically excludes saab and saturn from gm card points. I have a GM card, and these are the only GM cars i like, so it's sort of a waste for me.

I've got an offer for 2007 Saab 9-3 2.0T, auto, metallic paint, cold package, sunroof with MSRP of $30,645 on 27mo lease 10,000 mi/yr of $333/mo with $3,130 down including NY tax. Is it a good deal or should I still shop around? Being a novice to car leasing, any piece of advice will be greatly appreciated.

I think that you could do a bit better on that vehicle, although you should find out what the selling price is, compared to invoice. I have received quotes this past week for leases at invoice.

Aug 14, 2007 (7:06 pm)

Would love any feedback on this lease opportunity. Seems a bit high, but not sure.
 
- 2007 9-3 Wagon 2.0
- MSRP: $30,790.00
- Price: $30,000
 
For a 3 year lease: 12K miles, 3.5% Rate, 59% residual, $452/month with $770 down including tax & reg.
 
For a 2 year lease, same terms 72% residual, so $466/month.
 
thanks.

Car_man,
I was under the impression that dealers had to use the lease rates and residuals put out by Saab. I'm getting quotes for lease rates on a 9-3 sedan from 3.85% to 4.85%. Guess I misunderstood.

I was wondering if anyone has looked into using another lease source (Independent Bank, etc) so you can take advantage of the $4000 rebate? Same idea as what Volvo is doing with their S40 leases right now.

I,m clueless as to how the lease financing works. I see the 3.5% and 56% I need to know how to do the equation to see it in dollars and cents. I have a 2004 Saab Arc (lease) that is due to be up next month. I paid $339.00/month w/15k for 36 months. If soneone can tell me how to figure out the way leases are figured out at the dealership, I'll feel better about not getting ripped off.
