#415 of 546 Re: Advice on what to do with possible lease termination [Car_man] by bluebird23 Sep 14, 2007 (11:12 am)
Replying to: Car_man (Sep 14, 2007 3:48 am) Hi Car_man,   Can you tell me where I can find more details on the Saab early lease termination? Is this only when you purchase/lease another Saab? Or does it apply to any new GM lease or purchase?   Thanks! Replies to this message: Car_man (Sep 17, 2007 1:08 am) saablcp (Sep 18, 2007 11:18 am)

Replying to: Car_man (Sep 14, 2007 3:41 am) Just keep one thing in mind car_man...even though the two point mark-up by the dealer is more often than not done to earn finance profit,GMAC will approve applications which SFSC would have rejected if there are credit issues by accepting the contract with a MANDATORY two point increase to the standard rate.I don't know that this is the case in regard to this person but is a possible explanation.

Replying to: eschule (Sep 10, 2007 11:43 am) Most DIY folks can do that job, using new Brembo (better than the OEMs) rotors, for less than $250. It's an easy job - I would suggest you get out your wrenches.

Replying to: Car_man (Sep 14, 2007 3:41 am) Thanks Carman. This dealer said he would "give me" his "buy rate" of 4.35%. He also tried to tell me that the difference between invoice price and MSRP on this vehicle was only $600! Their price was about $1000 high. I walked.

Replying to: saablcp (Sep 14, 2007 11:51 am) Not the case. I have very good credit score. Replies to this message: saablcp (Sep 18, 2007 11:16 am)

Replying to: bluebird23 (Sep 14, 2007 11:12 am) Hi bluebird23. I'm not aware of any place on the web that contains information on the early lease termination program, but it definitely exists. I am not 100% positive, but I believe that you would be able to get out of your current Saab early if you purchase or lease any other GM vehicle, not just a new Saab.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum Replies to this message: saablcp (Sep 18, 2007 11:18 am)

Replying to: confused13 (Sep 14, 2007 7:35 pm) Then your dealer is simply trying to maximize the profit in the deal by upping the back-end finance reserve. Those extra two points of interest are simply a source of dealer profit that the average consumer would have no way of tracking.I suggest you ask for an explanation.If they don't agree to revert to the standard lease rate take your business elsewhere.

Replying to: Car_man (Sep 17, 2007 1:08 am) It does apply to other GM vehicles.Maximum payments currently forgiven is 2 months....anything in excess of 2 months is simply rolled into the next lease or paid off lump sum by the lessee.
#423 of 546 Almost Done with a Deal on 9-3 Aero Combi by adamz33 Sep 25, 2007 (2:29 pm)
So I decided today to move ahead with the lease on an 07 Saab 9-3 Aero Sport Combi. Filled out the paperwork this AM, gave the dealer a deposit, supposed to pick the car up Thursday. About an hour ago I get a call from the dealer asking if I have another car loan - I said yes (had it since 2003, its set to mature next year, though I am on track to pay it off early). Original loan balance was around $28k, and I am down to a balance owed of $6700.00. I also have a current lease with VW Credit (made by last payment already, car goes back next week). I've never had a late payment on either the current loan or lease, and my credit is just under 700. Anyway, the dealer tells me now that GMAC wants the current loan paid off in full first - huh? He said the finance mgr at the dealership would speak to them in the morning, but given my payment history on the loan and lease, I can't see why they would need this. Any advice?
#424 of 546 Saab 2008 lease rates and residual values? by thegens Oct 14, 2007 (9:40 pm)
Does anyone know what the current lease rates and residual values are for 2008 Saabs?   If they vary by model, I am interested in a 9-3 2.0T Convertible or a 9-3 2.0T Wagon (Combi) or a 9-5 2.3T Wagon (Combi). I'd be interested in a short (24- or 27-month) lease or a longer one (up to 36- or 39-months.) If it matters, I'd like 12,000 miles/year (but could possibly live with 10,000 miles/year.)   Also, since Saab seems to be quoting lease rates as interest percentages (i.e. 3.35%) would it be accurate to convert this number into a "money factor" figure for lease calculation by dividing it by 2400?   THANK YOU for any information anyone can provide!
