Look on your contract for money factor or interest rate. On a lease you need to know the residual value or what they think the car will be worth at the end of the lease (the higher the better since you're paying on the difference between the cap cost reduction=sales price and the residual value, most manufacturers prop up the residual value in order to move metal) but you definitely don't want to purchase it at the end of the lease because the inflated price doesn't match the market price. the cap cost reduction is msrp-any rebates or dealer reductions=sales price. Then you need to know the money factor or interest rate. If it is a wierd number then usally can multiply it by 2400 to arrive at an interest rate. Manufacturers also usually have a low money factor rate also to subsidize leases but this is where dealers can mark it up but you probably got the Saab Spring deal which is a national rate.

Question about Saab depreciation

Hi, I'm posting this here because the people answering questions in this thread seem very knowledgeable . . . I'm considering a Saab 2002 9-3 SE and there's a huge difference between the KBB price ($9200) and the Edmunds price ($6500). This is for a private party sale for a car in good condition with 71,000 miles on it. I'm wondering which price is more realistic.

.........and if you check NADA Blue Book you'll get yet another price!These resources are much more reliable as an info gathering starting point to negotiate intelligently on the price of a new car as opposed to used cars.If used car pricing,as a purchase or a trade,were not subject to things like market conditions,seasonality and regional demands there would be much less of a discrepancy regarding the prices you are seeing as you survey different sites.The accurate price more often than not is going to be somewhere around an average of all three sites pricing.
