#507 of 546 Re: May Lease Deals? Anyone out here? [dadozer] by chazbug May 20, 2008 (11:52 am)
Replying to: dadozer (May 19, 2008 12:25 pm) The comment about not putting any money down is correct. However, in my experience with a couple of Saab dealers, they're not very pro "sign and drive" w/no money down. They try to convince you that it's a "cash flow" issue. Yes, by putting more down upfront you're not paying as much in taxes in the end. However, putting money down puts you at risk as was stated, and, that's money you can't invest elsewhere. With no money down your monthly price will be higher than $368/month--figure mid $400s. The price that was quoted to you with money down seems about the going rate. This past December I put $3000 down and pay roughtly $386/month for a 9-3 automatic, moonroof, cold weather package, premium package, jet black metallic, standard radio, standard seats, standard wheels. If I had to do over again, I would have gone with an '07 60th Anniversary Edition last September, which I could have gotten with the Aero type seats and leather for $340/month with that kind of money down. Or, if you're not in a hurry, wait until the summer/early Fall--if sales are down this year as others have stated, they'll start having their "Fire Sale" and perhaps you'll get an even better deal.

Replying to: tjones39 (Apr 22, 2008 11:18 pm) Hi tjones39. Saab's current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 9-3 2.0T Sedan with 15,000 miles per year are 4.35% and 69%, respectively. The lease rate for an otherwise identical 27 month lease is the same, but its residual value would be 1% lower. If you were to lease with only 12,000 miles per year, both of these residual values would be 1% higher. The $2,500 dealer cash that is currently available on this car is not compatible with its special lease program.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: theras (Apr 23, 2008 7:40 am) Hello theras. You can get the 2.0T data that you are interested in from my previous post. Saab's current base lease rate and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 9-3 Aero Sedan with 10,000 miles per year are 4.35% and 73%. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are 4.35% and 62%. As a current Saab owner or lessee, you are eligible for a $1,000 cash incentive on the '08 9-3.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum Replies to this message: theras (May 22, 2008 12:36 pm) Car_man (Jun 13, 2008 2:31 am) wpbond (Jul 08, 2008 11:41 pm) Car_man (Jul 11, 2008 1:52 am)
#510 of 546 Focus on leasing people by Car_man HOST May 21, 2008 (3:03 am)
Hi everyone. While the debate about the quality of Volkswagen's vehicles compared to that of other manufacturers' is interesting, it is off-topic. Please try to keep the discussion focused on leasing Saabs, specifically the 9-3. Thanks.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: Car_man (May 21, 2008 2:55 am) I appreciate the assistance Car_Man. I have decided to hold off on Saab's pull ahead offer due to model availability, but may be seeking an update on your information in a month or two. Thanks again! Replies to this message: Car_man (Jun 13, 2008 2:31 am)
#512 of 546 2008 Saab Aero 4-Door Sedan by saablease May 24, 2008 (9:28 am)
I am looking to lease a 2008 Saab Aero Sedan (w/ Automatic Transmission) w/ 15K miles/year. Since the Aero already includes many upgrades, I would not need any additional options. What would I expect a good deal to be on the sales price as well as my monthly payment and down payment?   My initial research suggests that the dealers in S. Florida have very limited quantities of the 2008 Aero 4-door sedan.   Thanks, in advance.
#513 of 546 Lease Quote Saab 9-3 Turbo X by dammitjim1 May 29, 2008 (3:18 pm)
Hi all,   A local dealer on LI has 2 Turbo X models in stock, one in auto, 1 manual, both with Cold Weather and Touring packages. I opted for the 6-speed and requested an internet quote. I didn't get back complete info such as the buy price the lease is based on, money factor or residual, but what I did get back was enough to make me head for the door, so to speak. Here it is:   $619 per month X 39 12K miles per year and $4,141 up-front   27 month lease would run $672 per month with $3,725 up-front   Paying that kind of money for any Saab, even a limited edition model, strikes me as being just about nuts. I am working to get the rest of the info that led to that pricing, but I would definitely not move on this car with those numbers.   Chime in and let me know what you think - would anybody take a Turbo-X with those kind of lease numbers?

#514 of 546 9-3 2.0t Sportcombi June by dilbert2 Jun 11, 2008 (10:42 am)
Can anyone give the residual & money factor for a 36 and 39 month 12,000 per year 9-3 2.0t sportcombi Lease. Dealer has told me that there is only $900 dollars markup in these cars and their second pencil had a $1306 discount. How much markup really is in these without getting into dealer cash?   is this fair? 39 mo. 12k / yr. $495.00 /mo. $34,615 MSRP $33,309.84 Selling Price $1500 cash + $502 GM card = $2002 + $495(first month) drive off. so $2497 due at signing Replies to this message: Car_man (Jun 13, 2008 2:42 am) dilbert2 (Jun 13, 2008 7:14 am) Car_man (Jul 11, 2008 1:22 am)

Replying to: dammitjim1 (May 29, 2008 3:18 pm) Take a Turbo-X at those numbers compared to what?How much less is a comparably equipped 330ix going to run you?The new Audi 3.0 Quattro when available?My impression from your statement of "that kind of money for any Saab" seems to suggest a predisposition that this car is inherently inferior to other brands in this segment.Might I suggest a test drive......then see if you still feel this way.
