Hey jefflawyer. Here's the information that you're looking for. Saab Financial Services' current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Saab 9-7X 4.2i with 15,000 miles per year are 3.08% and 60%, respectively. 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.
 
The 9-7X is not a very popular truck. There's nothing really wrong with it, but in my opinion there are a lot of other trucks out there that one can lease for a similar payment that I would personally rather lease.

Hi maradag. You're not pestering me at all. I'm always glad to help. I am not aware of any resource that provides information on manufacturers' current lease programs to the general public. Saab Financial Services' current base lease rate and residual value for a 27 month lease of a 2007 Saab 9-7X 4.2i with 15,000 miles per year are 3.08% and 66%, respectively.
 
When negotiating your lease on this truck make sure to take the $1,000 lease cash that Saab is currently providing on it into account. If you are interested in a unit that has been in dealer inventory since December 15th or earlier, there is an additional $750 bonus cash that you can use to your advantage. These cash incentives will help you to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost.

Hi Carman,
I was wondering if you could mention a couple of the other alternatives out there for similar pricing which you feel are better vehicles/deals?
 
Also, I am weiging two choices: A 2006 97-x with 6k miles that was an "executive" vehicle/ It's list is about $42k, but I amoffered it for $28,118.
Choice two is a 2007 with a list of 41,235 that I can buy for $34,300.
 
Which do you think is a better offer?

Hi suburbman. Other trucks that I would consider if I was looking at the Saab 9-7X include the BMW X3, Volkswagen Touareg, Cadillac SRX, Acura RDX, Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Highlander, and the Honda Pilot. In my opinion, these trucks are either better values or better trucks than the 9-7X.

Car_man,Please answer this question honestly:Is your stated opinion regarding the value and quality of the 9-7X vis a vis other competing models based on actual hands-on experience driving a 9-7X 0r just based on the assumption that it is a rebadged Chevy Trailblazer?Please be frank.

Hi saablcp. I have driven the 9-7X. I have nothing personally against Saabs. In fact, I am a former Saab lessee. The 9-7X is based upon the Chevrolet Trailblazer, but that's not why I said that some of the vehicles on the list that I mentioned are better trucks or better deals right now. There's nothing wrong with the 9-7X, but I personally would rather have a BMW X3, Volkswagen Touareg, Acura MDX, or a Toyota 4Runner over it. Without getting into specifics, I just like them better. As far as the deals go, the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander will cost over $100 per month less and the Acura RDX will cost $50 per month less than the 9-7X to lease right now.

Hi avalon2000. Let's crunch some numbers and see what we come up with. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2007 Saab 9-7X 5.3i that has an MSRP of $44,080 and a capitalized cost of $36,731 through Saab Financial Services' Corp. right now for 27 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $352. The payment for an otherwise identical 36 month lease would be $437.

Hi Car_man. That deal seems unusually good. $352 w/ $0 down for 27 months? That puts it in-line with a couple other promotions at the moment (Dodge Durango, Santa Fe) for significantly less valuable cars.
 
What residual and finance numbers are you using for that?
 
Also, without getting too far off topic -- any SUVs / XUVs you find to be extremely good lease deals at the moment? (Noticed that you recommended the Toyota 4Runner and Acura RDX above).

The original CarsDirect quote was for a sale only, not lease. But did cut a good deal:
 
2007 Saab 9-7X 5.3i
27 mo.
15K miles yr.
no money down [other than usual acq. fee, 1st mo. rent, $450 GMAC security deposit, tags, doc. paid in cash]
additional options: factory installed navigation, dealer installed mud flaps and back up radar sensors.
cost per month including NYC/NYS sales tax of 8.375%: $444
 
Interesting, the top of line Honda Pilot with Navigation was quoted 24 mo. lease at $689 plus tax and the 36 mo. lease at $531 plus tax, both 15K miles yr. And can't match the handling of the Saab, as the Honda has the tires of a toy bicycle, and NO OnStar.
