MSRP: $39,468, Cap, 34,625, Bank Fees, $595, Trade in credit of $495 and a tax rate of 8.375. The warrenty is still 36/36. I'm just going to risk the extra 1k miles. I think the dealer said there was a 1000 dealer cash which i recieved. I'm going to sign the paperwork and pick up the car today. The best deal they offered for a non-demo with same features (nav/dvd) was $429 or $405 w/ only nav. All with no $ down, just first payment and dmv fees of 187.5. Hope that helps.
After looking at the numbers it looks like a better deal than the SOA special lease with taxes and down payment rolled into the monthly, so I guess the lease deal offered is negotiable if you get a good salesman to work with.

I would sign for your deal right now if it was offered - my latest offer is 7 pass limited no nav or res for 369/mo plus tax (10% in PA) - at this point I think the nav and RES would add around $ 45 / month - I am going to wait until April to see what addl amounts of discount they may have - please let me know how you like the car.

Sol Cal lease help

Hi all,
New to leasing and to Subaru. I’m interested in leasing a 7Pass LTD B9 with Nav. I live in the San Diego area and there is a special that claims $4,000.00 Off MSRP - $1,000.00 Rebate = Total Savings $5,000.00. What would be a good lease on such a vehicle and has anyone leased a B9 in So. Cal (7.75% sales tax)?
Also, I tend to buy cars with cash and hold on to them for 8-10 yrs but truth be told the buy and hold model is getting old given that family needs change. This car would be for my wife and two kids (4 and 2 yr old) which I think would fit them well and provide all the current safety features I could possibly ask for. Most SUV are too big but the B9 seems just right for a small family of four with the occasional in-law visit  . My concerns about leasing are…
1. What happens in case of car accident or theft?
2. I expect to put at the most 10k miles on it. So given a 12k lease, is it still worth leasing? What are the implications of turning in a low mile car?
3. Should I care what the money factor and residuals are, if I tend to simply part with the car at the end of the lease?
4. Is there a way to determine the length of care ownership that makes leasing a better option over buying new?
5. Are there any “gochas” to look out for in leasing?
Any help with the above would be greatly appreciated.

Hi chris_tx. The selling prices of leased vehicles are always negotiable, just as if you were paying cash or financing. The fact that a manufacturer is advertising a lease on a particular model does not prevent one from negotiating its selling price. In fact, I would go as far to say that smart shoppers can usually beat the deals that manufacturers advertise. If one thinks about it, it makes sense. An automaker would make its dealers pretty angry if it advertised the lowest possible lease on a car or truck. Shop around and negotiate as low a selling price as possible for the Tribeca that you want. Then have the dealer use Subaru's current base lease money factor and residual value to calculate your vehicle's monthly payment. On the model that you are considering, a base '06 B9 Tribeca 5-Passenger, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year is currently .00070 and 57%, respectively. For a lease with 12,000 miles per year, the residual value would be 1% higher.

In addition to chris_tx comments the benefits of leasing is that if you intend to keep a car for about 3 years or less, you can get into a car for a lower monthly payment compared to purchasing.
If you use the car for business, there are definite tax advantages to leasing.
Regarding a total loss (Accident or theft) most leases today include gap loss coverage. What this means if the car is totalled and your insurance company settlement is less than balance owed on the lease, the leasing company covers the difference.

Damer- I got it loaded....the 7 Passenger limited comes pretty much loaded as it is, but besides the roof rack, it came in Satin White Pearl with Grey leather, included Navigation, Auto Dimming Mirror/Compass/ Puddle lights, Rear bumper cover, Rear seat back cargo net, and the upgraded alarm. The only option it did not have was the DVD (which was fine with me). I only put down $550 for the roof rack, tags, registration, and other fees. I have not seen anyone on this board beat the $367/month I am paying for my Tribeca Limited.

Thanks for the info, no doubt you have the best deal going. I'm trying to get a similar deal on a 5 pass limited w/ tow, puddle, etc... wish me luck.

Well I was not as fortunate as others. My attempt was on a 5 pass limited, puddle, tow, etc MSRP 34,523. Best deal was 1,057. down and 373. plus tax a month for 36 mths at 12k a year. Dealer claims this is selling a invoice of 31,967. and tier 1 lease with SMF. As you guessed i'm not getting the Tribeca. No wonder they can't sell more of these, they had 14 on the lot. Looks like its a Murano...
