Subaru Lease by f8u1e

Does anyone have the lease terms on a Subaru 2.5X Premium with All-Weather, manual trans., Popular Equipment Group 1B, fog lamp kit and All Weather Floor Mats? I understand a two-year lease is possible and would prefer that term as I am totally new to the Subaru.
Thanks.

09 Limited Lease Quote by milzo

Got my first quote yesterday for an 09 2.5x Limited. 15,000 miles. Dealer quoted:
 
Invoice/ sale price $25,544
Money Factor = .00175
Residual = 59% = $16220.20
Tax rate = 7.75%
Payment = $379 inc tax
$713 1st payment & fees
 
When I run these #'s on my own I come to $357/mo. Not sure why the difference. Also should I expect to be able to get the price under invoice? I was thinking I should be able to get about $1000 under?

That seems like a really good price, makes me wonder how necessary leather is. Thanks for the post.

checking quote on XT Limited '09 by edgrimley

Hi there,
 
We are at the end of a long road of research and leaning toward the 09 Forester over the Rav4. Haven't test drove the Mitsubishi Outlander and the CRV appears to be too underpowered. Anyway, that's a topic for another forum.
 
Seem to have gotten a good lease offer today, but they didn't have a color we liked and tried to get us to walk out with a red one we didn't want. Here are the deets:
 
XT Limited w/ Nav
 
- $28,995 estimated total cost
- 39 months
- 12,000 miles
- residual value and MF - unknown - we didn't get that far
- $1,000 prepayment (not sure of breakdown of that cost)
- total payments with tax $379
 
negotiated them from $2650 inital payment down to 1,000, and from 10k miles to 12k.
 
Edmunds calculator pegs this at $447 - looks like we had a good offer?
 
Thanks,
Eric

Forester XT Limited by edgrimley

...update to my previous post with more data.
 
XT Limited w/ Leather and no Nav. Includes autodim mirror, cargo cover.
 
Pricing at/near invoice - 27,700
MF - .00175
Residual around 61% - 17k
 
36 months
Either -
 
No cash down, $716 incl. DMV and first month
$372 + tax = 403
 
2,000 down (aprox.1200 cash + DMV and first month)
$364 incl. tax
 
includes gap insurance
 
Both of these look like good deals to me for the XT Limited. The starting price is below Edmunds TMV, good residual.
 
Does the gap insurance cover the money down, if something happens to the car?
 
Make sense to get a Lojack (we are in a high theft area) if you have gap insurance and a lease?
 
Thanks,
Eric

Hi f8u1e. Subaru does offer two year leases, but it is not currently providing support on them. As a result, you will be much better off going with a three year lease. If you were to lease a 2009 Subaru Forester 2.5X Premium for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00175 and 60%, respectively.

Hi milzo. Subaru is not currently providing any cash incentives on leases of the 2009 Forester. As a result, dealer invoice is a very attractive selling price on a leased Forester right now. I highly doubt that you will be able to get one for $1,000 under invoice.
 
I would be happy to work up a lease payment on this vehicle for you to double check the dealer's calculations, however I cannot do so without knowing its full MSRP. Let me know what this number is and I'll run a payment for you.
