Replying to: cdnj1 (Oct 24, 2006 2:57 pm) Hi cdnj1. The lease program that you were quoted for this vehicle looks about right to me. Furthermore, you are bring given nearly a $2,000 discount on it. This looks like a reasonable price to me, but make sure to stop by the following discussion to see how much other community members have paid for similar vehicles recently: "Subaru Forester: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". I personally don't see anything wrong with this deal.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum
#23 of 369 forester by eire2x Jan 11, 2007 (6:46 pm)
Hey CarMan- I am looking to lease a 2007 Subaru Forester in upstate New York. A salesman gave me the following numbers on a Forester 2.5X. MSRP: 22,419, but he told me he was bringing it down to $21,566. There is a $1500 rebate, which brings it down to just over $20,000. Residual value he told me was 49%. He gave me 2 quotes. For 15,000 miles/year, 39 months, with $1,548.62 (first payment and taxes) plus plates up front, the monthly lease payment is $330.37. If I roll the taxes into the monthly payments and only pay $432.91 up front, the monthly payment is $365.41. Any thoughts on this? Are there any other numbers you need before you can tell me if this is a good deal? Thanks for your help. Tim Replies to this message: Car_man (Jan 24, 2007 4:01 am)

Replying to: eire2x (Jan 11, 2007 6:46 pm) Hey Tim. So you are being given a dealer discount of around $850 on the Forester that you want to lease on top of the $1,500 lease cash. A base 2007 Subaru Forester 2.5X only has a spread of around $1,180 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. So a discount of $850 isn't bad. It's probably only a couple hundred dollars over invoice. This price looks good to me, but you can always stop by the following discussion to see how much other community members have paid for similar vehicles lately: "Subaru Forester: Prices Paid & Buying Experience".   Take this price and make sure that this dealer uses Subaru Finance's buy rate lease money factor to calculate your monthly payment and you're in business. Subaru Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2007 Subaru Forester 2.5X with 15,000 miles per year are .00260 and 49%, respectively.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

Replying to: Car_man (Aug 31, 2005 4:19 pm) On Jan 2nd I was able lease a Forester X with Premium package for $265 a month including ttl. This was for a 24 month lease, 10K per year and $3000 down. I think the selling price for the lease was about $21500. The leasing program was not that good compared to the mazda CX-7, but I wanted the full time awd so I went with it.   I am hoping a hybrid version will be availbe when my lease is up.

Replying to: au1994 (Mar 26, 2007 4:36 am) Hi au1994. What is this vehicle's MSRP? This number will show me how much of a discount you are being given and it will enable me to use Subaru's current lease program to estimate what your monthly payment should be. Let me know and I'll tell you what I think of this deal.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

#30 of 369 Lease deal question - Forester X Premium by 98in_cuse May 18, 2007 (4:15 pm)
Hi Car_man, I am looking at a lease deal with trade-in valued at $2800. The information that I have is:   MSRP $25086 Inv. $23697 36 mo./10K yr. $330.35/mo., no initial payment except trade-in   I would like the "buy rate lease money factor" and residual value for this deal, but also wanted your opinion. It looks like about $2000 was taken off if I was to actually purchase the car, but I am also "waiting for the hybrid". To buy this car outright I was quoted $21636.26 including taxes and fees. Which is the better deal? I'd rather go with the lease but want to know if this is a good deal. It sounds like jefbak got a really good one!   Thanks, Kathy Replies to this message: Car_man (May 21, 2007 2:07 am)
