Car_man,
 
regarding lease buy rate money factors, are they standard across the board as long as a buyer qualifies for a lease OR are the money factors dependent on someone's credit score?

Car_man,
 
Can you post the October Subaru lease rates when you get them? I'm looking at a 2008 Impreza 2.5i 5-door Premium with the automatic. This would be for 36 months and 10,000 miles a year. Thanks.

Hey akaplan1. I would be happy to give you my opinion on this deal. It would be much easier for me to evaluate it if you were able to provide me with this car's MSRP and selling price first. These are important numbers for anyone who is considering leasing a new vehicle to know. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without knowing these numbers, it is difficult to tell how much of a discount you are being given on the car that you want. They also enable one to use Subaru's lease program to estimate what their monthly payment should be.
 
Let me know what these numbers are and I'll tell you what I think.

Hi mikeogo. I would be happy to work up a lease payment on this car for you using Subaru's current lease program. However, in order for me to do so I need you to provide me with its MSRP and approximate selling price. I can always just assume a certain amount over the invoice price that you helpfully provided if you don't have a selling price in mind. Let me know and I'll crunch some numbers for you.

Hi clarrkkent. Some banks use a pass / fail system where consumers either qualify for their special lease program or they don't. Other banks have tiered lease programs with money factors that vary by credit score. I believe that Subaru Finance uses the pass / fail system, but I am not 100% positive.

Here you go, ericmd. Subaru Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Subaru Impreza 2.5i Wagon Premium with 10,000 miles per year are .00160 and 58%, respectively.

Here's the information that you're looking for, mersadk. Subaru Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a base 2008 Impreza 2.5i Wagon with 15,000 miles per year are .00250 and 69%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are .00160 and 57%. If you were to lease with only 12,000 miles per year, this car's residual values would be 1% higher.

These are the numbers that a dealer gave me for the 36-mo lease 12k/yr on 2008 Impreza Wagon Premum: money factor 0.0019 and 60% residual. When I questioned the money factor number he replied that the 0.00160 number (as per your post) is for the non-premium model only.
 
Is his information correct, or yours??
 
Thanks

2008 Impreza 2.5i Base Sedan wth Man. Trans. Lease by jvost

I wanted an inexpensive, reliable, AWD car for my kids and this car seemed to fit the bill; I leased this car from a Denver dealer at the following terms:
 
MSRP: $17,640.00
Discount: $ 710.54
Discounted Price: $16,929.46 (inc. D&H of $399.95)
Acquisition Fee: $ 595.00
Capitalized Cost: $17,524.46
Downpayment: $0
Sec. Dep. $0
Miles: 10K/Yr
term: 36 Mos.
Money Factor: 0.00190
Residual%: 63%
Payment: $232.50
(B4 sales tax)
 
All in all this seemed like an ok deal considering my only out of pocket was the first month's payment of $232.50. The high residual of 63% and the reasonable MF of 0.00190 made for a low payment.
 
I wanted the Premium Package, but that increased the cap. cost $1500 and decreased the residual to 61%. That would have increased the payment $53.65/Mo. to $286.15, and I didn't judge it to be worth the extra.
 
Every dealer I contacted quoted MF of 0.00190 on 36 mo. deals; if there's a 0.00160 rate out there as quoted in this forum I couldn't find the car and/or terms on which it was available.
 
By the way, the sedan had higher residuals than the hatchback. On a 36 mo. 10k deal the residuals were 59% for the base model and 58% for the premium package.
