Replying to: chuck68516 (Mar 13, 2009 6:53 pm) I think what you are saying is the "real" value of the two $35,000 cars are $31K & $26K repectively but you can lease the MKZ with the higher real value for less? My "quick" factor cannot give you this information and that's when you need to find the residual & money factors, Again, it just points you quickly to the better leases and is probably more accurate to use within a particular model. I also recognize that some options are removed when calculating the residual as these are considered to be worthless after 3 years. Those would affect the actual payment byt not my Lease Factor. BTW, I price a car on Edmunds to obtain the MSRP & TMV. I then try to get the factors from this forum and then plug those 4 values plus the local method and sales tax rate into a downloaded lease calculator to get a lease that should be acceptable and offer it to the dealer. Is there anything wrong with this strategy? Note, I discussions in this forum, I'd suggest that all quotes be exclusive of sales tax as not every state implements them the same way. Some states just add the going rate to the MSRP, others might add it to the CAP cost, and here in PA, our 6% Sales Tax is not used at all. You just calculate the lease without any taxes and then add 9% Lease Tax to that lease cost to determine your payment.

Replying to: lch77 (Mar 14, 2009 7:09 am) TMV is worthless. You don't shop TMV. You aim for the best price - TMV is a sucker's bet. Even when leasing you look for the lowest sale price (if there is money/rebates/trunk cash then you want invoice minus that amount). |

I recently got the $199/month-noDownPayment option from Subaru. No worries about yearly registration, windshield wipers, fluid, bulbs, any maintenance, tires, all included with the Subaru Lease (it even says it in the brochure). 1 single oil change after 10,000 miles, that's all I have to pay for myself. In addition, I am driving a new car every 3 years. Only backdraw is the full coverage insurance wise, but still.

Replying to: Car_man (Mar 19, 2009 2:14 am) Thanks for the info in #229, but in post #228 you said you calculated "around $301" for that outback Sport but you didn't actually list the factors. I used 58% and 0.00220 and go $300.86. In post #229 you listed 58% and 0.00280 as the factors for an Imprezza sedan, not the OBS. Anyway, could you please reconfirm the factors for the Outback Sport for both 12K & 15K miles. |

Replying to: Car_man (Mar 19, 2009 2:12 am)  Love the used 335i I bought instead but I feel the WRX is a better car in many respects: more room, better build quality, better engineering, lower maintenance costs. The 09 WRX is a great car.
