March lease program for March by glevitt
Mar 04, 2007 (8:35 pm)

Hi Car_Man
 
Curious if you know what the lease program is for March for a Impreza WRX Wagon. I can find a program for the i wagon and work backwards to the money factor, but I can't find anything for the WRX. I am thinking either a 24-27 month lease or 36. 10-12k mi/year. If you have some rough figures I could put into a model that would be great. Many Thanks!

Looking to Lease an '07 2.5i Impreza Wagon by thefinz

Does anyone know if Car_Man's numbers of .00135 and 59% are still accurate. I am looking at leasing an '07 2.5i Impreza Wagon with a MSRP of $19701.00 and a selling point of 17641.24.
 
According to my calculations on this should put me at somewhere around $217 a month. I'm looking at going out and pricing very soon, but I want to know if my estimates are accurate. I'm looking in the range of a 3 year lease at 15k mile per year.
 
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!

Car_Man,
 
Looking to check and see if the .00135 and 59% apply to current deals on the WRX regular edition and the special edition. If not do you know what the current rates are?
 
Currently being quoted at 56% and .0024 for 15K/year with a 36 term.
 
Thanks for the help.

Hi frankfrank. Dealer invoice is a good price for a 2007 Subaru WRX STi. I am not personally all that familiar with Subaru Finance's credit requirements, but the fact that you have a co-signed definitely can't hurt. It is difficult for me to say whether you will be approved to lease this car through Subaru's captive finance company. Unfortunately, given the fact that you are going through a bankruptcy right now, there is a very good chance that you will not. If you don't qualify, you may want to consider paying cash or making as large a down payment as you possibly can on a used decent domestic car, like a Ford Taurus. By spending as little as possible on your new vehicle you can use the money that you save to get your finances back in good shape.

Hi glevitt. Here's the info that you're looking for. If you were to lease a 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon through Subaru Finance right now for 24 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00280 and 64%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are .00245 and 55%. If you were to lease with only 10,000 miles per year, these residual values would be 1% higher.

Hi thefinz. Subaru Finance's March buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5i Wagon with 15,000 miles per year are .00135 and 59%, respectively just like they were last month. Using this lease program and the prices that you mentioned in your post, an MSRP of $19,701 and a selling price of $17,641, I estimate that this vehicle's zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $207.

Hey tornadoredr32. This car's numbers are right around what you were quoted. Subaru Finance's current 36 month, 15,000 mile per year buy rate lease money factor and residual value for the 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX Sedan are .00245 and 56%, respectively.

Subaru Impreza 2.5i Wagon Lease by researchworks
Mar 24, 2007 (5:30 am)

If I got a quote I can live with, do I still need to negotiate the selling price and money factor? I'm not sure I understand how to use these numbers and don't feel comfortable negotiating terms I don't understand.
 
If I don't negotiate these things, is it true that I can owe money on the back end of the lease?
 
Thanks!

Switching from a leased Impreza to a leased Impreza WRX by bdumitru

Dear hosts and knowledgeable people around,
 
 I am new to this forum, although I'm old to Edmunds.com. I hope you'll find the time to help a newbie.
 
 In May 2006, I leased a 2006 2.5i manual Sport Wagon. The car is great; however, I am seriously considering terminating the lease early and instead starting a new lease for a 2007 WRX Limited sedan (manual).
 
 My current lease details (on the '06 2.5i Sp. Wagon):
 - MSRP: 18,833; high, I guess;
 - net capitalized cost: 17,004 (after rebates, $1,000 down payment, and negociations); good, I guess;
 - residual: 8,637; low, I now realize;
 - depreciation: remaining 8,367;
 - APR: 2.88% (i.e. money factor: 0.0012); good, I think;
 - term: 48 months;
 - mileage: 15,000/ year;
 
 So now I pay: (depreciation 174 + rent charge 31) * (tax 110%) = 225 a month.
 
 The car is almost 1 year old, with 11,500 miles on it; exceptional condition, practically no wear and tear.
 
 After this long introduction, my questions:
 
 (A) If I return this car tomorrow to the dealership (good one, Day Apollo near Pittsburgh, PA), how much of a hit should I expect? In 4 years, 60,000 miles it would have depreciated $8,368... How much has the car depreciated in 1 year, 11,500 miles, in your opinion? I know I paid 174 * 12 = $2,088 towards depreciation, so I'd subtract that from your number and get an idea of how hard I'll be hit.
 
 (B) Will it help (financially) that I want to lease another Subaru, and that I'm all good with their captive company? All I want is a more powerful car
 
 (C) For a 2007 Impreza WRX Limited (manual!), what invoice should I try to obtain; what residual value; what APR (can I get the same low 2.88%)? I'd do 48 months, 15,000 miles/year, same as I have right now.
 
 (D) Any advice on when should I be doing this, i.e. on when good incentives might show? May, June, July? I'm 100% I want the '07 (completely personal preference on the redesign for '08).
 
 (E) Will insurance go higher (by a lot)? I'm 26, not married, no kids, good job, okay driving record (speeding ticket last year, 10mph extra after many negociations).
 
 I am sorry for posting such a long first message. I do hope somebody will find the time to help out.
 
 Thanks a lot,
 --Bogdan, WRX wanna-be-owner

Being 25 or over helps a lot. Being married would also help, but rates shouldn't be too bad. Call you agent to get a quote, they can usually tell you in advance.
 
Now is a good time. Later might be slightly better, but even if prices do creep down a tad, selection will dwindle quickly. If you're picky about color, don't wait.
