I am trying to reconcile this deal to the standard lease payment equation. As I understand it, these are the components of the monthly payment excluding taxes -
i) Depreciation Fee = (Cap Cost - Residual)/Term
ii) Finance Fee = (Cap Cost + Residual) * Money Factor
Monthly Payment (excl. taxes) = Depreciation Fee + Finance Fee
 
Car_man has published Subaru's Money Factor and Residual for the Legacy at 0.00230 and 72% for a 24 month term at 12K miles/yr. Noting that this deal was for 10K miles, I would imagine that the residual goes up another point or two at most. Using $24K as the Cap Cost, I get a monthly fee of nearly $360. So, this special program from Subaru must be discounting the Cap Cost enormously (more than 25-30% ??) to get to a $199 monthly payment.
 
Does this sound about right?

The capitalized cost was 22k and change. I am unsure of the money factor and residual since I went about this, really the wrong way to shop but thats another story.
 
I know the residual at the end of the lease is something insane like $19,xxx.
 
24 months/10k miles a year.
 
Sorry I know this doesn't help a whole lot - as far as the dealer, I can't give out dealer names on these boards I don't think.
 
Hope that helps a little bit.

You can give dealer names and locations, just not specific sales consultants.

Legacy Lease - SE vs. Limited by cdnj1

Hi all,
 
I've quotes for both for 36/36 leases (in Northern New Jersey)...
 
SE:
Residual - 61%
MF - .00210
adjusted cap - 21609
At signing: 1277
Monthly: 285
 
Limited:
Residual - 57%
MF - .00155
adjusted cap: 24415
At signing - 1320
Monthly - 329
 
Thoughts on either of these deals? Are 24/24 leases a better deal on Legacy?
 
Thanks in advance...

note on #253 above..."adjusted cap" is initial cap + tax.
 
can anyone tell me how tax is calculated on a lease in nj? i cannot figure it out for the life of me...
 
SE:
initial cap - 20889
tax - 720.21
 
Limited:
initial cap - 23592.24
tax - 823.13
 
thanks.

I'm pretty sure that NJ taxes the total amount of payments + any cap cost reduction, and collects the money upfront (which is why they are adding it to the cap cost).

Here you go, Peter. Subaru's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 Legacy 2.5 GT Limited with Navigation ans 15,000 miles per year are .00180 and 52%, respectively. The residual value for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 1% higher. When negotiating your deal, make sure to take advantage of the $500 cash incentive that Subaru is currently providing on this model.

Congratulations on getting your new Impreza, 28firefighter. I tell ya, the Legacy is a heck of a car for less than two hundred bucks per month. Thanks for taking the time to share the details of your lease with everyone. If you'd like, you can also hop on over to the Dealer Ratings & Reviews section of Edmunds.com to share your thoughts on your recent dealer experience there as well. Enjoy your new ride !
