Here you go, Mike. If you were to lease a 2006 Subaru Outback Limited Wagon through its captive finance company right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00200 and 52%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of an '06 Outback LL Bean Wagon should be .00200 and 52% as well. When negotiating your lease on these cars, keep in mind that Subaru is providing its dealers with up to $1,000 dealer cash on '06 Outback models this month. The exact amount that dealers receive depends upon how many units they sell.

I'm planning on leasing an automatic 2.5i (probably 48 mos/15K miles). I'm looking at one with a $26K sticker price. What's a reasonable target number to negotiate down to? (no trade in)

Hi melissag. You may be able to get an idea of how much you will have to pay for the Outback that you are interested in by visiting the following discussion: "Subaru Outback: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". Once you have an idea of the selling price of the Outback that you want (and its full MSRP) let me know and I would be happy to estimate what its lease payment should be for you.

I'm considering leasing a Subaru 2.5i Wagon (MSRP was approx. $27,000). Salesman in Riverhead, Long Island quoted me $376 per month, 48 months, $0 down. Could you please let me know if this is a good price, and if not, what should I be trying to negotiate down to?
 
Thanks.

Rich--I ended up leasing through Manchester Subaru (New Hampshire) for $299 per month; 48 months; 15K per year; no trade in or $$ down, and the cash to close was one payment plus a relatively nominal (less than 200) charge. Good luck.

Hi richw4. You never mentioned the selling price of the car that you are interested in leasing. This is an important number for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing the price of the car that you want to lease you don't know how good a price you are getting it for. The second reason is that one needs the selling price of a vehicle that they want to lease is that it is necessary to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion of this deal if you let me know what this vehicle's selling price is.

I just completed a deal on a demo Outback 3.0R. Love the car; hated the experience. Interested in knowing how I did. This is in Canadian dollars.
 
Demo had 12500kms. (MSRP in Canada for the car is $38995)My deal had a final cost of $36 000 (no other fees). 2.8% financing (non-negotiable) over 4 years with a $14 530 residual ($1007 off normal residual due to kms on car). Total tax rate here is 14%. My monthly payments are $577 all-in. Also got them to install an automatic car starter at no charge. Thanks.

2.5i Outback Limited Wagon Lease by drewcar

Hello, Mr. Car Man. Thank you for being you.
 
A few important questions I was hoping you might be able to help me with when you have a moment:
 
1. Can you tell me the lease money factor and residual value percentage for a 2007 Subaru 2.5i Outback Limited Wagon?
 
2. I am using lease calculators to learn about this whole craziness....and I am a bit confused by the residual value computation. Is the residual value based on the Cap Cost or the Adjusted Cap Cost? It seems to me that, regardless of what one pays for a car, it is worth the same at the end of, say, 4 years and with 40,000 miles on it, no? Therefore, it would seem that the residual value is based on the Cap Cost NOT the adjusted cap. Please confirm or clarify if you would.
 
3. Finally, it seems that depreciation values set by leasing companies are rather high. If I return a leased car after four years with 40K miles, how am I to believe that the car is, say, 48% depreciated (52% residual value) when the private sale value after four years is more like a 65% residual value? Is this a profit angle or a cover-our-butts strategy to protect the leasing companies from value gaps?
 
Thanks for the help.
 
And again, thanks for being there.

Hi Carman:
 
Do you have info on current mfr. (by Chase) lease MF and residuals on '07 Legacy GT Ltd/Outback XT Ltd wagons for 24/36 months and 15000 miles/yr? Is Spec B sedan any different? The region is Southeast (FL), if it matters. Feel free to volunteer any special/sunsidized rate they might have with other term lengths. I appreciate your help in advance.
