#47 of 249 Re: Leasing a 2007 Subaru Outback 2.5i Wagon [tommypc71] by Car_man HOST Jan 25, 2007 (2:57 am)
Replying to: tommypc71 (Dec 19, 2006 11:53 am) Hello Tommy. Let's work up a payment on this vehicle for you and see what we come up with. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2007 Subaru Outback 2.5i Wagon with an MSRP of $25,403 and a capitalized cost of $23,843 through Subaru's captive finance company right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $353. The numbers for an otherwise identical 48 month lease are $333.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

Replying to: ajfitzer (Jan 23, 2007 11:37 am) Hey ajfitzer. The money factor and residual value that you were quoted for the Outback that you are interested in are right in line with its published lease program. This is always a good sign. It is difficult for me to give you my opinion on this selling price without knowing what this vehicle's full MSRP is. Let me know and I'll tell you what I think.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

We are looking at the 2007 Outback Wagon 2.5 XT Ltd with Nav and 2007 Outback Wagon 3.0 R LL Bean with Nav. Are current money factors and residual values available, Car_man? Thank you! Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 17, 2007 10:17 am)
#50 of 249 Newbie Subaru Lease Question by denver5357 Jan 29, 2007 (8:18 am)
I've never leased a car, and when we buy a car we usually keep it for 8-10 years. But we may have a situation where a lease makes sense. Thing is, I don't understand how a lease with option-to-own program works out, numbers-wise. My question is ... is there a significant overall price difference between buying, say, a Subaru Outback i outright vs. leasing one and then in 42 months (or whatever) choosing at that time to purchase the vehicle if we like it? We usually only drive about 7K miles a year. Any comments? Thank you! Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 17, 2007 10:34 am)
#51 of 249 2.5i basic lease by 232499 Feb 13, 2007 (10:07 pm)
Car Man - I would like to get your opinion on a lease for a 2007 2.5i basic - I am in MO MSPR was $23,950 (might as well say 24k) and i would like to know the lease amounts for a 36 and 42 month, 12k miles per year with 0 down. I am not sure i understand what the Redidual & MFactor amounts are that you keep mentioning in previous posts.   thanks for any help you can provide, 232499 Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 17, 2007 11:00 am)

Replying to: comfortzones (Jan 29, 2007 7:05 am) Hi comfortzones. These vehicles' lease programs vary by term and mileage allowance. For now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if these terms are correct. Subaru Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Outback Wagon 2.5 XT with navigation and 15,000 miles per year are .00220 and 53%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2007 Subaru Outback Wagon 3.0 R LL Bean are .00240 and 57%. When negotiating your lease on either of these vehicles, make sure to take advantage of the $750 lease cash that is currently available on them. This incentive will help you to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

Replying to: denver5357 (Jan 29, 2007 8:18 am) Hi denver5357. All leases provide lessees with the option to purchase their vehicles for a predetermined price at lease-end. Vehicles' end of term purchase option prices are stated right on their lease contracts. There's nothing wrong with leasing an Outback and then purchasing it at the end of your lease if you decide that you like it. Doing so won't cost you a lot more than just financing the Outback that you want. Subaru's 42 month lease money factors for the 2007 Outback are between .00200 and .00250, which is equivalent to interest rates of around 4.8% to 6.0%. So it's lease program isn't amazing, but it isn't terrible either. There actually is an advantage to leasing. If you decide that you don't like your Outback, or if it has a ton of mechanical problems, or if it is involved in an accident that would diminish its future resale value you will be able to just walk away from it at the end of your lease. If it has been good to you and you decide that you like it then you can pay cash for or finance its purchase option price.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

Replying to: 232499 (Feb 13, 2007 10:07 pm) Hi 232499. It sounds like you are new to leasing. If so, you definitely should check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com prior to visiting any dealers: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.   I would be happy to estimate what this car's lease payment should be like right now for you, but in order for me to do so I need you to provide me with its selling price. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. You may be able to get an idea of how much you should pay for this vehicle right now by visiting the following discussion: "Subaru Outback: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". Let me know what selling price you come up with and I'll crunch some numbers for you.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

New Jersey   Option A We were going to strip out the tax and title and pay that outright (1782 for tax and 371 for title and registration) plus zero additional down.   Option B TTR + 1,000 down   Are these good deals? Am I missing something?   Thanks in advance Replies to this message: Car_man (Mar 21, 2007 3:07 am)
