Replying to: linusthelab (May 27, 2007 10:21 pm)  but, it is what he was asking and likely may be the easiest solution. He's already in another vehicle and has payments left on the other. Getting out of a lease costs $, 6 months or not. If the vehicle had more time left on the lease, he might be able to find someone to take over the lease. But, 6 months or less is probably a hard one to convince someone to take over. That's why I suggested finding someone to purchase and buyout the lease. -Brian

Ciao. This is my first time posting, and I know it's in the wrong forum. I just thought I'd get more traffic here. Thanks for understanding. I'm looking at a leftover '07 Legacy Limited wagon, Diamond Grey w/black leather interior. From the dealer: 52% residual .0023 money factor based on "$300 under invoice": $24,379. Lease calculator based on 6% sales tax and 39 months: $354, that's adding $1000 Subaru cash incentive. However, because the dealer quoted me under invoice already, should I forget about this $1000? It still seems a little high to me. Is this a good deal? J. |

The dealer came back with other numbers on the Limited. $0 down, 15,000 miles/year, 39 months: $369, T,T&L folded into monthly payment. T,T&L= about $1100. If I put that down, for the same lease on the same vehicle, he quoted me $339. This sounds like the right deal. Now...I found another dealer much closer to my home with a silver Special Edition. No 6-CD, no auto climate control, but they're quoting me a price to put the full leather interior in and do a lease: with $525 down: $358, month, 42 months. At that same dealer, on "a" Limited wagon, they're quoting: $385/month, 48 months, $0 down. This is with an "acquisition fee" folded into the monthly. Personally, I'd prefer the first vehicle; I'd have to go farther to get it, but I don't really want to get into this car for a year past its factory warranty. Is this a good deal? I'm shopping it against the Hyundai Santa Fe, Honda CR-V, or a deeply deeply discounted Nissan Murano. The Subaru beats them all on gas mileage, and has similar usable space in the back. The handling on the hunkered-down Legacy is good for a wagon, in my opinion. Thanks for your help, J.

Thanks for the advice, but the dealer didn't say anything about gap insurance. What would it be for this kind of lease (car's selling price = $24,379 so far, I want to get it down to in the $23s, but original MSRP was almost $27,000). However, rather than taking the selling price down any, my only other idea at the moment is either using my good credit score to get a better money factor (.00235 is what they were offering, more accurately)...or I was thinking of getting them to install Outback roof rails if I took the $339 deal. Still, though, it seems a bit much...I'm suspicious at a car dealer who is actually willing to be forward with me. There is something I've got to be missing. |

Replying to: bobbyjones (Jun 09, 2007 7:30 am) Yes, I ended up keeping the 05 Outback. I figured I might as well wear it out for the next 6 months instead of my purchased Baja. - Art

Replying to: linusthelab (Jun 23, 2007 7:20 am) I'm asking because I'm looking to buy. I'm days away from leasing / buying new but would love to try and get into something like yours if the residual was right! -B
