Replying to: worldly1 (Jul 10, 2007 9:33 am) Hi worldly1. The car that you described has a spread of around $1,900 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. Plus Subaru is providing a $1,000 cash incentive on leases of it. This gives you a total of $2,900 to play with. The $2,600 discount that you are being given looks very attractive to me. Just make sure that the dealer you are working with uses Subaru Finance's current buy rate lease money factor of .00260 to calculate your lease payment and you're in business.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: texmex (Jul 26, 2007 3:55 pm) Greetings texmex. The vehicle that you described probably has a spread of around $1,550 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. Plus Subaru is providing a $1,000 cash incentive on leases of it. That gives consumers who are in the market for it around $2,550 to play with. The $3,000 discount that you are being given looks outstanding to me. Furthermore, the money factor that was used to calculate your monthly payment is right in line with Subaru Finance's buy rate for this model. This looks like an outstanding deal to me. Congratulations. Make sure to stop by the new Edmunds.com Dealer Ratings & Reviews section to share your thoughts on this dealer with others. Enjoy your new ride .   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
#94 of 248 MI Lease - '08 Outback 2.5i Limited by royman Nov 19, 2007 (10:28 pm)
I'm considering leasing an '08 Outback 2.5i Limited and would like some opinions as to what a fair monthly payment would be with the following terms.     MSRP $28,616 36 months 12k / year $0 Down payment     Teir 1 credit Michigan dealership     Nothing has been negotiated as of yet. Only inital salesperson contact and test drive complete. Competition should be a factor; similar vehicles exist in inventory at 3 local dealers.     I've surmised from other postings that there is $1,000 incentive on the vehicle and quite a bit (approx. $1,900) of differential between Invoice and sticker. Money rates seem to hover around 0.0019 and residual of 58%. But I really don't know if any of this accurate, that's the reason for the post.     Thanks for your consideration.

Hi,   This has been expensive to lease the last few months but is the car my wife and I really want. Hoping you can post the December numbers (cash, residual, money factor) once they are in. Looking at 36 or 39 months (whichever is better) and 12k miles per year.   Thank you!
#96 of 248 2008 Outback 2.5XT Limited - 5MT by jpauto Dec 04, 2007 (9:20 pm)
please confirm the following:   residual for 12k miles per year is .53 at 36 months, .51 at 39, and .50 at 42 money factor for all is .00170   And wondering if the cash is $750 or $1500? I read edmunds info as 2 different $750 incetives that can both be used on a lease and thus totaling $1500? Wasn't clear.   Thanks, and please correct me if and where I am wrong...

Replying to: jpauto (Dec 04, 2007 9:20 pm) I got the exact quote from Valley Subaru in Longmont Co. $32000 purchase price, with all the data you list above, =$469/month.   I'm pretty sure the cash back is $750. You can see that on their website for their season event (I'm so tired of the "season/event" advertising, I could puke up a giant red bow on a Lexus). The XT is half that of the regular Outback with cash back.   I'm curious what your purchase price has been quoted? Anyone else finding better deals--$32K seems okay but not great. Pretty disappointed in the buydown on this car, say compared to a Volvo XC--you can get that for a substantially less per month lease.

Replying to: tenmiler (Dec 08, 2007 10:16 pm) It's because Volvo subsidizes its lease by significantly overinflating the residuals and Subaru does not (or to be more exact - Subaru overinflates them to much lesser degree). If you got Volvo and happen to drive much more than the mileage or have some unfortunate wear and tear, you'll have to either take a heavy penalty, overpay for its purchase by some absurd amount. In Subaru's case you might break even or overpay to much lesser degree. So it all depends on one's situation: low payment today, high price/penalties tomorrow, higher payment today, easy walkout tomorrow.

Replying to: dino001 (Dec 09, 2007 1:45 pm) Hi dino,   I guess I'm not understanding you very well: Both cars have penalties for overages on mileage, and I'm pretty sure they are the same (.20/mile). Are you saying Subaru doesn't penalize you for excessive wear and tear. I have to say I'm kind of doubting that Volvo is any "harsher" here.   For example: My current XC lease is up. I have taken it into Wells Fargo Auto Finance's auction house in Denver (who, btw, does Subaru leases), to have them "evaluate" it. I had one unfortunate bang into my bumper that cracked it, but it was a $150 charge (the bumper repair quote was $580 when I took it to the dealer last year). The other thing they checked was tire tread. I was okay on that, so no charge. Then they looked for dings and large scratches beneath paint. I had none, but the guy told me they were **$15** a piece. That was it. My car was under mileage so I didn't get dinged for that, but it was the same as Subaru. It wasn't even clean when I brought it in, had a perforation in the side door leather from a ski, the guy saw it and didn't charge me.   So, I personally think that Volvo is subsidizing the car, yes, but not hitting wear and tear any harder, unless Subaru has some kind of easy lease deal where you can beat the crap out of the car and not worry. I'd be surprised.   I just want to add here: If I wanted a new XC, I'd get one, but I don't like the poor gas mileage on the new one so I'm now considering an Outback--so this wasn't a 'Volvo is better than Subaru" post. I think the Outback's a great wagon!   Thanks! Replies to this message: dino001 (Dec 10, 2007 2:06 pm) tenmiler (Dec 10, 2007 2:17 pm) dino001 (Dec 10, 2007 2:25 pm)
