#604 of 668 Tax question in NY by dima1

Feb 24, 2012 (9:21 am)

I am in NYC, and always leased from NY dealers. If I lease the Highlander from NJ dealer, can the dealer build in NY taxes and register it in NY State? Please share your experiences.
Thank you.

I am from NY and always bought from NJ. They can register the car for you in NY but you will need to come and get the plates. I was never able to transfer my plates always got new plates. But this is due to the old car being leased/financed otherwise they might be able to transfer. The fees are a little higher for the registrations thru NJ dealer then NY dealer. The for sure will take NY taxes as it goes by where the car is registered

Hey suberman1. The money factor that you were quoted looks good. The selling price looks reasonable as well. If you like the Highlander, I personally don't see any reason not to pull the trigger on this deal.

Hey orangeman99. Toyota Financial Services' February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 Highlander SE V6 4WD with 12,000 miles per year in its New York region are .00065 and 62%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka Tier 1+ credit tier.
 
Keep in mind though that TFS places restrictions upon what options can be residualized, so its effective residual value for this truck will likely be lower than its percentages make it appear.

#609 of 668 Residual is LOW! by orangeman99

Mar 05, 2012 (9:39 pm)

Hi all,
I got a quote from a local dealer in NYC. I'm looking at an SE V6 4x4.
  
The base MSRP is 36,260 and the Residual is 21,979 (61%).
  
After adding some dealer installed options, the MSRP is $39,236, the residual is still 21,979 (56%).
  
Is this possible that the residual stays the same? So basically, I'm buying all these options but can only use them for 3 years. WTF?
  
Thanks for any insight.
 
BTW-The money factor (Tier 1+) for March for 36mo/12k went down to .00040

#610 of 668 Numbers don't add up... by orangeman99

Mar 07, 2012 (10:55 am)

Hi all,
Have any of you ever calculated your own lease price and matched the dealer's?
 
They must add some crazy fees to the selling price to get their numbers.
 
I spoke to a dealer today and got a lease payment quote. He gave me the selling price, residual, and MF he used. When I plugged it into the formula, I got $469/mo, but he got $518. He basically said it doesn't matter what the formula is, they go with the "Toyota computers". Their computers must be smoking some good stuff. But funny how each dealrship comes out with different numbers for the exact same car using the same exact "Toyota computers".
 
Can somebody check my numbers:
Sale price 36,644
Residual 21,979
Money factor 0.00040
NYC sales tax 8.875% (rolled into the lease)
 
THANKS IN ADVANCE
