Sigh... the 10k/39m lease I got on 12/30/08.... 0.00273 61% vs. 0.00119 59% now. Could have saved $30-35/month. Missed the deal by a week or so...

Car_man--
 
Would the money factor and residual value be the same for a Jetta S as well, on a 36 month / 12K miles/year lease?
 
These are much better numbers than last month's, for sure.

Hello Car_Man,
 
Just a quick question: are the MF and residual values the same for S and SE models? Can you provide them for a 24/36 month 15k per year lease?
 
Thanks in advance.

Well, VW's advertised deal right now is $199/month on a Jetta S with manual transmission, no money down. So $231 would have been a good deal last month, I'm not sure it's so great now.
 
Right now, on the right side of this page, I see a VW ad that reads "Honk if getting into a Jetta for $199/month sounds good."
 
(Check VW.com "Special Offers" if you don't see the ad.)
 
So if you haven't finalized your lease yet, I'd ask your salesman about the $199 deal. I assume you are looking at the base Jetta S, no options?

'06 Jetta 2.5 End of Lease Buy Out by kris113

Hi...
 
My lease is up in a few weeks on my '06 Jetta and although I don't want to purchase it (I will be leasing a new car), my parents would like to buy it from me.
 
The Residual Amount left on the car is $12,748 and although the car has never given me any problems, I am a little nervous about them buying it in case something goes wrong. I am also not sure if $12,748 is a good price for the car. Does anyone know if you are able to negotiate the selling price with the dealership at the end of a lease, and if so what do you think a good stating point would be for this car?
 
Thanks

The residual amount due at the end of a lease is not negotiable, as far as I know. When you signed the lease paperwork at the beginning of the lease 3 years ago, that residual price was stated and you agreed to pay that at the end of the lease to purchase the car.
 
There's no space to bargain, here; because if you don't purchase the car, VW simply takes it back and sells it to someone else.
 
Someone here can correct me if I'm wrong; but I'd be very, very surprised if the residual amount at the end of a lease is negotiable in any way, shape, or form. That amount is set in stone.

I am fairly certain that you cannot negotiate your buy out. Your car should be worth more, and should technically be valued a higher sale price. The buy out, would leave you with a payment around $250, that isn't bad.
 
Some go ahead and buy the car for the buy out price, then sell it for a higher price. It is worth more on the open market. So the buy out would seem quite attractive to your parents, the dealer would put it priced much higher.
