| The dealer I started working with insists that you have to do Driver Option, you can't just lease unless you are a business. So he gives me interest rates but no money factor. The VW website doesn't seem to say that at all. Does anyone know if there is any difference? | |

Does anyone have a good calculator online to use to compare Lease v Buy? Or just a brain that wraps around this stuff more readily than mine?  Choices: Lease a 2.0T with package 1 36 m/10,000 mi for $25370, money factor .00099, security + acquisition fee down $986.87, residual 54%. Dealer math says $392/m for 36 m Buy same car for $23370 ($2000 rebate), put same amount down to compare apples to apples $986.87. I would probably use market rate of 6.35% on 60 month finance in reality but for comparison purposes maybe should look at 5.99% on 36 month. Trying to guesstimate depreciation over the years, seems like take 20% off per year. |

(My apologies for cross-posting) I have received several email quotes on the 42- and 36 month lease for a 2006 Passat 2.0T VE (auto transmission). MSRP is $24,655 and Invoice Price $23,248. The best one I got so far is: 1) With $1000 down, a 42 month lease with 10,000 mi pr yr and $1000 Out of Pocket is $334.60 per month. 2) A 36 month lease with 10,000 mi pr yr and $1000 Out of Pocket is $342.56 per month. Other breakdown is as follows: $993.28 NJ Tax $334.50 1st month payment $129.00 Doc Fee $7.50 NJ Tire fee =========== $1698.38 The dealer claims that "these fees are normally what's required up front. You are only putting down $1000. The difference is applied to the lease." My question: How can I know for sure whether this is a great deal? I know that there is a special lease deal going on right now (42 month/ $1,500 down payment, 12k miles/year for $279 per month plus tax and tags) , but it is not clear whether the quote above is comparable to it. I have asked for the money factor and res. value figures, but haven't received them yet. Could the others who recently leased a Passat out there give me some advices? I would appreciate it. terri
