IS 250 AWD w/Nav by asr515

Looking for some assistance here. I just received a quote on an '08 IS 250 AWD w/Nav. I'm looking at a 36 mo. w/15k year. 1st dealer indicated my residual is going to be 55% because of the 15k miles. Can anyone confirm this is correct? I can't seem to find the Lexus buy rates for February. Here are the numbers:
 
39k MSRP
36,200 Cap Cost
.00175
55%
$548/mo w/taxes
 
Fees (out of pocket):
$548 1st mo
$105 docs
$300 registration
$600 bank fee
Total: $1030
 
I don't think the Cap cost is a bad deal (about $3100 disc) but, the 55% is bothering me. I'm in the NY/NJ area.
 
Thanks.
Amy

Dealer #2 just indicated that they are having a Presidents Day lease sale on the IS 250. She said a 2yr/15k lease would have a residual of 61% and a money factor of .00050 (1.2%).
 
IS250 AWD w/NAV
39,335
35,830
61%
.0002 (1.2%)
 
$512/mo - includes tax
 
$1030 in fees and $1k down ($2030 out the door)
 
Thoughts?

So far I've spoken to Lexus of Edison, Warnock (Livingston) and Lexus of Lawrence. Edison has given me the best numbers so far (Dealer #2 on my email above). Lawrence wouldn't give me exact number over the phone but, it sounded like I could get a good deal from them too (just really don't want to haggle at the dealership).

Did the dealer say this was a Lexus wide deal for that money factor, or just specific to that one dealer?

It is Lexus wide. Every dealer I've spoken to so far has told me about it.

Yeah- I got that too. The MF is actually .0002 which translates to 0.48%. But only on the 2 year lease. I really prefer a 3 year lease. Wish they would extend it!

Please take a look at this deal by johnnj1

Just got back from Prestige Lexus in Ramsey, NJ.
 
My fiance just inked a deal on a IS250AWD - no nav or options. Sticker was 35,096.
 
Its a 36month 10K/yr lease at $450/mo with $3500 down. The tricky part here is that her current lease on her Maxima isnt up for 7 months. So Lexus agreed to pay the $392/mo for the next 7 months. So essentially my down payment at Lexus is the difference, or around $700.
 
I am not that great with the lease calculations and considering that we are ending the other lease early -- is this a decent deal??
 
The invoice says the cap cost reduction was 2034. I believe the residual was 58%. I dont know what the MF was but I know she was Tier 1 as her credit came back over 730.
 
Can anyone PLEASE help me out a little, I can still back out of this thing if it doesnt make sense.

johnnj1 - What is the reason for terminating the Maxima lease? If you must have the IS250, I would recommend keeping the Maxima because you are essentially making the payments (negative equity is being applied to monthly payment and costs due at signing) and receiving no benefit. Please correct me if I am wrong. Also, Prestige Lexus is a very good dealer with an incredible showroom.
