hi, i have decided to possibly lease the is350, can anyone help? The MSRP according to longo is $42725. I need help figuring what the best deal might be on a 3 year lease and 12K mile/year. Please help. I get a little confuse with the money factor, cap rate, and residual. Can anyone help?

I am not sure what the actual numbers are at this time. I however can tell you that traditionally the 350 is a horrible car to lease. Lexus usually offers little to no lease support on the 350.

Pretty much any advertised lease deal you see is a loser since they are teasing you with a low lease rate by making you put a huge amount of cash down. BTW I am sure that is the same offer that every Lexus dealer is offering.
 
$3539 down, plus registration and doc fees is outrageous. In this deal you are doing a $3200 cap cost reduction. Any leasing expert will tell you do not do a cap cost reduction. The disadvantage of a cap cost reduction is that, should your vehicle get stolen or totaled in an accident, you probably won't get any of the down payment returned to you.
  
If you are worried about higher payments take the money that you would have put down to cut the payment in a higher interest savings account. If and when you need to make a lower car payment take some of the money out of savings to help with the payment.
 
On a lease, just like buying really the only thing you can negotiate is the selling price (Not the MSRP). There are other small things, but in the grand scheme of things the selling price is what matters.

Thanks! Yeah I put the $0 down payment. However the Acq fee is pretty high: $700 he said it's fixed. I'm trying to get the selling price lower. Any tips on that?

Does anyone have any additional information about this $379 lease deal on the '09 IS 250? I'd be interested to learn the exact configuration (options) being offered at this price. I also wonder what the annual mileage limit is on this deal?
