#5 of 196 Re: Low Lease [mr_anton89] by Car_man HOST Jan 09, 2006 (4:58 am)
Replying to: mr_anton89 (Jan 05, 2006 1:20 pm) Hi mr_anton89. You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the truck that you are interested in leasing. These are important numbers for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing this truck's selling price in relation to its MSRP you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on it. The second reason is that one needs the selling price and MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to work up a sample lease payment on the Commander that you are interested in for you if you let me know what these numbers are. I also need to know exactly which model you want, i.e Limited 4WD, non-Limited 2WD, etc... Let me know and I will try to give you a ballpark monthly payment.   Hi everyone. Please use the following discussion to post any questions that you have about leasing a Cadillac STS. Thanks.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
#6 of 196 Lease Homework by bobc5 Jan 29, 2006 (6:52 pm)
I am trying to do some homework being this will be my first lease.   There is a vehicle on the lot I would like to figure a sample lease for.   BASE 29,290 Options: Dark Khaki Paint 150 Trailer Tow Group IV 255 Quick Order Pkg 28s 1,340 Rear AC/Heater 610 Adj Roof Rack 75 Destination Charge 695 =========================== MSRP 32,415   Edmunds: Invoice 29,766 What Others Pay 31,193   I'm looking for the information on the 36 month lease 12k and 15k miles. Am I correct in assuming that I should be able to get a little closer to invoice than "what others pay" price? For the sake of argument use the 31,193 and 0 down.   Thanks in advance for your help.

Replying to: bobc5 (Jan 29, 2006 6:52 pm) Welcome bobc5. Since you are new to the world of leasing, you definitely should check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com prior to visiting any dealers: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.   I think that your assumption that you should be able to get a lower selling price than the "What Others Pay" price (Edmunds.com TMV) is very safe. I've found that Edmunds.com's TMV can usually be beaten fairly easily by smart shoppers who live in an area where there is a decent level of competition for their business. Also, when negotiating your lease on this truck, don't forget that DaimlerChrysler is providing $1,000 lease cash plus $1,000 bonus cash ($2,000 total) on it right now. These incentives will help you to negotiate an attractive capitalized cost.   If you were to lease a base 2006 Jeep Commander 4WD (not the Limited model) through DaimlerChrysler financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00196 and 53%, respectively. The money factor for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be the same, but the residual value would be 2% higher. You can plug these numbers and the selling price that you negotiate into the lease payment formula that is out lined in the aforementioned articles to estimate what your lease payment should be on this truck.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Replying to: kyfdx (Dec 09, 2005 4:20 am) I am looking at leasing a 2006 Commander with 40,000 miles on it. How can I determine if I am getting the best deal on a used lease? The MSRP is 32310.00 and the sales price is 27799.00. I'm just not sure that is a fair price for a used vehicle (also driven by a smoker, which I am not).

We went to a dealer (in NY State) and received a lease quote of $509/month with $2,500 down for a Limited 4x4 Commander with 5.7 Hemi. It included a rear entertainment center, sirius radio and upgraded color to Inferno red with saddle brown leather. Everything else was pretty much standard in the Limited vehicle. The term of the lease was 27 months, 12k miles/year. I think he used a price of $40,840 to calculate the payment. What do you think? He didn't tell us of any discounts available from manufacturer, but I guess he could have built them in. What is the free gas all about? I saw it on a posting by someone. Thank you.

#11 of 196 commander lease in ohio by rdt Feb 15, 2006 (4:11 pm)
car man thanks for helping all of us to understand leasing. here is the deal that has been offered for commander limited lease. msrp=39088, cap cost=32656, residual=23062(59%), money factor=.00186. no money out of pocket at signing. they state 511.54 plus tax for 27 months. also 12000 miles a year. my calculations ended up equaling 458 plus tax per month. am i wrong ? and does 59 percent residual seem low for 27 month lease? thanks for your help Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 15, 2006 5:05 pm) rdt (Feb 16, 2006 8:51 pm) Car_man (Mar 15, 2006 2:57 am)

Replying to: hockeymom1 (Jan 30, 2006 6:27 am) Hi hockeymom1. Let me begin by saying that leases on used vehicles are often not as good a deal as one would initially think. That is because manufacturers provide lease support on new vehicles to encourage consumers to purchase their product, this sort of support is usually not available on leases of used vehicles. Compare how much it would cost you to lease an equivalent brand new Jeep Commander to the cost of leasing the used one that you are interested in. You may be surprised and the new Commander will end up being the better deal, especially once you take the mileage and smoking factors into account.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Replying to: vogelgator (Feb 06, 2006 4:31 pm) Greetings vogelgator. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion on the lease that you were quoted. However, in order for me to do so I need some additional information form you first. Specifically, I need to know this truck's full MSRP (with the destination charge added in) and if the price that you mentioned is indeed its actual selling price. Once I have this info, I'll let you know what I think. DaimlerChrysler is no longer running the "Miles of Freedom" promotion that provided free gas. Instead, in February it is providing $2,000 lease cash on the '06 Commander. Make sure to take this cash into account when negotiating this truck's capitalized cost.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
