#158 of 192 Re: Best SUV Lease Deals! [cccompson] by aepheme Jul 15, 2007 (3:40 pm)
Replying to: cccompson (Jul 15, 2007 6:43 am) For those who are interested: I was curious how much over invoice cars are going (in terms of TMV) for in the JD Powers "Premium CUV" Category. There are 14 cars in that category (and 2 in the "compact premium" category). All listed below are 2007 AWD 6 cyl versions:   1. Lexus GX470 - 7.7% 2. BMW X5 - 7.2% 3. BMW X3 - 6.6% 4. Acura MDX - 5.7% 5. Audi Q7 - 3.3% 6. Acura RDX - 3.0% 7. Lexus RX350 - 2.3% 8. Lincoln MKX - 1.4% 9. Volvo XC90 - 1.3% 10. Volkswagen Touareg - 1.2% 11. Volvo XC70 - 1.1% 12. Infiniti FX35 - 0.3% 13. Mercedes ML350 - NEG 0.5% 14. Mercedes R350 - NEG 1.2% 15. Cadillac SRX - NEG 3.4% 16. Saab 9-7X - NEG 12.1%   There are a number of reasons why a car's market value may vary from the invoice. The manufacturer could have a systematic pattern of marking their cars too high. The market conditions could be such that specific models aren't selling as well as expected. Or the car could be ill received by the customer base and difficult to sell... Or maybe there's just a temporary discount to encourage early sales.   Anyway, it's interesting to see. More data!

Replying to: dtownfb (Jul 14, 2007 7:03 pm) Great advice. my insurance company charges $39.00 a year for GAp. Slimy checked with his "District Manager" and stated we do not need to take the Gap and they will apply the rebate anyway. Very nice. The finance rate is .7 percent for 36 months. The price I got was for the sentra SL with mats 18,200 minus $1000.00 in rebates. After tax ($300), and Doc fees (bogus) of $394.50, registration and tag fees $49.00 and $39.00. Out the door for $17989.50   PS car arrived but my wife found a paint defect on the right rear pillar. Sales Manager says that he would not let us by the car with that problem. He is now looking for a new one for us. Should be in in three days. Do you thik I should haggle the Doc fee or am I getting overly greedy?

Replying to: janda1 (Jul 19, 2007 10:32 am) Assuming the price of the car includes the destination charge, you did pretty well. Not sure how much leverage you have since the ony thing you are waiting for is the actual delivery of the car. YOu can always ask. But it seems like you are happy with your current deal.

Replying to: janda1 (Jul 19, 2007 10:32 am) It would be just as easy for them to switch out the rear spoiler if the can't get another car. Replies to this message: janda1 (Jul 23, 2007 5:07 pm)

Replying to: dtownfb (Jul 20, 2007 7:24 pm) Heard today they found a car 300 miles away and will be ready at noon tomorrow. Comes with a couple of extras,mouldings and wheel guards. Manager says no charge. We shall see tomorrow how things turn out.   Also that deal did include delivery.

Replying to: greanpea68 (Jul 21, 2007 1:14 pm) Good point Greenpea. Latest is they found a car 300 miles away with side mouldings which the sales manager says will be no charge. Supposed to be ready tomorrow. SO far so good. Thanks for the advice.

Replying to: kyfdx (Oct 19, 2007 12:46 pm) Dodge has $6000 back on its Ram 1500s, which is also a silly amount off. And, of course, there's the aging Grand Marquis., which is also $6000 off on the 2007s.
