#1256 of 1361 Changed my mind, went with an Infiniti by ajm7

Feb 04, 2012 (4:42 pm)

Originally I was looking to lease a 2012 Maxima, just visited an infiniti dealer and changed my mind. I just signed a 39 month, 10k miles per year lease on 2012 g37x sedan with premium pkg, interior accent pkg, performance wheel and tire pkg, splashguards, illuminated kick plates, carpeted trunk mat, net and first aid kit...msrp $43,185. $376.32 per month plus Massachusetts taxes that brings total to 399.84. Cost paid at signing was 700 Acq fee, 1st month of 399.84 and $541 cap cost reduction. Dealership is paying RMV fees and there were zero dealship paperwork fees. Don't know if this will help anyone.

ajm7 sound like you got a pretty good deal! Your total monthly cost of $442 is comparable to my $453 because I getting 15K miles. I was playing $525 for my last 09 maxima so saving $72 a month make me happy for the same car. I really did liked the infinity but a little to small for me. I'm a big guy. Good luck with your car!!

Here you go Jon. Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp.'s February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39-month lease of a 2012 Maxima SV Premium with 15,000 miles per year are .00059 and 54%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
 
Nissan is currently only offering a $1,000 cash incentive on leases of the Maxima in your area. That means that the dealer is offering you a $1,500 dealer discount. If that is indeed the case, then you're probably still at over $2,000 over dealer invoice...which is not a great deal. If you are in an area that has a decent level of competition, you should be able to do $1,000 or probably $500 over invoice minus the cash incentives.
 
Also, if you're not in a hurry, it would be in your best interest to wait until close to President's Day weekend to get your new Maxima. Nissan often offers special, additional cash incentives on the Maxima then.

Car man here my thinking:
 
MSRP 41000
Residual value 54%
equals 22140
 
Actual cost 32000 plus pkg of 4600= 36600
minus rebate 1500
equals 35100
 
36600-22140=12960 divided by 39 =332.30
 
residual value 22140+ cost minus rebates 35100= 57240
divided by .00059= 33.79
 
332.30+33.79 =366.07
 
Plus NJ tax 7% =25.62 + 366.07=391.69. Is that how you would value this deal of 391.69 a month. Thanks for you help! Jon

According to my calc is 391.71, but yea close enough. You still have to pay inception fees at signing though.

#1262 of 1361 Maxima S Lease by mr_t0ad

Feb 13, 2012 (9:27 pm)

Hi Car Man,
I am new to this forum. I been reading the posts getting ready to lease a Nissan Maxima. I got a quote today for a basic 2012 Maxima S. The MSRP is $33,835.00. 39 Month lease, 12k miles. It is $1,850 up front which includes MVC fees, Bank and Doc Fee, First month payment. The payment is $299 a month including the 7% NJ sales tax. Does this look like a decent deal. I need to go back to see how much of the $1,850 goes to CAP reduction.
 
I just saw the post for Legend Leasing. Looks like my payment is good, but I could knock $500-$600 off the up front costs.
 
Thanks for you help

Welcome mr_t0ad. It always pays to find out what selling price you are being charged for the vehicle that you are interested in. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash or financing. Without the selling price, it is much more difficult to tell how large a dealer discount you are being given and in turn if there is any room left to negotiate. Let us know what the selling price is and we'll tell you what we think.
 
When negotiating your deal on this car, make sure to take the $1,000 cash incentive that is currently available on leases of it in your area into account.
