Hi Tony. While I certainly cannot guarantee that this will be the case I suspect that you would be able to lease a Focus through Ford Credit if you decide that you want to.

Don't worry about it, jwilds. It happens all the time. OF, if you were to lease a 2006 Ford Focus Sedan ST through Ford Credit in Michigan right now for 2 years with 12,000 miles per, its base lease rate and residual value should be 2.5% and 58%, respectively. When negotiating this car's capitalized cost, make sure to keep in mind that Ford is currently providing $500 lease cash on it in your area.

#9 of 90 help with lease on a 2007 Focus wagon by fordwagon67

Oct 03, 2006 (12:03 pm)

Hi,
 
I'm hoping someone can help, I put a deposit on a 2007 Focus Wagon and the incentive (RCL) cash just went up from $500 to $1,000 so I thought, great, my payment will be lower than originally quoted. But my salesman says the interest rate (money factor?) has gone up by 1.5% so the payment is actually $3/month higher.
 
How do I know this is true?
 
Thanks

Hi fordwagon67. It's possible that this vehicle's lease program changed as well. Its program varies depending upon how long you lease if for. For now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease. Let me know if you want a different term. Ford Credit's current base lease rate for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Focus Wagon is 3.5%. Is this in line with what you were quoted?

Car_man,
 
Thanks, yes it was 3.5% for a 36mo/12k lease.

#12 of 90 How good is my deal? by imacyco

I was just quoted for a 24 Month lease, $0 Down, ZX5 SES with Automatic Transmission + Safety package, 10,500 mpy for $238/ month OTD.
 
I have the X-plan and I am a recent college grad but I don't know how much difference that made in the number game. What do you guys think?

Hi imacyco. The fact that you are able to purchase this vehicle through Ford's X-Plan means that you are getting a good price on it. This is a pretty nice car for $238 per month with nothing down for only 24 months. I would be more than happy to use Ford Credit's actual lease program double check the lease payment that you were quoted if you provide me with this car's full MSRP and selling price.
