Just started looking into the SC. What are people seeing on lease rates for 15k miles, no money down, and no more than a 36 month lease?
 
What is typical for:
 
1. MF
2. residual percentage
3. percentage off of MSRP

Here's the info that you are looking for, bsedrish. If you were to lease a 2006 Lexus SC 430 through Lexus Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00255 and 52%, respectively. This is LFS' standard lease money factor for consumers who qualify for its Tier 1+ credit tier. I believe that it varies slightly depending upon what part of the country one is in. I'm not personally all that familiar with how much this car is selling for right now.

2003 SC430 Lease Question by addi

Car_man, Howdy,
 
Most of the 2003 SC430's sell for $35.0m to $41.0m.
I am considering a lease which would be for 36 months with
12.0m miles per year.
 
Could you give me the Tier 1+ Buy Rate and Residual for this
car from LFS?
 
When you get the opportunity, I would as always appreciate
your info. Take care. Addi.

Howdy addi. Unfortunately, I do not personally keep tabs on the lease programs for used vehicles. The main reasons why I don't is that leases of used vehicles are much less popular than they are on new vehicles and the lease programs for used vehicles have even more variables than new vehicle lease programs so there is more data to keep an eye on. Sorry that I could not be of more help.

Thanks for getting back to me concerning the above. If I decide not to go with a used SC430, I will come back to you for further lease information.
 
As always, I appreciate your efforts and information.

I am considering leasing. I have looked at a Lexus 1pay lease. Can you advise me on the pros/cons of this and approx what the 1pay should be on 36 months?

Hi dallexus. Even though they are getting all of the money for your lease in advance, banks that offer One Pay leases, aka Advance Pay leases, still charge interest. They do usually provide a reduction in the interest rate that is used to calculate the cost of the lease though. Specifically, Lexus Financial Services reduces vehicles' money factors by .00100 for consumers who pay for their entire lease in advance. Unfortunately, Lexus is not currently providing any sort of lease support on the 2007 SC 430 right now. If you were to lease one through Lexus Financial Services, you would have to use its standard lease program. Its buy rate standard lease money factor varies slightly by region, but it should currently be around .00275 for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier. If you pay for your entire lease in advance, this factor would drop to .00175. I would be happy to estimate what the cost of a One Pay lease on this car would cost right now, but in order for me to do so I need some additional information from you first. This information includes this car's full MSRP, its approximate selling price, and how many miles per year you need to be able to drive it. Let me know and I'll crunch some numbers for you.

I am looking into buying/leasing a 2007 SC430. The MSRP would be $67,735. I would do a 36 month, 12k miles lease. In order to get the car I want they will probably have to order it. Will that impact the pricing?
 
How can I calculate the advantage of leasing over buying?
Thanks!!
