Replying to: gerry10 (Jan 06, 2009 3:01 pm) TFS' residual values for this model vary by term and mileage allowance. You never mentioned what either of these variables are, so for now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. The 36 month, 15k residual value for any '09 Prius is 61%. The problem with this number is that TFS places restrictions upon what options can be residualized. This makes it very difficult for consumers to calculate the actual dollar residual values for specific units. It is so tricky that TFS provides dealers with lists of the actual dollar residual values for the units that they have in stock rather than relying on them to calculate them on their own. As a result, it is difficult for consumers to calculate sample lease payments for Toyota models on their own. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

Replying to: Car_man (Jan 12, 2009 3:07 am) Toyota seems to enjoy making some things complicated with purchasing a car, and this residual issue is a prime example. Anyway, I think I can at least get a close idea for a payment with your numbers. I am thinking about a 36 month 12K or 15K lease. Any idea about the residual for the 12K lease? Thank you again for the help! |

Hello All, I am in heated negotiations with a local NC dealer on a Prius Touring Model Package 6. He has agreed to price at invoice. He claims a money factor of .00274, which is better than I had hoped, but he claims a residual of only 59% for a 36 month, 12,000 mi/year lease. That seems low. I am hoping for a residual of 62 or 63%. What is the official Totota Finance number for a Touring Model package 6 with 36 months, 12,000 mi/year? Thanks Mike

Replying to: gerry10 (Jan 15, 2009 12:10 pm) In looking at the incentives page on edmunds.com, that is also true in NC. So a dealer selling at invoice is still making the $750. Plus holdback. Plus his dealer prep profits. |

Replying to: gerry10 (Jan 12, 2009 3:08 pm) TFS' 36 month, 15,000 mile per year residual value for the '09 Prius is 61%. The resid for a lease with only 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher. Keep in mind though that these percentages are for base models with no options. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum |

Replying to: Car_man (Jan 26, 2009 2:44 am) We must go by SOUTHEAST TOYOTA and not Toyota Financial Services. It must not be in this region. We have called TOYOTA JUST TO MAKE SURE ON MY END. SORRY Anyone else in the southeast seeing this same thing?
