Car_man,
 
Do they have a 24 month lease on this car? The few dealers I talked too only gave me 27 month #'s. I was looking into the AWD model and also the SXT. Thanks.

Yes, the numbers that I mentioned in my previous post are for a 24 month lease. I haven't seen the 27 month numbers, but the money factor for 27 months might be the same. The 24 month, 15,000 mile per year money factor and residual value for the Dodge Caliber AWD are .00125 and 66%. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a Caliber SXT are .00140 and 66%.

Hey all I just did the dodge.com website lease 999 down and 239 for 27 months. It seemed like a good deal? Your imputs or did I just get juiced?
 
Thanks,
Andy
P.S. The dealer even gave me the SXT 24E package (SXT Sport) with Sirius, 6 Disc CD, 17 inch wheels, Sunburst Orange paint and interior accents, Fog lights, and SXT sport trim.

Hi Andy. It is difficult for anyone to give a detailed analysis of your deal without knowing this car's MSRP and selling price. These numbers will show how much of a discount you were given and will enable anyone who reads your post to estimate what your lease payment should have been if they have Chrysler Financial's lease program.

Hey Car Man. My MSRP was $18,538.94 + ($575.00) Tax, title and Registration.
 
Capt Cost Reduction was $ 6349.50
Purchase price at the end of lease is $12.351.45
 
Lease terms are(were) $999 down 239+tax (Like 14 dollars) Per month for 27 Months.
I get 12000 Miles per year (I drive around 11,500 a year) .20 per mile over.
 
Thats it.
Any advice on if this is good? I've noticed They (Chrysler Financial/Dodge) stopped advertising this lease deal on their website. Hmm....
Thanks,
Andy

Hey Andy. $6,349.50 is a huge capitalized cost reduction. Are you paying this out of your own pocket or is any of it a dealer discount? Given this car's small margins I suspect that you are paying a lot of this as a down payment. It is in your best interest as a consumer not to make any sort of down payment when leasing. I say this because if your leased vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered during your lease, your down payment essentially disappears.

Car_Man. I did a one time lease payment. I did not want a monthly lease payment. I got lease coverage from my military insurance that covers my down payment. I did pay for this all out of my pocket.

Look at 48 mos leases on Dodge's website!!! by billwfriend

I priced out a loaded SE, getting the net price up near 17k. A 39mos lease with 0 down and 15k miles a year = 298/mos totalling $11,662.
 
Take that lease to 48mos, and it's only $211 per mos totalling $10,182.
 
Gee, do I want to pay $11,662 for use of the same vehicle over 39mos, or pay $10,182 for use over 48 mos!
 
I've got a dealer looking into this apparent issue with Dodge.com 'build and price' lease pricing. If this is for real, and Dodge wants to lose money by having people lease for 4 years instead of 3, I'm all for it!!!
