Sorry Car_man - here is what I know so far:
 
The total price is $23,517 (without startups). That includes the $1000 incentive currently offered.

Hi jdifot. You never mentioned the selling price of the car that you are interested in leasing. This is an important number for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing the price of the car that you want to lease you don't know how good a price you are getting it for. The second reason is that one needs the selling price of a vehicle that they want to lease is that it is necessary to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion on this deal if you let me know what this car's selling price is.

Don't worry about it, Tony, community members leave out this sort of information all the time. OK, if you were to lease a 2006 Dodge Charger SXT with an MSRP of $26,345 and a selling price of $23,517 through Chrysler Financial right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around $355.

#12 of 124 Current Residual and Money Factor by h0ldem

Mar 13, 2006 (8:44 am)

My wife and I test drove Chargers over the weekend. We had a great time. We're seriously considering an R/T. I was wondering if anyone had current residuals and money factors for the R/T, so that I can put some numbers together?
 
Thanks in advance.

I'm glad that you liked the Charger so much, h0ldem. I personally wasn't sure what to think about it when it first came out, but it has really grown on me. I like it now. This car's money factors and residual values vary depending upon how long you lease it for and how many miles per year you are allowed to drive it. For now, I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. If you were to lease a 2006 Dodge Charger R/T through Chrysler Financial on or before April 3rd for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00244 and 50%, respectively. When negotiating your lease on this car, keep in mind that DaimlerChrysler is providing a $1,000 bonus on leases of it and most dealers are getting $1,000 dealer cash back on vehicles sold right now.

sooo... would that be $2k that someone leasing should be able to get off the cap cost?

Well, you should have been able to get more than $2,000 off of the capitalized cost of a Charger last month, qbrozen. The $2,000 was only the cash incentives that were available on it. You should have been able to negotiate an additional discount on top of that.

Car_Man,
 
Your post was very informative, even for someone trying to buy. I am looking to buy a Charger SXT (package 27G, 18 in. wheels, Sirius & leather) with an MSRP of $27,052. Including the $1,000 rebate, I have been able to negotiate down to $25,852. I was not aware, however, of the $1000 cash back. I have the following questions that may help with my negotiations:
 
1. Assuming I have excellent credit, will the $1,000 rebate result in a high interest rate--9% or higher.
 
2. How much "play" should I get out of the dealer cash back?
 
Thanks.

I'm glad that you found it so helpful, elchurro. Chrysler is not currently providing any special finance rates on the Charger right now. As a result, if you finance through it to take advantage of the $1,000 Chrysler Financial Bonus you will have to use its standard finance rates. Most captive finance companies', especially GM's, Ford's and Chrysler's, standard finance rates are fairly high. I'm not sure what Chrysler Financial's current standard rate is, but it's probably around 8.x% to 9.x%. If you want to take advantage of the additional $1,000 bonus, but don't like the high rate, you can always pay your loan off early or refinance your car through an independent bank.

#18 of 124 June Residual and Money Factor for Charger R/T by andre1

Jun 01, 2006 (10:23 am)

Car_Man,
  For June, are the residual and money factor still 50% and .00244 for a Dodge Charger R/T (15,000/36 months)? Also, what is the same lease information for 12,000/36 months, 12,000/24 months and 15,000/24 months? Thanks!
