#108 of 112 Options at end of SmartBuy by atom1 Mar 23, 2009 (6:15 pm)
The SmartBuy on my 2006 Trailblazer SS ends in June. The payoff is $22k, which is probably $2-3k over market value. I am well under the mileage limit, but it's possible they could make me pay to replace the tires. Tirerack has the OE tires for $105 each. Otherwise, I don't expect any penalties for turning it back in.   What is the best option? I would like to keep it if I could buy it for the current market price. Is there any chance they would lower the payoff to get me to keep it? Otherwise, I need to start looking for a new SUV. Replies to this message: Car_man (Mar 30, 2009 2:22 am)

Replying to: atom1 (Mar 23, 2009 6:15 pm) Hi atom1. It is difficult to say whether GMAC will be willing to lower your vehicle's purchase option price. The only way to find out for certain is to give them a call directly and see if they will work with you. More often than not banks won't, but I would not be surprised in the least if you were able to get them to offer your this truck at a reasonable price. If your initial contact at GMAC isn't willing to work with you, you may have better luck if you work your way up the ladder to a manager. Good luck.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
#110 of 112 Am I Paying 14.25% Interest? by procsp Sep 10, 2009 (10:12 pm)
Could someone please help me understand what portion of my lease is used to determine the interest rate? I simply subtracted the amount of rent--5880 from the Cap Cost--41253 and come up with 14.25%, ?   Cap Cost $41,253.25 (Invoice 35770, there was no trade payoff, but they lied and said there was and I signed because I believed them. That is why the Cap is higher than the invoice.) Cap Red. -$4,500 Residual -$9,412 Rent Chrg $5,880.60 = %?? state tax rate .7% 66 month lease   Please help.   1. Payment? 2. Interest Rate?

Replying to: procsp (Sep 10, 2009 10:12 pm) A 66-month lease?!   I didn't figure your payment, because I'm not sure if your net CAP cost is $41,500, or if that figure is before your CAP cost reduction.. (don't you know the payment?)   But, it's easier to come close to the interest rate.. A rough estimate is about 4.3% APR..

Replying to: procsp (Sep 10, 2009 10:12 pm) Hi procsp. General Motors is not currently providing lease support on the Trailblazer. Entering into an unsupported lease on a GM product does not make financial sense. You would be better off financing an '09 Trailblazer through GMAC at 2.9% for 5 years or financing it through an independent bank and taking advantage of the total cash allowance of $4,000 that is currently available on it.   Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
