#2538 of 2668 2013 RX 350 FWD-Did I get a good deal?? by susan2000

Hey Carman,
Just looking for some validation that we made the right move...We have 8 months less on our 2010 RX 350, with 42,500 miles, for which we have been paying $525/month. We will go over the allowed 52,000 miles by at least 2000 miles if we keep the car to the end. It also had some body work needed to due to side swipes on the back 1/4 panels (not dents, but swipes right down to the metal that can't be buffed out.
We turned it in and leased a 2013 RX FWD one with Premium package19" wheels, ventilated seats, backup camera, wood trim, no navi. Sticker was 46,065. Cap cost total was $42,991 (this includes agreed upon price of $41,461 plus $741 lease balance and $100 acquisition fee). They applied $1500 in loyalty rebates/first payment.
Lease is for 42 months
15K miles/year
Paid $800 out of pocket for first month, taxes, tags.
Total monthly payment, is $470.97 plus tax for a total of $499/mo.
Wh at do you think under the circumstances? Susan

Hi salineg. Lexus Financial Services' January buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 RX 350 AWD with 15,000 miles per year are .00100 and 57% for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Tier 1+" credit tier.
 
The residual value for a lease with 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher.

I NEVER FULLY UNDERSTOOD THE LEASE OPTION. SEEMS TO ME LIKE YOU ARE PAYING WAY TOO MUCH. THE FIRST RX I BOUGHT I PAID CASH AND THEN I FIGURE I CAN TRADE FOR 5K PER YEAR. I TRADE EVERY 3 YEARS FOR 15K. DOES THAT MAKE GOOD SENSE?

#2545 of 2668 New to leasing with Lexus by togadad

Car Man:
I'm inclined to lease an RX450h ÐÊI have a 2008 BMW 528xi and would like a bigger car but want to do the right thing for the environment. My question: is now (early Feb) a good time to go in and talk about leasing, or are there better opportunities in the near future (like President's Day) when I might get, as they say, "a more attractive lease option?"
 
Thanks for any advice you can give.

If you can trade for $5K, every three years, then that is likely cheaper than leasing...
 
I'd think over a few cycles, that is going to be hard to do.... Of course, if you own it, you can always stretch out to 4 years, which is usually not cost-effective on a lease...
