#2 of 56 Question about leasing an FJ by Car_man HOST May 02, 2006 (1:50 am)
Hey davewest01. As one would suspect on such a new model. Toyota has not been providing any sort of lease support on the FJ Cruiser. As a result, if you were to lease one through Toyota Financial Services right now would will probably have to use its standard lease money factor. I say probably because Toyota's April lease program just expired and it is scheduled to publish its new May program today. I have not had an opportunity to take a look at it yet, but would be more than happy to answer any questions that you have about leasing an FJ Cruiser as soon as I do. Please post a quick reminder for me in this discussion in a day or two and I'll be happy to fill you in on the details of the new May program. Talk to you soon.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums

Car man - Have you had a chance to look up the current residual value and money factor for a 36-month/12K mile FJ lease? Replies to this message: Car_man (Jun 25, 2006 8:26 am) qbrozen (Jun 26, 2006 7:18 am) Car_man (Jul 19, 2006 2:46 am) jlh6 (Jun 28, 2006 7:14 pm)

Replying to: davewest01 (May 09, 2006 5:53 am) I've finally seen Toyota's lease program for the FJ Cruiser, davewest01. If you were to lease a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser AWD through Toyota Financial Services right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00265 and 71%, respectively assuming that you qualify for TFS' Tier 1+ credit tier.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forums Replies to this message: qbrozen (Jun 26, 2006 7:18 am) Car_man (Jul 19, 2006 2:46 am) jlh6 (Jun 28, 2006 7:14 pm)

Replying to: Car_man (Jun 25, 2006 8:26 am) Wow!! That's an incredible residual value! Especially for a vehicle with no historical data to go by! Replies to this message: Car_man (Jul 19, 2006 2:46 am)

Replying to: Car_man (Jun 25, 2006 8:26 am) How can I get a lease for those rates?! Today I was offered a .0279% money factor with 42% residual value!! The rest of the terms (tier 1)were the same.

Replying to: qbrozen (Jun 26, 2006 7:18 am) It is an amazingly high residual, qbrozen. The problem is that it is the residual value for a base vehicle. Toyota Financial Services places limits upon which options can be residualized and caps on the ones that it allows. So this truck's real world residual isn't quite as good as it initially appears. It is still very solid though, especially for a vehicle with such a love it or hate it styling like the FJ Cruiser that has no history to determine how well the public will receive it.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum
#9 of 56 leasing a new fj cruiser by warhub Sep 10, 2006 (5:24 pm)
(Yes I'm the same guy who is also considering an 06 jetta gli...sounds crazy huh!?)   I recently went to a local toyota dealer in the NYC suburbs interested in leasing a new 07' Toyota FJ cruiser. The FJ in question was pretty well-loaded and had an MSRP of $30008. He gave me the following numbers for a 36-month lease with 15k miles per year. He also suggested that buying it might be a better way to go. Figure 8% NY State income tax. Let me know if this makes sense to you:   Lease: .0028 money factor, $18191 end of lease purchase option (which he said equates to a 61% residual), $0 down other than inception fees, $530 per month   Buy: $1500 down payment 7.9% interest $621 per month x 60 months   Sound about right or too high? Does either option seem like the better deal? Thanks for your help.
