Driving an early cx-7 --purchased 10/2006 --currently 57,000 miles purchased new. Issues so far: leaking oil pan gasket --(dealer replaced) battery died -(replaced) tires--(replaced)-- water pump/ timing chain/ vvt actuator (keeps timing chain tight)--dealer replaced under warranty. Is this an excessive maintenance list at 57,000 miles---? A very good question. Vehicle does use premium fuel--getting 19~21 mpg in city driving.

I'd be happy to help you out, bratram. Mazda's May lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 CX-7 Sport with 15,000 miles per year are .00170 and 49%, respectively.
 
I personally think that the Forester is a better value than the CX-7, but you're right the latter will likely be much faster. If I was interested in this list of vehicles, I definitely would go with the Subaru or Mazda over Mitsubishi.

Hey carman- Thank you for the numbers.
I agree that the Forester is a better car-but the mazda numbers are pretty good here in NJ. There is really not much of a negotiating room with a sube....and the mitsu was plesantly surprising.....but still looking...
suddenly over the weekend we thought we should just go with the bigger cx9-so i am crunching numbers for that car

#307 of 346 2010 CX-7 Sport 36 month lease 12K miles by monte72

Please help.
 
Without getting into specifics (I know my first mistake) does the above sound like a good lease with $2000 down $333 month? That includes tax and first month payment. Only additional expenses are DMV and 75 documentation fee.
 
Thank you very much.

#308 of 346 URGENT - Lease end purchase issue (need advice) by jramm

Jul 20, 2010 (9:37 pm)

I went to my originating dealer to purchase my vehicle at the end of the lease based on the residual amount specified in the lease contract.
 
In addition to residual + ttl, the dealer added in $250 doc fee, and $950 "dealer" fee.
 
Original contract states in the purchase option "$residual plus official fees and taxes, and a reasonable documentary fee if a allowed by law..."
 
I would argue that $250 isn't reasonable, but the bigger issue is the $950 fee. Finance manager says the is "our standard dealership fee for selling you the car."
 
My interpretation is that this is his mark-up and isn't covered under the "official fees" language per the contract. He says it is.
 
I like the car and prefer to keep it, plus we've gone over mileage (mistake) making turn in cost more than just paying the "bogus" fee.
 
I don't believe these fees should apply, but I'm not a lawyer.
 
Any advise is appreciated.
 
PS - I'm in TX if that matters.

Call your leasing institution and ask if you can return the car to any Mazda dealer... If so, call around and find out the fees from those dealers..
 
Be sure to let the bank know about this dealer... and..that you will walk away from the car if you can't buy it for the residual.
 
I'm not a lawyer, either... They should honor the contract, but I doubt it will be worth your trouble to pursue it legally.. I'd just find another dealer.

Hello sixty. Chase's October buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 CX-7 i Sport FWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00091 and 47%, respectively.
 
When negotiating your deal on this truck, make sure to take advantage of the $645 cash incentive that is currently available on leases of it in most regions.
