You're welcome, scoutandatty. Dealers aren't necessarily going to take a loss, certainly not a significant one, on a vehicle to blow it out at the end of the year, but they are often motivated to make their annual sales totals look as attractive as possible. Perhaps they need to attain a certain level of annual sales to receive a bonus payment from the manufacturer that they are affiliated with.
 
The main reason why it is a good idea to lease a new vehicle at the end of the year is the level of manufacturer support that is available then is generally higher as manufacturers crank up their support to make their annual sales totals look as attractive as possible. Lexus' "December to Remember" sales event is an example of this. The lease program that Lexus was offering in December is much more attractive than the one that it is running in January.

Hi thechairman1. Here's the information that you're looking for. Lexus Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 ES 350 with 12,000 miles per year are .00125 and 49%, respectively. Current ES lessees are eligible for a special $1,000 loyalty cash incentive if they lease a new one.

Hi Car_man,
I'm currently looking for the buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 ES 350 with 12,000 miles per year. I did see what the January numbers were but since it's now February I'm looking for the new rates. Any incentives out yet? Location is Las Vegas who only has one Lexus dealer. Thanks

Not carman, but why would you want to do a lease like that? If you finance 35000 (not unreasonable for MSRP 37500 with the same amount down) for five years 6.5% you would be at the same payment. WIth that lease you would be out of warranty after less than two years, and the car would need maintenance items like tires, brakes etc. IMO you should be buying the car not leasing. Leasing works great under 15K a year, after that it gets cost prohibitive.

The only cash incentive that Lexus is currently providing on this car is $1,000 loyalty cash for current ES lessees who lease a new one.

Hi bobpro98. Wow, 25,000 miles per year. That's a lot of driving. I agree with the previous poster that you probably should finance instead of lease this car. That's what I would do if I was in your situation.
 
If you are really set on leasing it, you need to find out what selling price you are being charged. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Without this number, it is difficult to tell how much of a dealer discount you are getting. In an area that has a decent level of competition, like the one that you are in, I suspect that you will be able to negotiate a selling price that's fairly close to dealer invoice.
