Not favorable. 59% residual at 3 years. Means a lot of depreciation with a fairly high money factor. I saw some folks getting quotes for about $800 per month with tax included and zero down.

Ouch. Considering loaded 09s had been leasing for around $450 a month, that's a bit of a kick in the pants.

Check out the Acura MDX forum Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences. There are several of us who're holding back together in NJ!!
 
They too have good incentives. And if you happen to like MDX, the best price around North Jersey is supposedly Acura of Ramsey. Somebody in the Acura forum was able to get a deal at $38500 (09 MDX with Tech Package) with 2.9 or 3.9% APR for 5 yrs. If you like the X5, you will be pleasantly surprised with the MDX. MDX rides totally differently than Lexus or BMW though. In my humble opinion, it's more sporty and rugged. Performance wise, it blows Lexus and BMW. And their electronic gadgets also blow their competitors. In terms of services, this is where I'm not too happy about. We went to several Acura dealerships to service our RL and they rarely have any loaners available. You have to make an appointment like at least 3 days in advance. HQ Customer Services follow up dilligently with most complaints though. A colleague owns a Lexus and he told me that Lexus' HQ Customer Care never follows up on complaints. Only on praises.... that's why they have "over the chart" customer satisfaction... hehehe....
 
Subaru isn't going to budge their prices. While other car manufacturers suffer, Hyundai and Subaru are actually doing very well in comparison. Please tell your coworker to stay away from Ramsey Subaru or any other Ramsey Auto Group (Acura of Ramsey is not a part of this group). They got sued and lost due to their unethical business practices, and still they scam at every possible opportunity. We got scammed and I would never forgive/forget it. Will find out the name of the salesperson and post it on ripoff.com. That should teach him a lesson... Subaru itself is not a bad car. It's a high performance car (at least mine is). But the electronic gadget is sooooo outdated.... HQ Customer care is somewhat descent, though you really have to make your case with them.
 
Anyway just my 2 cents. I'll never consider cayenne.... it's too much hassle, and not enough ROI. My Subaru has the same boxer engine... not sure how long it will last as this is the first time ever I own a subaru, but crossing my finger.

Can you share how you call their bluffs to get to the $37k with NAV? Did you get the F/AWD? (Sorry, I can't call it an AWD in my good conscience as it's not a full time AWD)
I was told this much for their demo with 3000 miles in it.

Do any lexus web sites list New Inventory? by gregd1

Hello,
I have been looking at many Lexus dealer's web sites. And none seem to show their new inventory. They display used inventory. But no new.
Has anyone seen a Lexus dealer's web site that lists new inventory?
 
thanks

Hey soonercat,
Are you sure about that 59% residual? That's actually a very favorable 3 year figure as most vehicles are now listed in the low 50% to high 40% range for 3-year residuals (typically based on 10K or 12K miles per year). Many manufacturers were bitten pretty hard with lease returns that had a market value well under the buyout price, so they reacted by reducing the residuals. A residual of 59% could save you about $80/month compared to a 52% residual for a new RX (using their standard .00275 money factor and guessing at a typical price). Then again, it is a 2010 model and it is still early 2009 on my calendar, so maybe that's figured into the 59% figure.

I too got a great deal on an '09 RX 350 (no nav) at Lexus of Rockville. I worked with Sam, and he was great. Definitely gave me a better feeling than many of the other shadier dealers out there.
