Here you go, cluedweasel. Volkswagen Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 Volkswagen Rabbit 2-Door with 12,000 miles per year are .00299 and 70%, respectively.

Car_man lease numbers please by frooky

Could you please tell me the lease numbers for November? I'm looking at a fully loaded 4-Door with manual transmission. MSRP would be roughly $21,403 with 17" wheels and Protection Package or $19,774 without those two options. If you would happen to know how much those two options cost to put on separately that would be great too. I live in Kansas if that makes a difference. Thanks!

I forgot to mention mileage. 15,000 miles/year for whichever length of term is the cheapest monthly payment.

Hi frooky. You can look up the prices of the options that you are interested in by visiting the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. As far as this car's lease program goes, it varies by term and mileage allowance. You never mentioned what either of these variables are, so for now I will assume that you are interested in a 36 month lease with 15,000 miles per year. Let me know if you want something different. VW Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Rabbit with 15,000 miles per year are .00261 and 58%, respectively.

Lease MF/ Residuals by lilturd71

Hey there, Car_Man.
 
Could you please let me know the money factor and residual on a 4-door, manual trans 2008 Rabbit? Lease period 39 months, mileage 12,000 per year? Thanks.
 
I test drove it a few weeks ago and had them give me a ballpark quote on what a lease would be for the car $23K. Of course, I'm going to haggle to get it for around the invoice price of $20,366.00, no money down.
 
They gave me a "quote" of $299/mo for 39 months w/$2,500.00 down. That seems like an awful lot. They said that for each $1,000 deducted from down payment amount, add $25 to the payment. So, that would make it around $362/mo if I didn't put anything down.
 
I have a 2005 Toyota 4Runner (lease is up in a couple of months), and the payments on that thing are $375 (39 mo lease).
 
I want to make sure I'm armed with enough ammo when I go in there. They usually look at a woman car buyer and assume she doesn't know how to deal. Wrong!!!!
 
Thanks much for any help!

2008 rabbit lease and buying help by rachkap

Hello car man,
I have a few questions. I am looking to lease a rabbit for 39 months, 12k/year, 2000 down in NJ (7% sales tax). My dealer kept saying what a great deal the cars are right now in December. I am curious if I really am getting a good deal. The price of the car I picked is 17504.
1) What should my monthly payment be for a lease?
2) What should my monthly payment be to buy over 60 months at an apr of 2.9%?
3) What is the residual factor on leasing?
4) What is the money factor on leasing?
 
I am not too familiar with the vw pricing or deals since I was originally looking at a mini cooper. Any help that you can give me in making a good decision would be helpful. Thank you, car man.

08 rabbit lease deal by aleafinsf

Hi everyone,
 
I am a new rabbit owner and wanted to share my lease experience as I figured that the numbers provided by dealers don't really mean much. There are way too many other variables (besides downpayment, interest %, # of months...etc.) involved when they actually come up with a quote, which will remain a mystery, and I don't mind. Here is the deal I got for my 2.5 automatic 08 Rabbit. $1,200 down (including everything) $250 (inluding tax) 24months.
The car doesn't have any extras on it but I am happy with is as it is. Except for one thing, my current mpg average over the frist tank was 15.6 which I posted on a seperate discussion .
