Hey Car_man,
 
I think there is a typo in the reply you gave above. You mention "2007 GMC Acadia" twice, but give different lease rates. Is one of them supposed to be for a 2008? Which one?
 
I've got a dealer quoting me 9% (or .00375 money factor) on a '08 SLT-2 with a 63% residual on a 12K/36mo lease.
 
Thanks!

I just started this whole lease process, and would love any help in learning how to negotiate. I am looking at 2008 SLT-1 2008 Acadia in Louisiana. It has added DVD System, Convenience Package and Tow Package. I am looking a 36 mo 15,000 mi. per year. They are quoting me 8.99%Rate LEV 22089 with a payment of 628+ taxes. The "final list price is 35520.00 + 397.50 for "Customer Service Package" and various license/Title Fees, etc. I know I can do better, but I want to be armed with facts. Any thoughts........Thank you in advance.

Deal on 2007 Acadia SLT2 fully loaded with 500 miles on it. by mauxus

Hi all,
 
my first post on the forum but I've been browsing around edmunds for the last month. I love the good info you can get here. But everything is so new to me and there is so much to learn that I'm not able to put all this info together to make it useful right away. Can you help me?
I have this deal in my hands, what do you think about it?
 
2007 Acadia SLT-2 FWD, 500 miles odometer
MSRP: 42470
Invoice: 39940
Selling Price: 38730
Money factor: 0.00309 for 39months/12000mi
Residual: 26703 (is it approx 62%???)
$4000 out the door
$454/mo tax included
 
My worries are:
1) probably doesn't include gap insurance (still waiting for an answer)
2) it has 500 miles on it.
3) isn't the down payment a little high considering it has 500 miles on the odometer?
 
If you dont think it's a good deal, what should my counter offer be?
Please carman, I know you are busy but if you have a minute I would appreciate your input too
 
Thank you

2008 SLT-2 Lease Question by silver17

Hi all: Need a little help on whether this is a decent lease deal. Also, CAR MAN, I'd much appreciate it if you could provide the 10/08 residuals and MF for 39 mth-15K miles. Thanks in advance.
 
2008 GMC Acadia SLT-2, AWD, Nav, DVD Ent, Trailering, 8-Pass, Pearl White Diamond Tricoat.
MSRP - 44,625
Selling Price - 42,500
Conquest - 500
$2500 out of pocket (I'm sure some of this is going to cap cost reduction)
$683 per month w/NYS Tax
 
Also, does anyone have any information about the $450 or so package which protects against a 2000 mile overage?

Better to Lease or Buy Acadia by baseballmom97

It sounds as if the lease program for GMC Acadias is not attractive right now.
 
Is it better to purchase an Acadia and finance it or lease it? Anyone have a quick answer? Thanks!

GM's lease rate by octagon3

Do you know how low GM has gone with it's lease rates in general? I know we won't be seeing any programs on the Lambdas for a few months, at the earliest - just want to know if it is worth waiting a little while before doing a deal.

Welcome mauxus. Let me see of I can answer all of your questions.
 
1) I believe that all leases through GMAC automatically include gap insurance at no additional charge, but you should check with your salesperson to be certain.
 
2) The selling price that you were quoted on this truck looks pretty good to me. You are getting a vehicle that does not currently have any cash incentives available on it for less than dealer invoice. This is a reasonable price, even after taking the fact that it has 500 miles on it into account.
 
3) You really should not make such a large down payment when leasing. I always advise consumers against making big capitalized cost reductions on leased vehicles. Those who make them risk losing part or all of them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be a little higher, you would be better off going with a zero down lease.

Hi silver17. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 GMC Acadia with 15,000 miles per year are 8.0% and 60%, respectively. As you can see, GMAC publishes lease rates instead of money factors for the vehicles that it leases. You can convert its published lease rates into approximate money factor equivalents by dividing them by 2400. I do not believe that GM is currently offering 39 month leases on this truck.
 
Let's take a look at the selling price that you were quoted. The Acadia that you are interested in probably has a spread of a little over $3,200 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. That puts the selling price that you were quoted at a little over $1,000 over dealer invoice. That's not bad, but you definitely should stop by the "GMC Acadia Prices Paid and Buying Experience" discussion to see how much other community members have paid for similar trucks lately.
 
If you think that you will drive more than 15,000 miles per year, you should be able to purchase additional miles on a per-mile basis. It is usually less expensive to do so at lease signing than it is to pay an excess mileage penalty at lease-end.
