#384 of 482 2012 Enclave Convenience FWD 24/12k lease by johnnh

Jun 17, 2012 (8:15 am)

Hi Car man....
I was at a local Buick dealer to Lease a 2012 Enclave Convenience FWD model (MSRP ~ 37,000) and was offered the following options:
 
Current Buick Offer for 10 k Lease is $3200 down payment, $299 monthly + fees + tax.
 
Offered choices:
24 months /12 k Lease for $ 364/mon
36 months /12 k lease for $ 391/mon
39 months /12 k lease for $ 383/mon
(all above offers with 2 yr free maintenance, On Star, and XM radio).
 
With my 1st requested offer is 2000 down, dealer wants a monthly payment of $385/mon. What would be the best monthly rate that I should seal the deal? Any thoughts/recs......
 
Many thanks.

Hi cargirl123. The dealer invoice price of the truck that you're interested in is around $39,063. So the price that you were quoted is around $800 over invoice...which isn't bad. The cash incentive that you were given looks good, through the lease rate looks slightly high. I believe that the rates for US Bank and Ally are 1.0% or lower. It isn't much of a difference, but it's worth looking into.

Hi johnnh. If I was in the market for a 2012 Buick Enclave right now I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice minus any available cash incentives plus the use of GM's base lease rates.
 
You can find the exact invoice price of the truck that you want over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
 
General Motors is currently providing a $2,020 cash incentive on 24-month and $4,445 on 36- to 39-month leases of the 2012 Enclave through Ally.
 
Ally's current base lease rate is 1.0% for all of these terms.
 
If you provide me with the exact MSRP and invoice price of the specific model that you're interested in I'd be glad to use the above data to work up a sample payment on it for you.

I saw the sweet 24 month lease Buick is offering on the Enclave and thought I would be able to get out of the negative equity situation I am always in.
Dealership says the bank will only finance $1000 to $1500 over msrp on a lease.
Is this true?
They didn't even run my credit. They said I have 9000 in negative equity. They have never had a problem rolling it in before 125% above msrp. Are leases different?
If the lease deal is 299 per month and you add in negative equity it should be less than the 736.00 that I am paying now right? Then after 24 months no more negative equity. I can then start over.

Hi mrc123. What you were told is correct, mrc123. Most banks publish something that is called an MRM, which essentially is the maximum amount of money they will finance on a particular car or truck, for every vehicle that they lease. Dealers are not allowed to exceed this MRM on any transaction. I don't know the exact cap on this vehicle from GM Financial, Ally, or US Bank (the three finance companies that GM runs its leases through), but it is very possible that they will not finance much more than full MSRP on a lease. Keep in mind that most banks are being much more conservative today than they were prior to the financial crisis.
 
To be honest with you, unless there is some huge reason why you need to get out of your current vehicle now, you would probably be much, much better off waiting until you are less upside down on it to get something new.

Hi, I am trying to get a feel for a good lease offer on a 2012 Enclave Leather AWD. The MSRP is 47,175 with an invoice of 44,845. I am eligible for about $5500 in rebates. I am thinking of putting $3000 down and was wondering what would be a good monthly payment for either 24,36,or 39 months. The dealer sale price right now is $41,625 with rebates included. Thanks for your help.

Hi fabster32. What is this vehicle's selling price? That number will make your deal much easier to analyze.
