Took delivery of a new XF S/C. Love the car but miss alot of the features of my previous Infiniti M45. especially the navigation system. The Infiniti had superior electronics in almost every category including awesome DVD surround sound stereo, predictive backup camera, tire pressure readouts, maintenance logging/reminders, seating position memory on key fobs, etc., etc. And the Infiniti voice controlled everything - the Jag only controls Nav and Telephone. The REALLY annoying thing about the Nav is you can't enter a destination with voice while driving, only by entering manuallly while stopped. Though the touch screen is nice compared to the dial inputs in the BMW and the like. On the plus side, the fit and finish is excellent. The car has the most luxurious interior I've owned with minimal use of plastics and maximum use of leather and wood. Very quiet and it feels very solid, very heavy. But fast and it handles amazingly. And it's a work of art on the exterior. Constantly getting compliments and I have a unique car that you don't see on the road very often. So I'll eventually get used to not having the electronic luxuries and appreciate the car for what it really is, a true driving machine. I'm in New york and leased through US Bank. With a few dealer add-ons (tinted windows, spoiler, chrome power vents), my 39 month, 12k lease is $899/month with about $5k out-of-pocket (mostly New York State taxes). Compares pretty favorably to the competition for a fully loaded XF.

Replying to: texasguy8 (Jun 21, 2008 1:17 pm) XN is leasing through US bank who right now has fairly aggressive numbers for most jags and Land Rovers. It looks like texas's dealer is using Jaguar Capital Group and since Jag and LR are still running all of their leasing business through Ford but aren't owned by Ford any longer Ford is not offering aggressive leasing programs. Texas ask your dealer if they are signed up with US bank and if they aren't they should be. Call around to find a Jag dealer that is signed up. |

Replying to: texasguy8 (Jun 21, 2008 11:35 am) It's interesting to see that Jag is starting to deal on these cars, which I think are the car to beat in this category over the next few years. I couldn't wait, so I recently made a deal on another E350 4matic, which have EXTREMELY aggressive lease rates ( .72% equivalent lending rate - no, that is not a typo), and heavy reduction from MSRP. So, it's essentially free financing on a heavily discounted car. About your deal, it's looks straight forward, but your monthly payment is based on a monthly cost of depreciation that subtracts the residual from the MSRP, and it should be based on the residual subtracted from your net CAP COST. This means your net payment should be $1034/month, assuming an 8.25% sales tax rate. And, your financing rate based on this is 7.68%, which sounds like Jag's financing terms, and I hear that US Bank goes a couple of points lower. Otherwise, your financing cost must be much higher if the depreciation was calculated from the CAP COST. Remember, your final lease contract will only state dollar figures, not percentages, so the correct cost of the lease is irrelevant once you've agreed to a final price. the percentages and numbers can be manipulated and played with to the dealers or leasing company's advantage. Other than that, the XF is a beautiful car, and I hope it lives up to it's promise, and I'm sure you'll enjoy the car at whatever price you pay. My motto is that you can always get a better deal, and you can always get a much worse deal.
