Here we go again carman! You helped me out really good with my accord and I got a great deal, now my girlfriend needs some help. The lease calculator isn't helping too much, but here are the numbers: MSRP 34,440 For 2005 G35X AWD 4DR. Residual Value 20,073, dealer says he is giving it for 2000 under invoice. This would be a lease for 36 months for 15,000K a year with 2532 due at signing which includes 400 cash downpayment, sales tax, tire disposal fee, advanced payment(first month) and bank fee. The monthly payment would be 389. However the only piece of info I do not have is the money factor. Let me know if you think this is good because I need to make a decision by 6PM NY time on wen. sept 1st. Thank you so much again!!!

Welcome back joker382. $2,000 under dealer invoice is an outstanding price for a 2005 Infiniti G35 AWD Sedan. If you were to lease this car through Infiniti Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00094 and 57%, respectively. I would be happy to use these numbers to calculate a sample lease payment on the car that you are interested in for you if you let me know exactly what price $2,000 under invoice is for the model as you want it equipped.

#6 of 7599 g35 Coupe Lease help by danv99

Hi Car_man,
 
I am looking to lease a 2005 G35 coupe within the next 2 weeks. I'm in northern NJ, if that makes a difference. Here are the #s.
2005 G35 Coupe
MSRP $36250
$1541 down w/ 1st payment/MV fees/registration/bank fees
$810 tax upfront
36 m lease 12k Mpy.
 
They quoted me $475 a month. I'm already leasing a car through NMAC so I should have no problem with getting top loan approval
 
Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi:
  
I'm considering trading in my QX4 (2002) for 2005 g35x lease. The local dealer has g35x w/o premium package but with some dealer add ons with a sticker price of 34610. He then has a "discount" to 32945. MSRP is 32800 w/o add-ons. Invoice is 30, 167. As of yesterday, there are 5 or 6 of these on the lot. (Also has a couple with premium pack).
  
Lease deal being offered has bid downpayment $4700, 10K miles (which is fine for me); 3 years, residual 59% . Rules in monthly payment of $330.
  
I have a few questions, and would appreciate thoughts on any of them. (I haven't leased before) This would be my 3d infiniti.
  
1. Does leasing affect the price received by the dealer? If not, shouldn't I be able to get close to invoice on the sales price? (Is is common to ignore the add ons, which I wouldn't have requested?)
  
2. I think there may be some funny business with the lease offer. I would have expected a residual with at least a 12 K lease. Apparently the actual residual experience of the G35s is about 61%. By reducing the lease to 10K, is the dealer just trying take an excess profit on the back end? (Note: 10K is fine for me, but should it result in a higher residual than a 12K?)
  
3. Alternatively, the dealer may be playing games with the interest rate on the lease. He indicated that the apr for the lease was $2.5% (which translate to a money factor of
.00105). Is it possible to disguise a higher interest rate by deflating the residual?
  
4. What is the likelihood of getting the blue book value on my trade in. The infinity dealer has already offered 17K. (Sales agent said that they took of 1k because is needs a bit of reconditioning. I think this is BS. The reason bluebook is less than private sale estimates is to account for reconditioning costs.) I have an offer of 18K from a Nissan dealer. Blue book is 18.5 K. (My QX4 has less than 30K miles. Comparable dealer pricing seems between 24 and 26K, so even at blue book he has plenty of room).
  
Thanks for any thoughts. I has cross posted this on the pricing thread, because it seems more active
  
Best,
  
glk

Hi danv99. You never mentioned the selling price of the car that you are interested in leasing. This is an important number for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing the price of the car that you want to lease you don't know how good a price you are getting it for. The second reason is that one needs the selling price of a vehicle that they want to lease is that it is necessary to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to work up a sample lease payment on the car that you are interested in for you if you let me know what its selling price is.

Looking for lease figs on the 05 G35 Coupe I just purchased.
 
Purchase Price: $33,980 MSRP= $37,800. Just looking for money factor and residual value percentage I suppose - I can make the rest of the calcs myself. If it makes any difference (on the MF or Residual Val.)we are looking at a 36 or 42 month lease.
 
Tks in advance.
