#137 of 176 Outlook XR FWD Residuals? by msjhsap

Oct 29, 2007 (9:03 pm)

I don't know who to believe. I have been told by two Saturn dealerships that a 39 month 15K XR Outlook residual is 60% (6.45% is accurate). Do residuals change from from state to state? I am in Northern California. Is there a GMAC website that I can reference with these numbers? When I referenced your numbers they told me "Edmund's numbers can't be trusted... they are estimates." They showed me their sheet and it did say 39 months 15K was 60%. Also, does the $500 from GMAC only apply to buys or SmartLeases as well? By the way... Saturn deals just like anybody else. They dropped $500 from the MSRP just so I would not go to another dealership.

Car_man, I really appreciate both your insight and patience with all of us in here. It may seem like we constantley ask the same questions, and ... I guess we do some of the time. The challenge is that we often get differing stories from separate dealers. I am not convinced that aving a rapport with a sales person at a dealer will ensure that I am getting the true facts from them, ... especially when they ralize that I qualify for supplier pricing!
 
I have spent too long trying to decide btween Outlook and CX9, I am now ready to buy an Outlook assuming the numbers stack up favourably against the Mazdas.
 
Please can you confirm the November Residual and MF for the following:
2008 Outlook XR AWD - 10k miles PA, over 36 / 39, and I was told that there is a 30 month lease?
 
I have recently been quoted: 6.45% across the board with: 36-65%, 39-64%, but then yesterday another dealer told me 6.45% with: 30-64%, 36-61%, 39-60%! This puts the Outlook OUT of the running!
 
I'm ready to ready to sign for a Silver with black interior with: PCK, UR3, PDC, PDD, and TVD if the numbers play out. Please note NorCal dealers.
 
Thanks,

"Hi kmurray5. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Saturn Outlook XR AWD with 12,000 miles per year are 6.45% and 66%, respectively."
 
Is this still the case in Nov.? I was looking at the Acadia but the loaded Outlook appears to be a much better deal.

Hi msjhsap. Vehicles' residual values should be the same across the entire country. I am pretty sure that GMAC's current residual value for a 39 month lease of a 2008 Outlook XR with 15,000 miles per year is 63%. I don't believe that GMAC provides information on its lease programs directly to the general public. The $500 customer cash that GM is currently providing on this truck is not compatible with its lease program.

You're very welcome, maverick8. I'm always glad to help, unless I haven't had my coffee yet . According to the latest information that I have seen, GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Saturn Outlook XR AWD with 10,000 miles per year are 6.45% and 69%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise 39 month lease are 6.45% and 68%. I haven't seen this truck's 30 month lease program but one might be able to lease it for that long. If so, the lease rate would be the same, but the residual value would be a little higher.

Hi garrick. General Motors is providing lease support on the Saturn Outlook right now, but its program is nothing to write home about. Its current program is scheduled to run through the end of the year and I don't anticipate GM making any enhancements to ie before then, but you never know.

Carman, I was just quoted 6.45% and 64% for a 39month lease on a 2008 Outlook XR FWD - 10k/yr.
This is different from what you stated and I wanted to know if the residual value difference is due to it being a FWD as opposed to a AWD. does this make a difference?
thanks

Hi,
 
I am thinking about leasing a 2008 Saturn Outlook XR AWD by the weekend. The sticker is $35,000 and change with destination charges. I am planning on putting down $4000.00 down in total, 15,000 miles per year, for 39 months. The dealer quoted me $440.00 per month including tax.
 
Can someone please tell me if this is a good deal?
 
I thank you in advance,
 
Jesse

Hey Carman,
  Can you provide the January Lease numbers for the 2008 Outlook(I'm posting in the GMC Acadia forum too)? I have a lease calculator, just need the MF/lease rate and residuals. I am specifically interested in a 36-39 month lease w/ 12k miles in New Jersey.
  
Thanks a lot for your help.
