I had just spoken with a salesman at Fitzmall.com and was told that a fully-loaded V6-AWD (LX, NV & SR), 36 months, 12K miles/yr, and no money down would run $656.75 per month, with the money factor at an incredibly high .000335!
 
Obviously Toyota is not too worried about competition when a fully-loaded 09 VW Tiguan is currently leasing only for around $400 per month Sign Then Drive!

Hi everyone,
 
Since Toyota has only built about 6500 Venzas, about 5 per dealer, and the fact that Georgetown is taking an extended holiday break, it would seem that incentives on the Venza may be little ways off. Also, since they launched it in December instead of January 2009, there will be a model year change later in 2009 ( before the current inventory is even close to one year old in actuality.
 
Thank you for this and other message boards on Edmunds.

I decided to pull the trigger on an 09 Mazda CX9 instead, since Toyota didn't even want to be bothered ~ With MSRP of $40,860 (which is $2K higher than the Venza), I was able to drive away with nothing down, TTL included, for 36 months, 12K/year, a monthly payment of only $551! It is the Grand Touring model with all the amenities and very similarly equipped as the Venza.
 
BTW, I did go and look at the VW Tiguan and was very disappointed in everything about it!

I have enjoyed this discussion. The Dealers are certainly not "dealing" much on Venza to my way of thinking considering the current economic environment. I just finished a TL lease (a realy fine car- but I want more trunk space.)
 I am looking at a Venza (The Acura dealer has offered me a 36 month lease on 2009 TL, base model, for $90 less a month than on the Venza described below.)
 
I am trying to evaluate the lease offer and wonder if it would pay to purchase a lease evaluation package. I have seen them on-line for $20 to $70. Are they worth the cost and effort?
 
The Venza lease I am being quoted is with an adjusted cap cost of $32K, money factor of .00285, and 36 months lease payment of $649 for 6 cyl Venza with JBL SYNTHESIS SURROUND SOUND SYSTEM (EJ) and PREMIUM PKG #2 (LX)
What is a good way to evaluate this offer other than just looking at the ajusted cap cost and the money factor? Or is that all I really need to consider?
Thanks.

Hey gensherman, you should be able to evaluate a lease on your own when you are equipped with the right information. For your deal, you'll need more information, including: Full MSRP of the Venza, actual selling price (price as if you were paying cash), residual percentage (percent of MSRP you would pay for the vehicle at end of 36 month lease) and the money factor. Once you have that info, use any of several on-line lease calculators to determine your monthly lease cost. Armed with that information, go back to the dealer and renegotiate. I took a rough guess at MSRP and residual, but your figure of $649/month is way too high, even if your out of pocket costs are nothing more than first month's lease payment. The dealer is likely rolling in other costs such as taxes and acquisition fee (these are typical charges), and some unknown dealer "fees." Your best bet for getting a good lease deal is to negotiate your best purchase price (dealers here in the Wash DC area are offering Venzas for $3K to $4K below MSRP) and then understand every other charge that is going into the lease fee. And always shop around for the best deal, you can always bring the best offer back to your local dealer to see if they will match it. With Toyota Financial Services, the residual % and the money factor are pretty firm and the dealer has little control over these, thus the only thing they control is the purchase price. Good luck.
