#332 of 393 Questions about leasing a 2010/2011 Prius IV by lasaab

Mar 03, 2011 (3:57 pm)

Hi there,
 
I'm trying to figure out the best possible lease deal available in California (I'm based in Los Angeles) for a Prius IV. Looking to lease something by April 1.
 
I don't really care about any of the upgrade options other than leather and navigation, but from what I'm told it makes more sense to get the Prius IV than to look for a Prius III with these two things added.
 
I want a lease for 24 or 36 months, don't want to put anything other than tax/title/tags down, and need 12k miles per year.
 
I'd love to get as close to $300 a month including tax as possible. Is that realistic?
 
Also, are they still leasing 2010 models or do I have to get a 2011 model (and is there a big difference in the models?)?
 
Thanks!
A

Maybe you should check out what South East Toyota does before you try and tell me I am wrong. SET is completely different than any other region in the US because the guy that owns the franchises never sold his rights back to Toyota.
 
Plus the fact that I actually executed a deal kind of proves me right, dontcha think?
 
So when you go to lease a Toyota in the SET they have something called "Residual Assistance", which is not a deduction due to taking less miles or something like that, it is a straight adder to the calculated residual. I believe the residual is not calculated on options but the assistance helps to offset it.

Having just leased a III with NAV this past weekend here in LA, I would say you would be fortunate to get one for $400 with tax.
 
Also, something you may not know, but Toyota doesn't include GAP insurance in their leases...you need to buy it in the finance department (or maybe your insurance company can cover you)...they charge about $15-17/month for that...so tack that on to the above payment.
 
Good luck.

#338 of 393 2011 Prius III Lease - Thoughts? by socal18

Nov 13, 2011 (8:48 pm)

Have an deal on the table for a 2011 Prius III with Nav and Solar / Moon roof. $26,850 purchase price, 12,000 miles, 36-month lease, $15,800 residual for $385 / month (including taxes etc.).
 
There is a good chance I guy the car off the lease but wanted the optionality of a lease. Any thoughts on that deal? Any more levers I can try to pull?

Nov 18, 2011 (10:35 am)

Hi Car Man,
 
I'm in Los Angeles area and was quoted Money Factor of .00025 and 57% Residual for Prius II for 36 months/ 36,000 miles.
 
Does those number sound right?
 
Thanks

Any news on what the MF and Residuals for December are? I was told it's 0.0002 and 57% for a prius II. Any ideas what it is for a prius III? (36 months/36,000 miles)
 
Many thanks!
