Lease a 2010 GT500??

I wondered about that score, too. I think the Toyota guy misread the score or was just blowing smoke. (Or he was telling you what your payment was gonna be! LOL)

#6 of 6 GT500 Leasing and Credit Score by madlock

It's possible he was quoting the BEACON or some other FAKO score - scores based on models used OTHER than FICO08 that are biased for modeling specific types of risk.

FICO proper is only useful as a base point of relative reference, it's rarely used as the final scoring model, and its range ends at 850. Each bureau has dozens of its own specialized scoring products that emphasize certain custom-tailored factors, so like Forrest Gump said, you never know what you're gonna get.

That said, 950 can be great or terrible - great if the scale ends at 950 - terrible if the scale ends at 3,000.

As for leasing Shelbys, Ford never has and likely will never offer GT500 leasing. You'd have to go to an outside bank.
