I went to my dealer here in Austin,Tx and was just informed that the fx has tax credit on the lease! That means no taxes!
for FX35 RWD, with (Touring, Hands free, Sport, Silver roof Rails, Slpash Guards).
I hope this helps
bobfx35
Touring, hands-free, Technology, IPOD, cargo mat, black rails, splash guards,door guards, pinstriping
MSRP $48K
$2200 down
$599/month including tax, title, license
I believe the money factor was 0.001 and the residual was 67% with 12k miles/yr
I think this is pretty decent, any opinions? Thx, Steve in Va Beach
I
I went out and bought the hood protector and the sunroof deflector yesterday. They make the FX look very sporty but they sure were a pain to install, especially the hood protector...
does anyone know what to expect for the capitalized costs on the FX45s in the rainy northwest- Tacoma area.
Thanks
The lease that they are offering right now for $399 is awesome... It has a money factor of 0.001 and a residual of 67%. I just leased my fully loaded graphite colored FX35 AWD (everything but sports package) with MSRP of $48K for $599/month including tax, title, license and $2K down. It is basically the same deal with the extra additions and the lower down payment. Have you ever heard of getting a $48k car for $599/month... If you check lease trading sites, a similarly equipped FX35 AWD goes for about $800/month.
In regards to leasing for36 months, DON'T DO IT... The lease is special for 24 months and goes up quite a bit after that per the manager at my infiniti dealer. Wow, he actually was looking out for me instead of the bottom line... Don't see that very often. I was very pleased with my experience and am now finding accessories to put on my FX35.
One more thing... Apparently the 2009 model of the FX35 (that will actually be released 2 years from now in late 2009) will have all the neat stuff the other infinitis have now like touch screen navigation with hard-drive to backup and store your cd's onto and the neat gadgets on the soon to be released EX like the birdseye rear view monitoring and more advanced lane change technology. Maybe even other neat gadgets knowing infiniti...
Touring, Hands Free, Splash guards, Roof rails and Cargo protector
MSRP $42,575
15,000 miles per year
24 months
$529.99 due at signing
$529.99 a month
Includes NJ 7% tax, lic, MV, bank fee, doc fee etc.
I thought I got a pretty nice deal, considering that the sale price is way into holdback.
Now another dealer is telling me he can beat the deal by $300 by using a non IFS deal.
The dealership is offering $508/month with $4000 at lease signing for a 24 month 12k lease.
A few questions.
How much should I push to lower the cost closer to invoice? I am inexperienced in dealing with Infiniti.
Is it better to keep my money and accept the higher payment, or put the money down. Either way it is within our means, just want opinions on money management.
Sounds like a good deal?
Thanks
42 months "best deal available"
MF 0.00195
MSRP $56000
Silver (tech pckg)
10K miles/yr
residual at 53%
anyone know how well this can be negotiated and what numbers might be reasonable?
im guessin tax dmv is added on top. so ..
Manhattan Infiniti offered me $300 off my best price with an outside bank.
The $529.99 deal was matched by every NJ Infiniti dealer I negotiated with.
Total out of pocket was first payment.
From what I was told, holdback is 1% for Infiniti. The deal works out to below invoice, cutting deeply into the holdback.
Touring + Hands Free + ipod+cargo+roofrail+splashguard
does that look like a good deal ?
i was given msrp $43020
money factor as we know 0.00014
NY tax is about 8.65%
i think cap cost was about 396xx and some change. about 50 or 60 bucks...
CAP COST ( Negotiated price of the vehicle)
residual is at 67% - ( 28823 or something like that )
2200 down ( includes Everything even dmv and title and the whole nine yards)
so out of pocket completely is 2200 )
and then 450/month for 23 months.
( i think i am paying about 400-500 over invoice with this deal ) ?
Host please advice about the deal ? thank you in advance.
__ REQUEST _ A SECONDARY question for the host ______
i did a lot of research and reading and got a much better understanding to how lease works and wt pit falls to look out for.
i do understand - why its important to know the msrp and mf and cap cost to evaluate the payments and see wether the dealer is giving a good price.
BUT at the end of the day doesnt it come down to really just numbers ?
down payment and per month ?
i mean lets be realistic ... when i did my calculation and even used the calculator provided on leaseguide website the total cost to own was 12100 or so and with the deal i am gettin 450*23 + 2200 = i am paying 12550 -
i guess somewhere in between there is a difference of 400-600 bucks ?
i went to many different dealers and the deals starts at 3200 + TAXES and stuf as DP and 420/month after negotiating a lot..... it finaly lands somewhere in the same ball park as 2500-2700 down pmt ( complete out of pocket with tax ) and 450-500 a month. depending which ever way you arrange the numbers.
they dont really cut you a lot of slack. even if i do the calculation and show em they will just turn around to say well gota add this fees or that fees to increase the cap cost ?( bank fee 595 or handling fee 550 etxx ) you see.. OR EVEN TELL ME THE down payment was just fees and taxes ? so then the down payment doest even act as a CAP COST REDUCTION -- they are alwas looking to make a certain number minimum on the car. from there perspective its above invoice and on the deal wtever it maybe. ( do fill me in please)
from a consumer perspective its more of
( HOW much is it going to cost me to lease this car for X time ) and it really didnt do much cuz all the numbers i tried and bargained landed me around $12400 - TO about 12700 out of pocket expense for consmer - ( one of em almost said out loud $13700 as this was a straight fwd deal from the infiniti.com + taxes and dmv.)
how do i go about it ? is it my call to say What is dp is for ? or where they should be applying it ?
im sorry if this blog took a lot of ur precious time but i just had to ask, its a learning process for me.i do understand its better to know this stuff and walk in the dealership which gives upper edge of negotiating rather then not knowing anything...
if anyone out there finds this blog interesting please let me know. i put a lot of time and research into getting this specific deal. anyone with a better deal please post it up,
thanks.
EVERYONE PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ADVICE IN.
(fx35 awd 12k 24mth hands free + touring)

" we want to see your car - if there is equity left on it we can purchase it for cheaper then market value and pass the savings on to you " does that even Sound right ?

Yes. If there is equity in the vehicle, you will benefit.

All of that being said, it is no commonplace to actually have equity in a lease, but it happens.

2008 FX35, RWD, NAV, Touring, Hands Free. MSRP $44,875.00. Cap Cost $41,875.00. $1,500.00 down (includes first payment), 24 month lease, 15k miles per year, payment of $589.39. Is this a good deal?
MSRP 39370
Selling price 35729
24 months / 12k miles
1583 drive off
385/mo plus tax
This is in Socal and Infiniti waived my first month payment because I just ended another lease.
Can you tell me which dealer in SoCal you got this offer, seems pretty good...
Thanks..
Would like your opinion on this lease I was offered..
2008 FX35 RWD, touring, bluetooth,ipod
MSRP $41,250
Cap Cost 39,371
MF .00001
24 month, 12k miles
$1,555.30 due on delivery(1st payment, license/smog, doc fee, tax, bank fee)
$545.44/month
I think it's a pretty good deal, based on the MF being so low.
Only question is, should I try to negotiate the cap cost down, and if so, how do I negotiate that?
Thanks very much for you help..
FX35 with handsfree, touring, tech-nav, splash guards, roof bars, ipod.
30k miles/yr (60k for the term of lease)
24 months. First payment of 1858 which includes first payment, bank fees, and license fees. Then 23 payments of $739/month which includes my 9% tax rate. Any comments?
Just looking, it sounds like I might be able to buy one new nearly as cheap as a used one in the DFW area. The waranty appeals to me over the Murano warranty. The wife really wants a Murano, but they are everywhere. Of course, the FX is a drivers car (?)
Are the sales deals as good as your stated lease deals? Details, please.
I have the following being offered by the dealer on a lease-
FX35 AWD, HFP, Touring, Tech, Sport, IPOD, Splash Guards, Crgo Protect. MSRP is 48765 and they are willing to do the deal at CC of $44,853 ($500 over invoice), 67% residual, MF of .000140, plus a $595 Acquisition/Assignment fee. I've been pushing for CC of invoice without an Acquisition/Assignment Fee but no luck.
Is it possible on this model lease to push the dealer to a net invoice CC or even below invoice?
Look forward to hearing from y'all
However I have seen the 12k 24 month IFS residual listed at 68% on another site for December.
1. The new 2009 body should be revealed at this year's auto show. Has anyone heard about what kind of change it will be?
2. I like Infiniti but the Lexus RX350 is out there too. Any thoughts about a comparision?
3.The coupe is my first lease. Any experiences with returning a car that has a ding/scrape the size of a credit card but the rest of the car is pristine? Will they kill me on charges?
Thanks all. Any insight would be appreciated.
