Why put $10K down on a lease? That money would be lost if the car is stolen or totaled.

Can you please help me determine if I am getting a good deal with this limited info? Thank you so much in advance.
Need the sale price or adjusted CAP cost.
I will say that fees, taxes, etc don't add up to $3200 in CA

Program as of this morning. I'm so floored and confused. So here are the numbers. Please help, of you can. Thank you so much.
-2018 F Pace 25T Premium
-MSRP- $48,060
-Sales price - $43,257
-Cap cost red - $1161.35
-Drive off - $3400
-36 months/10k miles / California
-It has about 50miles on the car so far
Thank you.
The numbers looks pretty close. Looks like they were trying to keep the monthly payment under $500/mo, and that's why your upfront money keeps fluctuating. Basically, $1160 of your upfront money is put toward lowering the payment.
Looks like a pretty decent deal.

The first one looks the best, obviously.. same sale price for a more expensive unit.
I'd rather have $2000 less out of pocket, and the resulting $60/mo. higher payment.
You don't have to structure it the way they've quoted it.

Can you please tell me what you think of this offer? And if you think I could do better? Thank you so much.

$3000 total drive off (incl all fees, tax, 1st pmt, etc.)

They offered $580 pre-tax (CA). Do you think $597 including tax would be possible and worth it to counter? Thank you.

The "adjusted cap" looks like the residual value.
Using the MSRP and selling price, I get a payment of $573/mo before tax.
MF markup adds a whopping $11 to the payment ($584/mo before tax)
What is the breakdown of the $3K driveoff? In CA, you should only pay the first payment and DMV costs, maybe $1200 total.

Sorry I'm slow... does your response mean that they inflated the MF? Should my payments be $573/month pre tax? If so - anything under than $600/mo would be a good deal, right (with the $3k down)? Thanks for being so patient.
We aren't fans of down payments on a lease - it masks the true cost of the lease (it's really closer to $700/mo) and, the up front money would be lost if the car is stolen or totaled.

I get the same number they do.
$918 seems like a really high license/registration fee..
I don't know for sure that it's too high... but, I would have expected around $600-$650.

The Jag i-Pace (all electric) is set to debut in 2019. Do you know if the RV/MF will stay roughly the same for an iPace as it is for an F-Pace on a 36/10 lease, or can't we say for sure at this time ?
Thoughts ?

25T R Sport in Colorado MSRP: 64,468
10,000 miles, 36 months
First offer:
63,299 with 1,00 down and 1,000 rebate
Payment without tax 867
Money factor states .0290 but I think this is a typo and not sure if it was calculated into the numbers
Second offer:
60,529 with 5,000 down
payment with tax and fees 756
tax rate is 7.65 and $54 per month
money factor=.0190 but must be .00190
Third offer:
Assuming 60,529 with 1000 down
Payments at 815-830, not sure if this includes taxes or not or what the money factor is.
None the less, I am very confused with how they are coming up with the numbers. I appreciate any insight and advice! Thank you
Let's start with the basics - 36/10 numbers on the 25t R-Sport are 52% and .00001 (yes, almost free money).
Any MF above that is extra profit for the dealer. Doesn't matter how big a discount you are getting off MSRP, that MF hike will kill your payment.
Next - down payment. In short - we suggest you skip it. It masks the true cost of the lease, and that money might as well be thrown into a fire if the car is stolen or totaled. Only first payment should be due at signing in CO, since you pay registration separately. All other fees should be rolled into the selling price and the monthly lease payment.
The number you want from the dealer is the adjusted cap cost, which is the negotiated selling price plus any fees (acquisition fee, dealer fee) added in. Get that number, and the full breakdown of how they arrived at it from the selling price you negotiate.
However, let's do some calculations with the prices we do have, and the base MF quoted above.
Offer 1 - $828/mo plus tax
Offers 2 & 3 (since they are the same price) - $751/mo plus tax
Suggest you use this link to build your own calculator:

BTW, which dealer are you working with, that is charging up the wazoo on the MF? I've heard not-so-nice things about Stevinson on Broadway, as they are losing their Jaguar dealership soon (will be combined with the Land Rover Denver store further south on Broadway).

Yes, all offers with the same MSRP. This has been an interesting experience, I started this process with one salesman and then had to work with another for timing purposes. I am fine/understand but a lot of information was lost in transition. (Corporate rebate codes, down payment preferences, etc)
Another peice of this puzzle is I am trading in my current leased vehicle. My payoff amount is $1,600ish less than the auction price, minimal equity. They are considering it a wash, which is why I did not mention it earlier.
The MF has no bearing on my credit score, correct? Again, I don’t think they are typing their MF correctly via email or on invoices (“.0190”) But I mentioned it being above the base and was told....”Typically when you get in the higher trimmed cars, the MF changes.It is different for every trim level and even depends on the options it has. Each car comes with a code from Jaguar for the MF” Any additional advice you have? Walk away? Ha!
I will ask for the adjusted capital cost, that has not been provided to me and I can’t make sense of any of the offers in any online calculators I have used. They did tell me on the second offer they were only making $200 on my deal. Based off of their invoice price and the price they were selling it to me for.
I completely agree on the down payment front, and have never put any money down on a lease and certainly don’t plan to. I recently relocated to Colorado, so I appreciate you telling me about the registration as in Missouri I did not have to pay registration fees. I haven’t been able to find a calculator for this, do you know of one?
I am not working Stevinson, but honestly I couldn’t say enough good things about their dealership. I did not get into hard numbers with them as they did not have the trim I was looking for but I did test drive the S model and the salesman I worked with was really great! I am sure it is a different story when you getting into the numbers game.
Thank you so much for your time!
Yes, money factors can change, if you pick a different trim level, but the highest MF on any 2018 F-Pace for 36 months is .00042 for the base model. If it's a 25t R-Sport, then the base money factor never changes for 36 months, no matter how many options. It's .00001 MF. So, "typically" doesn't mean anything, in this case.
For the first quote, they can't be marking up the money factor by much. By the time you add in acquisition fees, dealer fees, etc, etc, the payment looks about right.
But, read back through this discussion, and see what sale prices that others are getting. Seems like bigger discounts should be available than what you've been quoted.

Sorry I am so needy, I am pretty clueless when it comes to this stuff but I greatly appreciate all the help and advice. This is what they sent over this morning, I STILL can't get the numbers to add up, all the calculators I use have higher numbers. I feel like there is something missing?

If this is the 25t R-Sport, the 36/10 numbers are 52% and .00001. Using the MSRP and sale price from the document, I get a payment of $778.88/mo before tax.
One of two things:
1. The sale price is not the same as the cap cost used for the payment - as noted, it may not be, as the acquisition fee isn't anywhere to be found. Get the cap cost from the dealer.
2. The MF has been marked up by the dealer for extra profit.

The money factor just isn't right.
Even if the numbers were semi-correct, it would be .00190 with two zeroes, not .0190
Try this in your next communication:
"Hey... give me the actual @#$% money factor you are using... it starts with a decimal point, followed by at least two zeroes!"

I would assume I can just ask for a lower MF? This is the first time I am negotiating my own car, I am not very good at it. Thank you again for all your help and advice.
The disposition fee is charged at lease end, so it's not part of the equation.
It does look like the money factor is .00019.
To get the pre-tax payment, the adjusted CAP cost is about $62940.
How did they get there?
$61529 sale price
+$895 acq.fee
+$599 dealer fee
-$82.14 CAP reduction.
In the example shown, it looks like the $1000 rebate is covering the first payment and CAP reduction. I think the $900/mo. is Sign and Drive, with $ZERO out of pocket, not even first payment.
The base money factor would drop the payment to about $881 from $900.
