The Hybrid gets a $2350 tax credit, but not if you lease.
However, because I pay AMT, I am not eligible if I purchase.
I have a negotiated cash price on a car, but am now thinking that maybe I should lease it instead and reduce the price by the credit (given that the leasing company gets it).
Am I missing anything? Has anyone had luck doing this?
I'm new to the whole leasing thing but this is what I've been offered. Can anyone tell what they think of the deal I'm supposed to pick up the car today. 2008 altima 2.5s standard model with the cvt transmission metallic jade 39 month lease $300 down $658 back to me to pay off my other car gap insurance included 1st payment included 269 + tax a month I don't know the other numbers yet I did the deal last night but dealer said i couldn't take delivers or finish the paperwork till today because they were getting extra incentives starting friday feb 15th Please contact me I pick up the car at one and sign the paperwork thanks
Alsellit - It's difficult to tell if this is a good deal without the MSRP and Negotiated Price for your car. However, I made the following assumptions... MSRP = $21,775 (B2.5S, Dest. fee, Splash Guards, Emerg. Aid Pkg., Floor mats) Negotiated Price = 20,363 (Invoice price on the above) Money Factor = .0015 Residual Value = 60% Added costs = $658 (old car payoff), $595 bank fee Tax Rate = 8.375%
With all of that said... your payment should be $263.43 + 22.06 tax.
So you are in the ballpark of a reasonable deal. However, any of the assumptions I had to make could throw the numbers off. If you have better info, I could give a better answer. With the add'l incentives they are getting on the 15th you might be able to negotiate a better deal, but I don't think you are getting totally screwed here or anything.
Car Man I got these figures for a 2008 Altima 2.5SL. near Pittsburgh Sticker: 23,630 Sale Price: 21,377 (300 below invoice) 39 month lease Residual 59% Money Factor .00150 No cash exchanged, No Trade Sign & Drive 280.00/mo plus 9% tax = 305.20 Does this sound appropriate ?? Question 2: What is a "Rent Charge" on the lease agreement
I have been in the car business for 6 years now. If you are buying the Altima for 300 below invoice, that is a good deal! I leased myself a 07 Altima 3.5SE manual for 39 months. The residual factor is right were it should be and the money factor is penuts. For 280/mo plus the tax of 9%, I think you should do it. You will love the car
Another thing that you might want to do is ask the dealer what specials are running right now. Make sure you tell him to run it at the figures that you agreed on, but just changing it up to a 36mo or a 42mo might make a difference.
As far as the "Rent Charge" goes, I have never heard of that. Some states might be different but make sure that you ask the dealer that question. Don't sign anything until you see the contract, and make sure to look at what you can buy the car for at the end of the lease. Take that number and subtract it from what the agreed price is (21,377) and calculate it. Some dealers are not that honest about those things.
Another question I have regarding a lease - I'm tempted to trade in my '03 TrailBlazer, which would significantly lower my payment (worth about $8300 trade in according to kbb.com). The worry is if something happens to the new car (i.e. stolen or totalled), I lose that money. Any thoughts?
Don't do it... Just have the dealer cut you a check for your trade.. Put it into a money market account and withdraw an equal amount each month... The difference will be negligible..
The rent charge is the amount of money that the Money Factor or interest rate is equal to over the life of the lease. Its the interest charges as a total. So if there were such a thing as a MF of 0, the rent charge would be 0.
Somebody tell me what it's gonna cost to lease an altima hybrid with all options (navi, etc). I think the MSRP is like 32000. I know the 2.5 is discussed a lot but I am interested in buying a hybrid. Anyone know?
Hubby & I leased an '08 Nissan Altima 2.5L Coupe 3 weeks ago. The residual value was set at 14038. Yesterday the "new finance guy" from the dealership called to say that the previous finance guy set the residual value too low & the papers needed to be re-done & re-signed. He tried to paint a pretty picture by saying that our payments would be lower. Funny thing is that some friends of ours bought a new Infiniti about 2 wks ago & they got a call last week about the exact same thing. My questions: is the residual value in fact too low? At that amount, percentage-wise, it's 61%. Hubby & I are happy with the monthly payment amount & we have yet to call this finance guy back to let him know we won't re-sign papers. Can you shed some light on this residual value situation? Your help is greatly appreciated!!!
I'd very much like a head-check on this deal for a 2008 Nissan Altima 2.5 sedan: - $1,500 out-the-door (includes some cap reduction, tax, title, first payment, etc.) - 24 month term - 12k miles per year - base model (no add-on packages) - $246/month, including tax - money factor is $0.0014 - residual is 71% - I am in Southern California, and there are no special promotions here now.
I have read many forums and websites regarding ending a lease early, but I am still relatively confused. I love my vehicle but realize that I am currently paying too much for my current budgetary needs.
I leased a 2007 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE last April. My lease terms are 39 months with a 455 dollar monthly payment. I traded in my car when signing up for a lease, and they gave me 4K on that. According to NMAC, my residual amount on my lease is 15.5K. I have not gone in to ask for an exact payoff amount, but I was informed there was a 1200 dollar early termination fee. So basically, I have paid 10 payments on my lease and would like to know if anyone can give me a detailed description of what I would owe. Hopefully, there is someone out there that can help me. Thank You.
I think your best option would be to buy out the lease and sell the car. However I think if I remember with my last lease - at least 12 lease payments needed to be made in order to permit a lease buyout.
The only other option I could think of is to approach them about leasing a less expensive vehicle through them - perhaps they wouldn't penalize you as much - although you will still have significant costs rolled into the new lease payment - however I am sure it would be less.
Good Luck - I had similar feelings (I leased the same exact model/trim, and pay a little more - but I didn't put anything down) but I have calmed down since.
Call NMAC rto get the current buyout price. The termination fee only applies if you END the lease prematurely with no intent to make the final payments owed. As long as you either buy the lease out, or make all the payments, you can end the lease without penalty. If the car is worth as much as its current buyout number you may be able to sell it. It will be a big PIA but you should be able to get out.
I posted this in the buying group by mistake, but I wanted to post it here as well. Thank you all on this board for helping me work on what I think is a good lease. It was my first time doing it. I had very little time to research due to my wifes car dying and we cant be withou 2 vehicles.
I just leased the 3.5SE LOADED including tech package for my wife yesterday at Sheridan Nissan in DE.
$1993 down inclusive of $1079tax, 185-tags, $369 1st payment, $300-security deposit 15K miles per year 39 month lease
Maybe I could have done better, but try to give a rookie (me) a break. When I walked in the door, they wanted 2K down and $550/month payment which is absolutely stupid.
Thank you guys for all of your help. I gainnes alot by observing your conversations.
The dealer will have no problem buying your Altima. However, you should try to work w/ more numbers to see if it's better for you to buy or to lease. Since you have a lot of equity w/ your current car, it might be better if you just buy instead, sale tax credit...etc.
Hi brendan. Your car's lease payment will vary depending upon what its full MSRP and selling price are. You never mentioned the selling price, so for now I will assume that you are getting a $1,000 discount on this car. Let me know if the selling price that you are getting is considerably different. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2008 Nissan Altima Hybrid that has an MSRP of $32,000 and a selling price of $31,000 through Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp, right now for 39 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $480. If you were to lease with only 12,000 miles per year, this payment would drop to around $472. Unfortunately, I am not sure how much additional security deposits lower money factors and in turn lease payments through NMAC.

Hi ajpbf7. Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp.'s current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24 month lease of a 2008 Altima 2.5S CVT with 12,000 miles per year are .00122 and 69%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease are .00122 and 60%. I don't believe that NMAC offers leases with only 10,000 miles per year, but if it does their residual values would likely be 1% higher.

Greetings dstokl51. $300 under dealer invoice is an excellent selling price for a leased 2008 Nissan Altima. The money factor that you were quoted looks about right as well. This looks like a good deal to me. If you like the car, I personally don't see any reason not to go for it.
In answer to your question about the "rent charge," vehicles' lease payments are composed of two parts the depreciation portion and the interest portion. The rent charge is the interest portion of your car's monthly payment.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Hi minicheru. You never mentioned the selling price or MSRP of the Altimas that you are interested in leasing. These are important numbers for you as a consumer to know for two reasons. First, the selling prices of leased vehicles can be negotiated, just as if you were paying cash for them. Without knowing what this vehicle's selling price is in relation to its MSRP you don't know how much of a discount you are getting on it. The second reason is that one needs the selling price and MSRP, including the destination charge, of a vehicle to calculate its lease payment. I would be more than happy to give you my opinion of this deal if you let me know what these numbers are.

Hi amc1201. If there is a mistake on your car's contract, the dealer may not be able to submit it to Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp. and you may have to sign another contract. On the bright side, if your car's residual value was set too low raising it would lower your monthly payment. A lower payment is a good thing. Just make sure to pay close attention to the documents that you have to sign.

Hi flyinlynx. This car's lease payment will vary depending upon its selling price, how long you lease it for, and what mileage allowance you need. I can work up a sample payment on it for you, but I am going to have to make some assumptions. For now I will assume that you are going to be able to negotiate a $1,000 discount on it and will lease it for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year. Let me know if any of these assumptions are off. According to my calculations, if you were to lease an '08 Altima Hybrid that has an MSRP of $32,000 and a selling price of $31,000 through NMAC right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $493.

Greetings newnissancar. The best way to evaluate a lease is to look at the selling price. The selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. The auto market is pretty soft right now. If you are in an area that has a decent level of competition, you shouldn't have much trouble negotiating a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice on a Nissan Altima right now. You can look up this car's exact invoice price over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. Once you arrive at a selling price that you are comfortable with, have the dealer calculate your monthly payment using Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp.'s buy rate lease money factor of .00122 (.00015 higher if you wish to have your car's security deposit waived) and you're in business.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
HI jab2007. I am sorry to say that it is usually fairly expensive to get out of leases well before their scheduled end dates. In order to do so, you need to purchase the vehicle that you are currently leasing from the bank that you are leasing it through. It often turns out that it costs more to do so than your vehicle is worth on the open market. Furthermore, many banks expect consumers who end their leases early to still make all, or at least the depreciation portion of their remaining lease payments. As you can see, this can get very expensive.
You can determine approximately how much it will cost you to get out of your current lease by comparing its purchase price to its value on the open market at this time. You should place a call to the bank that you are leasing your vehicle through to find out its exact price. Once you know exactly how much money it is going to cost you to buy your leased vehicle you need to compare it to its current value on the open market. You can find out approximately what your vehicle is worth by looking up its Edmunds.com True Market Value in the Used Vehicle Pricing section of this site. You also may want to stop by the following discussion: "Real-World Trade-In Values". Don't forget to check to see if you are still on the hook for your remaining lease payments. The difference between your leased vehicle's current value and how much it will cost you to buy it plus any remaining lease payments that you are obligated to pay will equal the cost of getting out of your lease right now. You may find that you are better off waiting until you are closer to the scheduled end of your lease to get another new vehicle.

HI from the post above it says that you can't apply the rebates to the lease price? So the price I've been negotiating with dealer will go up $1250 if I decide to lease instead of buy? 08 Altima Auto 2.5S with SL package,floor mats,splash guards, $22162. Also the Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp.'s current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for 36 Mo. 15K is .00122 and 59%, is this correct. :confuse:
That's correct, czcon1. Nissan's consumer cash incentives are not compatible with NMAC's special lease program. If the dealer used the cash incentive that is available on the 2008 Altima to arrive at the selling price that you have negotiated the capitalized cost for your lease would be higher. On a lease of an '08 Altima I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over dealer invoice. The money factor and residual value that you mentioned are correct for a 36 month lease of an '08 Altima 2.5S Sedan with an automatic transmission and 15,000 miles per year.

Hi I was wondering what people thought of this deal 2.5S Auto SL Package,Mats,splash guards,sunroof wind deflector,first aid package. MSRP $25705. 7.5% tax, $800 down $325 Mo for 36 Mo. 15K year lease.
I'm trying to get a good lease on the 2.5 S Coupe. Looking at a car with MSRP of $23769. With $3000 down, I'm looking for something in the $270 area. Salesman in N. Carolina came back with .00244 money factor and monthly pmt of $307 for a 39 month lease 12k mi, 57% residual "Best Deal". Sounds about $35 high, right? He didn't really want to discuss 36 mo lease. Is the S coupe not covered in Nissan Corp lease program? If not, what should a good lease payment and math be? My credit and FICA are very good.
New to the forum. Just wanted to know what you all thought of this potential lease deal, I'm from NY if it makes a difference.
2008 Nissan Altima Sedan (2.5SL w/ connection package) Dark Slate Metallic exterior, charcoal leather interior Wind deflector, floor mats, first aid all included 0 money due at inception, absolutely nothing. No first payment, no taxes, no security. 36 months, 12K miles/year, $359/mo (payment includes taxes)
Apologize if I've missed this here but I'm looking for the Money Factor and residuals for a 2008 Altima Coupe 3.5SE w/ Premium and Technology package for 24 and 36 month terms. Second part of the request would be to know if possible if these numbers will continue past March or end at the end of the month?
I need someone out there who knows the money factor on a Nissan Altima 2.5S Auto Coupe. My current lease is about up and I am ready for a coupe. I want to do the 36 month lease with 15,000 per year so is the residual on this only 58%? Was hoping for closer to 60%. If someone can help me with the money factor and residual I will greatly appreciate it. I have to get her a to drive ASAP but I don't want to be ripped off. I have A++ credit in case that helps.
Armed with the lease rates from online source (LeaseCompare) on an Altima Coupe 3.5SE w/ Premium and Nav for a 36-month lease, I started emailing local dealers for a price. Got what I thought was a good starting deal ($29,411) from an MSRP of $31,555. But when I asked about monthly payment their numbers come back seemingly wrong. Here's what I have from LeaseCompare:
Base Rate = .00244 Residual = 56% By my calculations, this should equal out to monthly payment of $441 What dealer provided was: $485.07 plus tax Net diff over the lease term is $1584
What's wrong with this picture? Are my numbers off? Are they rolling something into the lease payment and not telling me?
Hello, great forum here. I'm new to leasing but think I have the basics - basically, the price of a lease is the total depreciation (negotiated selling price of car minus agreed upon residual value) + borrowing price as calculated by the money factor. That being said, I have 2 questions:
1. How do I factor in taxes (and what is a good or standard tax rate) and down payment into this equation?
2. Would anyone here be able to provide me with the residual and money factor for a 2008 Nissan Altima 2.5S Coupe CVT (dark slate) with P01 Premium Package, J01 Moonroof, F10 Foglamps, A92 Moonroof wind deflector? I am in San Gabriel, CA and have 4 dealers in my immediate area.
Comments
However, because I pay AMT, I am not eligible if I purchase.
I have a negotiated cash price on a car, but am now thinking that maybe I should lease it instead and reduce the price by the credit (given that the leasing company gets it).
Am I missing anything? Has anyone had luck doing this?

It's difficult to tell if this is a good deal without the MSRP and Negotiated Price for your car. However, I made the following assumptions...
MSRP = $21,775 (B2.5S, Dest. fee, Splash Guards, Emerg. Aid Pkg., Floor mats)
Negotiated Price = 20,363 (Invoice price on the above)
Money Factor = .0015
Residual Value = 60%
Added costs = $658 (old car payoff), $595 bank fee
Tax Rate = 8.375%
With all of that said... your payment should be $263.43 + 22.06 tax.
So you are in the ballpark of a reasonable deal. However, any of the assumptions I had to make could throw the numbers off. If you have better info, I could give a better answer. With the add'l incentives they are getting on the 15th you might be able to negotiate a better deal, but I don't think you are getting totally screwed here or anything.

I got these figures for a 2008 Altima 2.5SL. near Pittsburgh
Sticker: 23,630
Sale Price: 21,377 (300 below invoice)
39 month lease
Residual 59%
Money Factor .00150
No cash exchanged, No Trade
Sign & Drive 280.00/mo plus 9% tax = 305.20
Does this sound appropriate ??
Question 2: What is a "Rent Charge" on the lease agreement

I have a 2005 Altima which I own (paid in full).
If I wanted to lease a new 2008 Altima would the dealer be willing to buy back my current Altima? Do they even do that? The KBB value is around $10700
Any advice would be appreciated, Thanks.

Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
I was wondering what people thought of this deal
2.5S Auto SL Package,Mats,splash guards,sunroof wind deflector,first aid package. MSRP $25705. 7.5% tax, $800 down $325 Mo for 36 Mo. 15K year lease.
I'm trying to get a good lease on the 2.5 S Coupe. Looking at a car with MSRP of $23769. With $3000 down, I'm looking for something in the $270 area. Salesman in N. Carolina came back with .00244 money factor and monthly pmt of $307 for a 39 month lease 12k mi, 57% residual "Best Deal". Sounds about $35 high, right? He didn't really want to discuss 36 mo lease. Is the S coupe not covered in Nissan Corp lease program? If not, what should a good lease payment and math be? My credit and FICA are very good.
Thanks,
Brian in NC
New to the forum. Just wanted to know what you all thought of this potential lease deal, I'm from NY if it makes a difference.
2008 Nissan Altima Sedan (2.5SL w/ connection package)
Dark Slate Metallic exterior, charcoal leather interior
Wind deflector, floor mats, first aid all included
0 money due at inception, absolutely nothing. No first payment, no taxes, no security.
36 months, 12K miles/year, $359/mo (payment includes taxes)
Good?
Any assist would be appreciated.

Thanks so much! :-)
Base Rate = .00244
Residual = 56%
By my calculations, this should equal out to monthly payment of $441
What dealer provided was: $485.07 plus tax
Net diff over the lease term is $1584
What's wrong with this picture? Are my numbers off? Are they rolling something into the lease payment and not telling me?
1. How do I factor in taxes (and what is a good or standard tax rate) and down payment into this equation?
2. Would anyone here be able to provide me with the residual and money factor for a 2008 Nissan Altima 2.5S Coupe CVT (dark slate) with P01 Premium Package, J01 Moonroof, F10 Foglamps, A92 Moonroof wind deflector? I am in San Gabriel, CA and have 4 dealers in my immediate area.
Thanks!
What is your monthly?
What is the current money factor?
Sorry to be so brief but I have no info for this model?
Not a good deal for you.... I just signed a deal yesterday for the EXACT same car in NJ.
2008 Nissan Altima Sedan (2.5SL w/ connection package)

$330 (first month payment) Out of Pocket... NOTHING ELSE.

I shopped about 10 NJ dealers. What do you guys think? Good deal? Great deal?
Thanks to you all for the info before I shopped!
