Hello stackowax1. Subaru's current buy rate lease money factor for a 42-month lease of a 2012 Legacy 2.5 Limited with manual transmission and the alloy wheel package is .00030, assuming that you qualify for its top credit tier. As you suspected, the money factor that you were quoted is slightly high.

Hi carman, I live in NY State....FYI, the previous deal I was asking about fell through because they wanted to add an additional $20 per month at the last minute and the dealer was playing games with me and I didn't like their attitudes, so I told them to forget it.
I went to another dealer and this is what I was told. The same Subaru legacy premium with sunroof and all weather pkg, $297 a month for 39 months, 10k per year with $1600 down (NY state tax 0.0875 comes to $1,014 plus $595 bank fee and tags) not sure what selling price this was based on. Are these bank fees negotiable? This one is through Chase.. You said there is a spread of about $1,750.... So am I to assume I can negotiate the price of the car down to around $23,500? This is all very confusing and frustrating!! Thanks for your help!!
Hey mooch722. Chase, the bank that Subaru uses as its captive finance company, charges a $595 acquisition fee on every vehicle that it leases. This fee cannot be waived. You can either pay it at signing or roll it into your car's capitalized cost.
You can look up this car's exact MSRP and dealer invoice price over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com. I personally would shoot for a selling price of a couple hundred dollars over invoice.

Greetings Sam. Subaru's May buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 Legacy 2.5 Limited with 15,000 miles per year are .00045 and 51%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.
Subaru is currently providing a $250 cash incentive on leases of this car in most areas. The incentive on leases of it is a little higher in certain regions, but I don't believe that Boston is one of them.

Sorry to hear that you are having a tough time in your negotiations, mrdivot. The money factor that you were quoted actually correct, but what they should have told you is that you shouldn't lease a Subaru for only 24-months. Subaru doesn't provide support on two year leases of its cars and in turn its money factors for that length lease are terrible. Go with a 36-month lease.

Hi torombolo. That was the residual value for leases with 15,000 miles per year. I believe that's the highest mileage allowance that Chase publishes residual values for. If you need to drive more than that, you will have to purchase additional miles on a per-mile basis. It is less expensive to do so at lease signing than it is to wait until lease-end.
42-month leases are a little long for my personal taste. I prefer 36- or even 39-months.
They usually waive the security deposit, so at lease signing chase charges a $595 acquisition fee, your vehicle's first month's payment and any capitalized cost reduction that you choose to make (ideally this should be $0). Any other charges would be any state taxes or fees and perhaps the dealer trying to charge you a fluff doc fee.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Hi subieman99. The money factor that you were quoted is right on the money. It's right in line with Chase's current lease program for this model.
Let's look at the other negotiable aspect of this lease, the selling price. The car that you described probably has a spread of around $2,600 or so between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. The $3,100 discount that you were quoted is likely below invoice, unless you live in an area that there's a cash incentive available on leases of this car. Either way, this looks like a very good deal to me.

I leased a new 2013 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Limited with Eyesight/navigation. The monthly payments are $330 for 42 months. I was told I would be allowed 52,000 miles when I turn it in, which was 12,000 miles a year for 42 months. When I got the paper work and looked it over, it said 52,500 miles allowed and $330.58 a month payment, so I signed it. Well, fast forward two weeks and I get a call from the dealership saying I was only supposed to get 12,000 miles a year for a total of 42,000 miles, not 52,500, which is 15,000 miles a year. Sure enough, I checked my paper work and it says I'm allowed 52,500 or 15,000 miles a year. I was more concerned with getting 52,000 a year and not doing the math so I didn't notice the 12,000 a year only added up to 42,000. I feel like the dealership made the math mistake and not me and should eat the cost on this. I thought I would check on here before I call them back.
Here are my numbers:
42 months 52,500 miles at end of lease or 15,000 per year 330.58/month 1,217 capitalized cost reduction
I have been looking to lease the 2013 Subaru Legacy 3.6R Limited. I recently test drove the exact model I have been looking for and it has almost all of the options - moonroof, navigation, and eye sight system. The MSRP of the car is $34,448 with the options and accessories I want. The dealer quoted me a monthly price of $494/month for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year with $1500 down at signing. This sounds incredibly high to me. I did not have them run my credit application because I am still shopping but I have always qualified for tier 1 financing with other primary car financing programs in the past. Can anyone shed any light on this. I know that it isn't as easy to deconstruct the structure of the deal because they didn't share the Cap Cost, projected residual or money factor figures with me - I actually didn't ask once they came back with such a high price. I appreciate any help from the more experienced leasing and financing folks on this forum. Thank you so much.
That seems high to me as well. Go to the Acura dealer and get a quote for a TL SH-AWD Tech. I bet you it's cheaper and $0 down. I never put a dime down on my leases, you don't get the money back if the car is totaled.

Hi reggotgame. Do you know the MSRP and selling price of this car? They would be a big help in evaluating your deal. If this is the nationally advertised lease then you should be able to beat it by shopping around.

When you account for the negative equity from my trade , the true cost of my lease is something like $280 / month, which I think is fantastic and is probably as low as it can get.
Oh, since my trade was pretty much equal in value to the new Legacy, my sales tax was zero. In maryland you get sales tax credit for trade in. That saved me over a thousand bucks.
