ggmorgan...should have mentioned that originally they were at $519 a month plus first months payment and they would pay the last three payments of my lease but not take the car as a trade. It really did not take much to get where I wanted to be. Told them I wanted $460 with only first months payment and they took my car and pandit off. They came back with $499. I said no, walked out and with two minutes they called me back and made the deal. Picked up the car the next day and they were true to their word! If you were interested in the Denali, they had quite a few but only white diamond or black and all had tan interior. Good luck and let us know how you make out!
Greetings noff72. Ally's September base lease rate and residual value for a 36-month lease of a base 2012 GMC Acadia with 15,000 miles per year are 1.2% and 54%, respectively.
When negotiating your deal on this truck, make sure to take advantage of the $3,000 cash incentive that is currently available on 36-month leases of it through Ally.

Are these rates published anywhere that I can take and show the dealer?
I was quoted 2.2% lease rate and 54% residual @ 12K miles a year (not 15K) on a 36 month lease. This was with the $3K cash incentive.
If the "base lease rate" is at a certain level, does this mean anything above that is being marked up by the dealer in an effort to achieve a profit? Should I expect to pay above the base lease rate?
Wallingford actually came in as one of the higher offers I received. Said they came recommended and let them know that if they could meet or beat another offer I received, I'd give them the business. They hemmed and hawed for a bit and came back and said that's the lowest they could go, so I walked. Vail GMC in Bedford actually had the best deal, taking in my old lease and offering me $529/month with $2K out of pocket for the Denali. I'm considering this but I really wanted to get under $500 for the car. May just wait until the end of the lease at this point.
That's too bad. I would suggest calling them right at the end of the month to see if they want to entertain your deal. I went in August 31 and like I said before they came down from $519 with first month's payment and paying the last three months of my lease to $462 with first months payment and them taking and paying off my car. Were they that far off from where you wanted to be? The other dealer I went to was Mario Daddario in Shelton, staff was very nice. I called them when I got the deal from Wallingford because they had the exact color I wanted. They were then willing to meet it but Wallingford said they would get the color I wanted so I just stayed with them. Keep trying....it's a great car.
Thanks to those that posted before - learned quite a bit. Here is what I was able to get this week - seems like a pretty decent deal:
12K miles 24 month lease MSRP: 37,010 Init Cap Cost: 35,500 Rebates: 3700 Adj Cap Cost: 32,295 Residual: 23,747 (64%) APR: 1.0% $0 down (total due at signing of $850 for 1st month, tax on incentives, plates, doc fee) Monthly Lease Rate: $380 + tax
You're welcome noff72. Unfortunately, I am not aware of any resource that provides accurate, detailed information on manufacturers' captive lease programs to the general public.
If the dealer quoted you anything over 1.2% then there definitely is a chance that they are trying to mark your truck's lease rate up. I personally would never pay above the base rate to lease a GM product.

Does anybody know what the GMC Acadia lease rates are for October 2012? Are there any capital cost incentives other than the posted $2,000 on the GMC site? Any info would be a huge help as I'm trying to evaluate the posted 2012 Acadia lease special on the public GMC site:
2012 GMC Acadia 2WD w/SL
Low-Mileage Lease for Qualified Lessees $299/month 39 month lease.
$1,319 due at signing (after all offers). Includes security deposit. Tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment extra. Mileage charge of $0.20 /mile over 39,000 miles.
Example based on survey. Each dealer sets own price. Your payments may vary. Payments are for a 2012 GMC Acadia 2WD w/SL with an MSRP of $33,660. 39 monthly payments total $11,661. Option to purchase at lease end for an amount to be determined at lease signing. plus $350 or turn in vehicle and pay $395 termination fee. Lessor must approve lease. Take delivery by 10-31-2012. Mileage charge of $0.20/mile over 39,000 miles. Lessee pays for maintenance, repair and excess wear. Payments may be higher in some states. Not available with other offers.

AND you get: 24 months of FREE OnStar, XM Radio and Maintenance
Hi jreith01. The $2,000 cash incentive that you saw mentioned on GMC's website is actually not available on leases. The good news is that there is a different $3,000 cash incentive that is available on leases of this truck through Ally.
Ally's October base lease rate for a 39-month lease of a 2012 Acadia is 1.2%.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Can I expect those same rates (54% residual, 1.2% lease rate) if I also get the GM family discount? I am negotiating a lease on a 2012 Acadia SLE AWD in Grand Rapids, MI and the discounts are good, but the lease rate seems too high. The dealer hasn't given me the exact lease rate yet, but from what I can calculate using the lease calculator on this site, it is about 4%.
Just worked out a Lease on a 2013 Denali on Long Island NY with no money down, only first payment due at signing. Sticker is $51,700. $539 per month and had them throw in the roof cross rails. $4750 in rebates. Was this a good deal?
Hi ds_atl. Ally's January base lease rate and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 GMC Acadia SLT1 with 15,000 miles per year are 1.85% and 56%.
General Motors is providing a $2,000 cash incentive on 3-year leases of this truck through Ally.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
I see the advertised lease is 299/month and 1999 down plus lic. Is this good or should I be able to do better. This is for the SLE-1 which would be a fine car for me.
I have a 2003 Silverado and 2 old chevys if there is any incentive for that.
Sure slapshot54. Ally's February base lease rate and residual value for a 39-month lease of a 2013 GMC Acadia SLT-1 with 12,000 miles per year are 1.85% and 56%.

Good question 62vette. Nothing would surprise me, but I haven't heard anything specific about President's Day specials from GM yet. I'll ask around and see if anyone knows anything. It definitely wouldn't hurt to wait to see if they do anything. It's not like you're risking missing out on an offer in the middle of the month.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
We are looking at leasing the SLE-1 Acadia.. Please tell me if this is decent or if we can do better. The only additional option is the Black Metallic Paint.
MSRP: $35,440 Cap Cost: $33,950 - $2000 rebate = $31,950 Residual: 58% ($20,555.20) Term 39 months APR = 1.85% down payment = $0 (amount due at start is $992.07) Payment = $377.64
Total
Currently the deal is $1999 down and $299 per month + Tax. We chose to put $0 down so the payment is higher but I don't like putting much money down on a lease. It does feel like the Out of Pocket is high even though it includes the first months payment.
Can you tell me if this deal looks good or should we be able to get a better deal?
laurie9973, This could never be a good deal. GMC only provide a 36 month/36K new car warranty. So you would be responsible for any failures no longer under warranty for the last 3 months of this lease. Have your dealer reduce the lease term to 36 months or lease a car from a manufacturer that covers the entire lease term. Hope this helps.
laurie9973, Car man should know if a 36 month lease has the same money factor as a 39. Regardless, it is just bad when a major manufacturer burdens a lessee with potential repair costs on a car that is not their asset. Its a pity because the offers on these cars make for a really shrewd lease at this time. My 2 cents. Good luck!
Something you have to live with... if you lease with 15K/yr, you are 9000 miles out of warranty.... the last 7.5 months of a 36 month lease..
I've put up to 54K on a leased car, and have yet to have an out of warranty repair.... some luck involved, I'm sure, but the miles between 36K and 50K are the easy ones....
Now, if you go look at the Acadia repair forums, that might scare you off...
I've leased a number of vehicles for 39 months, some with protection and some without and I've never had a problem. Perhaps it's because if the vehicle was a real dud the major problems would have happened in the beginning while it was still under warranty, but 39,000 to 48,750 (depending upon whether you do 12K or 15K for the allowance) is not really enough for the vehicle to begin falling apart. You're right, theoretically it is possible for a vehicle to have a problem in that coverage gap that one would have to pay to repair out of their own pocket...I just don't see it happen very often.
I'm a gambler, I'll go the extra three months sans coverage for another $20 per month off on the payment .
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
Car man never advocates a cash down payment on a lease. Your monthly payment would go up to about $509/mo. Edmunds.com True Market Value says you should be able to get $2,117 off MSRP on this vehicle and this dealer is only offering $1,300 off. If you can get this additional discount you should be able to get the payment down to $485/mo with no down payment. (Just first month's and title).
If you are interested in a vehicle like the Ford Explorer they have much better offers this month.
Hello, was wondering if anyone could answer some questions on a lease for 2013 Acadia. Right now my current quote from my local dealer in San Antonio, Texas is 3,000 (ttl) upfront 525 security deposit 1st months payment due Then a monthly payment of $462 This seems like a lot upfront to my husband
Also another question, we leased a trailblazer in 2006 and turned in 2009. Our new lease was declined til we submit a balance that was owed from that lease to gmac of $1000.00. They said once its pd they will approve new lease. Is that a tactic to get the balance due or would that really happen?
I leased a 2013 2 weeks ago, total down was 2500, monthly payment 343, 12k miles a year. If you are looking at the base model that seems way to high. Really depends on the option you are including.
Hi dkm7498. The selling price that you were quoted isn't bad...probably less than $1,000 over invoice. It's great that the dealer is subtracting the cash incentives from that, though GM just introduced another $500 to $1,000 op top of the two grand that you mentioned in March (it varies by region).
As peperboy helpfully mentioned, I definitely always advise consumers against making capitalized cost reductions on leased vehicles. You'd be better off doing with a zero down lease, just making the first payment at signing and rolling all of the fees into the cap cost.

We're going to be in the market for an SLT Acadia over the next 3 months in the NY/CT region, but really don't need it until early July. Is near the end of the month in June, right around 4th of July, going to be the likely best time to get a good lease deal (looking for 36/39 month lease).
Assuming we want the AWD Acadia SLT with NAV system but without sunroof (if we can de-couple), what would be an expectation of monthly lease cost, assuming 730+ credit.
I just picked up my 2013 denali with nav 49675.00 msrp. 3yr/36month lease with usbank paying 484 a month. Paid 1st and plates total was 655.00 5000 in rebates 2000 GM rebate 2000 conquest then 2) 500.00 bonus cash rebates
MSRP: $49.675 Cap Cost: $48111 - $5000 rebate = $43,111 Residual: 58% ($20,555.20) Term 36 months MF .00040 down payment = $0 (amount due at start is $655.00) Payment = $484 Also traded in month car had 7 payment left. They bought out car and gave me check for 1000.00 Was quoted about the same price from 2 other dealers and was about same on trade in. This dealer was only one that had denali with no chrome wheels or upcharge for paint color. Very happy with my deal. Based on edmunds true car I think I did well. Lmk
HI - I'm new here and wanted to run a lease deal past the group.
2013 GMC SLT 2 - Tow package, Nav, sun roof
48,000 3,000 credit Trading a 2003 BMW Xit 120K - 4,000 1,500 Cash at delivery
39 month lease - 462/ mo
Would prefer lease payment to be 399 per month. Any suggestions on how to negotiate the price, trade and credit to bring only $1,500 and get my payment to $399?
GM is offering meaningful incentives it seems -- my out the door lease on a 10k / y, 36 mo lease was a little over 500+tax ($0 drive off) -- and the denali was loaded w rear DVD screen , premium paint and chrome wheels.
would suggest emailing a few dealers first and comparison shopping. in my experience, in this day and age, if a dealer or internet sales rep is unwilling to give any starting quote on email, they are not worth visiting. But i guess this may work better in a highly competitive and saturated market like southern california than say markets where there are only a few dealers in the state.
Hi danyc1. It's difficult to say what General Motors incentives will be like several months down the road. I suspect that the end of June will be a good time to get a new vehicle, but you never know.
If you provide me with the full MSRP and dealer invoice price of the exact Acadia that you're interested in, along with how long you want to lease it for and what mileage allowance you need I can work up a payment for you. You can find this data in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
We are looking at the SLT1 with AWD and the base navigation package ($795) and all 3 rows of all weather floor mats ($225). Invoice price is $41,484 and MSRP is $43,695. We are looking for a 3 year (or 39 mo) lease with a 12k per yr limit. I understand that guessing the incentives is the great unknown, but a ballpark pricing would be much appreciated. Also, would you recommend dealing with the Internet sales team or going in and negotiating the traditional way.
