I'm thinking about leasing a Chrysler 300 base model or Touring and would be very grateful for any help you could provide. I see that the Touring has a buy rate money factor of 0.00195 in the northeast region from your previous post. How much do these tend to vary by region? For instance, I'm in southern California...is it roughly the same? Is the number also similar for the base model?
On another note, how close to a buy rate should I expect to get out of the dealer?
Thanks!

Will my $512 buy me more car somewhere else? (BMW, infinit, etc.)
Thanks so much for your help!

I am not personally familiar with the SRT Design trim level of this car, but the money factor that you were quoted looks about right to me.
You would be better off not making the $1,200 down payment that you are considering making. I always advise consumers against making down payments on leases. Those who make them risk losing part or all of them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. Other than that, this deal looks good to me. If you like the car, I personally don't see any reason not to go for it.

Thanks again,

I am trying to decide if this month is the time or if September will get better. Last vehicle we leased in September and it was the last of the good deals on the leftovers. Let me know what you think:
300C SRT Design (5.7 not 6.1 engine, but includes SRT wheels, suspension, interior, etc)
Sticker: $42,210
Selling Price: $38,177 (employee pricing, not including rebates)
Rebates: $4,500
39 months/10.5k per year = $450 per month including 6% tax, $0 due at signing
This assumes 50% residual and .00214 money; Detroit region
I know there is $1k dealer cash in the $4,500 and this also includes loyalty. Anyone have an opinion? Next month (Sept 5) will it get a little better? Thanks for your comments.

I've been going back and forth with a couple of dealerships for a 2008 Signature Series:MSRP before discounts 35,190
The best I've got so far is
434 a month with 2025.00 total down which includes fees and first month payment.
I also just got a friends and family code that I will use which wasn't figured into the price.

I am new to the whole leasing process and would appreciate a quick how-to on the negotiation and, also, the numbers I should be looking for. I am interested in the 2008 Chrysler 300 Signature Series. (Would like the Navigation System if it doesnt change the price a whole lot). I am looking for a 36 mo lease with 12,000 miles. I see that the MSRP is $32,765.
I, quite honestly, have no idea what a good rate or residual would be for the car or even what the residual really means.
Also, the family discount of 3% off the price is available to me but I am not sure how this all really factors in on a lease.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
(Somewhat urgent as I know that Chrysler is abandoning its internal lease financing at the end of July and I want to be able to secure that rate if its the best available).
Thanks so much.
Thanks
You know so much about cars! I think thats awesome! Anyhow- I am looking to get either an EL Expedition XLT 2011 due to their deals right now and the fact that I could get one of these cars under the "A" plan (which I am not sure how it works, if you do any advice would be great! Or, I am looking to lease the 2011 Chrysler 300, which it seams only the limited has a lease special? I was wondering if you knew the latest on the money factor and residual value of the 300 and any other info I may need to know before stepping foot into the dealership? Thank you for your time. I live in Virginia if that helps at all by the way..

I am looking at chrysler 300 too. It seems that they have new deal for October, did you get yours? What was your final deal?
Chrysler does have lease support available on other 300 trim levels if you're interested.
Chrysler is providing a $3,500 cash incentive on leases of this car in your area.

Looking for lease factor and residuals % for 2011 300C AWD, 36 month/12K yr lease.
If there is another combination of months/miles that is the "sweet spot" let me know.
I think there is $2500 rebate on 300C AWD + $1000 conquest through month end?
I just need to get money factor converter - 2 different dealers have given me 2.2% and 1.9% APR.

Seems high for the MSRP of the car.

2013 CHRYSLER 300C LUXURY SERIES AWD
Total MSRP was 45,335. Down Payment is $6,950 (15%). For 36-month term and 12,000 miles per year, estimated monthly payment is $374. Adjusted capitalized cost is $36,380 after 3,000 incentive.
I have not contacted the dealer and done any negotiation yet. If anyone can point to me how to calculate the residual value/money factor, that would be great. Thank you very much.

Chrysler is currently providing a $1,000 cash incentive on leases of the 2013 300 and $1,500 on the 2013 300C. There is another $1,000 conquest cash on top of that, but only for consumers who are currently leasing a competitive product.
