    Hey Everybody.....in the process of a leasing a 2009 FX 35 RWD.........does anyone know the current residual and money factors for May 2009....i'm planning 15K miles for either a 36 or 39 month term. I would appreciate it. Thanks.

    Hi. I kind of have this urgent question. Fx is the first car that I will be leasing (owning to be exact) in my life. So I got some info from these forums and had an idea for a lease. Then I went for a test drive today and the salesman put me on the spot that what would be the deal that you would take the car today. I had some numbers from TMV and some MF and residuals ready. So I just said 675 per month for a nav and delux Turing and he seemed positive. It was weird! so I said that I come by tomorrow. Do you feel that with 1000 down this sounds reasonable? :confuse: I would really appreciate any reponse. This WA btw

    Check the dealer offerings on swapalease to see if your deal makes sense. You can call the leasing companies who list and request a quote for the exact car you want -- ask for zero down -- 36 months -- 10 or 12k per year. The lease assumptions posted by individuals are listed first -- not very attractive. Let us know how it goes.

    Hi, I just leased an FX. I'm from WA too. The best deal I got after a lot of back and forth was 626 + tax...for Premium, nav, deluxe, touring, 2500 down and 2000 loyalty rebate. The dealer is not willing to use IFS money factor. So I called off and leased one from CA. This is my deal Premium, Nav, Deluxe Touring, Ill Kick plates, Tow, Splash, Cargo etc., selling price 48500, 2500 down, 2000 rebate, IFS money factor and residuals for 39 mon/15000 miles. I'm extremely happy with the decision and the car is a blast to drive.. :) Hope this helps.

    Hi jayrider. Thanks for the info. I thought swapalease was a website to get into the middle of a lease. Can it be helpful even when I am getting a new lease?
  • sananasanana Member Posts: 14
    Hi coolguy8157,
    Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure as I was reading your reply. the 626 that you said was from CA not WA, right?
  • jayriderjayrider Member Posts: 3,602
    Lots of new cars for lease. For instance. I saw an 09 Audi Q7 offered for $535 -36 month-10k.Zero down. Called and if I was ready to go was offered the same deal for the premium with roof and extras. Of course its in NYC but that gives you an idea of what is possible. After you get to the site click on search and enter the fx 35 -09 and hit search on the bottom. Scroll thru til you get to the dealers and check each one. Most of the low prices have $ down so keep looking. Good luck.

    Can you folks please tell me if this is a good deal or not. I'm new to leasing so would like your help.

    Don't qualify for the 2K loyalty.

    Sell price = $46200
    39 month lease at $579/mo with Total fees = $2500 out of pocket incl. Tax + registration in NJ (~$311 for 4 yrs)

    Hi,

    Can anyone explain how dealer tax credits can be used to decrease the cost of your lease? That's what a dealer is saying they'll do on my proposed lease.

    Also, do money factors vary by anything more than model? Do they vary by the length of the lease? or by a vehicle having a sports package?

    Anyone know the money factors for may? I'm looking at a fx50 with sport/tech if that helps..

    Thanks so much!

  • jayriderjayrider Member Posts: 3,602
    You are eligible for a sales tax credit on your federal income tax. That is your money. Don't know what the dealer tax credit is. If the sales tax is 3k then you can deduct that next april. It effectively reduces your lease but has nothing to do with the dealer.
  • breesbrees Member Posts: 8
    hi Jayrandall - so after all the back and forth i decided to buy the FX 35 2009 the sales person is offering me prem/nav/tech @ 49,998 MSRP final price- 42000 +do you think this is a good deal?
    thanks for all your help.

    I own an Infiniti FX35 2003. I want to sell it, but I don't have the time to sell. Any suggestions?
  • qbrozenqbrozen Member Posts: 32,889
    so, i assume you don't want another vehicle, taking away the possibility of trading it. In which case you can go sell it to Carmax, for instance, or pretty much any dealer who is willing to buy it. Other than Carmax, I would try an Infiniti dealer first, of course. You won't get nearly as much as selling yourself, but that's the penalty for not having the time.

    Hi Maverick09. Since you don't qualify for the $2,000 loyalty cash, the selling price that you were quoted on this truck looks like an excellent deal to me. Just make sure that the dealer that you are working with is using the .00074 buy rate lease money factor that is currently available on this truck to calculate your monthly payment and you're in business.

    Hi Car_man, and thanks for all the info you provide on these forums.
    I was wondering whether I can get the MF and residual values info for the Infiniti FX50 on longer lease terms like 42 or 48 months for 12K miles per year? Is there a general rule that we can use to convert 36 or 39 terms into these longer ones?
    I think it might worth taking a look at these longer options payment-wise as the initial warranty is for 4 years.
    Can I also get the same numbers for FX35 too??
    Thank you!

    2009 FX35 / Navigation / Deluxe Touring / Premium
    10,000 Miles / 39 month lease
    $0 Down
    $2,000 Loyalty
    $52,050 negotiated price
    $625 a month (Taxes included 8.375%)

    I honestly do not think there is anything better. Please prove me wrong. I am currently paying $504 on my 2007 FX on the 27 month lease, so the new premium is killing me.

    Thank you

    I'm in the same boat as you. I have a 2007 FX35 with payments at $490 a month...looking to get a '09 FX35 Nav / Premium (no touring) and getting quoted around $580. I was quoted $610 if I wanted to add touring (and I'm in socal so tax is 9.25%).

    Infiniti will send you a $150.00 owner recommendation rewards card (AMEX)

    Please send me an email to oldsmarflorida@hotmail.com the following info:



    Owner redemption code
    VIN
    First Name
    Last Name

    Thanks
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    You're very welcome, sanana. Here's the specific info that you are looking for. Infiniti Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 42 month lease of a 2009 FX50 with 12,000 miles per year are .00098 and 45%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 48 month lease are .00113 and 41%.

    The numbers for a 42 month 12k lease of an '09 FX35 AWD are .00078 and 48%. The 48 month numbers for this truck are .00089 and 43%.

    Manufacturers' lease program for longer terms don't vary from their programs for shorter terms by a specific amount. The difference can be all over the place.

    Went to the Infinity dealer (South Bay) today and got the following quote, I'm new to leasing so had some difficulty understanding whether the offer was agrressive or not.

    AWD Premium and Nav was quoted at 47,042 after doc fee and bank fee. and cap reduction was 1142 bringing the net cap to 45,900.

    my final calculation was 39 months, 10k per year, 2,500 due on delivery and 628.7 per month (rent and tax included)

    For buying, they have 8,000 off by the way. Can I negotiate a better net cap? will a 12k per year package cost much more? What will a 36 nonth lease do to the monthly payments?

    Thanks
  • gedalneilgedalneil Member Posts: 16
    Not sure if you received the loyalty program ($2,000 value if you own or lease an Infiniti now). I think your cost is still a bit high though. With just Premium and Navigation and 10,000 miles, you should be able to get that payment down $20 more month. I will let car guy chime in.
  • gmsmithgmsmith Member Posts: 6
    I might go back and push the deal a little bit. I am getting a 2009 FX, Premium/Nav/AWD for 39 months, 15k/mo for $590 (VA tax + rental). Drive off is $1233. Just waiting for the FX to get off the boat.

    MSRP: $50,200 (or close)
    CAP: 45,200 (I think, or close to it)
    MF: .00074
    Miles: 15k
    Residual: was ridiculously low
    Due on Delivery/Drive off: $1200

    I am actually buying from a dealer in NY.

  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi cassy1028. Let's take a look at these deals. The 2009 FX35 that you are interested in has a dealer invoice price of $45,628. Is the capitalized cost that you mentioned this vehicle's gross capitalized cost before the down payment is being taken into account or its net cap cost after the down payment. If you're talking about just the straight selling price before the deduction of the down payment, this is a killer deal. The cap cost that you were quoted is below invoice. If the down payment is being taken into account, then this deal is around $700 over invoice, which still isn't bad.

    The 2009 EX35 that you described probably has a spread of around $3,350 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. The cap cost that you were quoted is way below that. The dealer must be taking the down payment of $3,500 ($4,000 - $500 loyalty) into account here. Even so, this deal still appears to be below invoice, which is excellent.

    Other than the fact that you should go with zero down leases rather than making down payments, I personally don't see anything wrong with pulling the trigger on these deals.

    This is a response to the EX deal
    "
    EX35 Premium and Nav...MSRP 42265
    Cap 34959
    resid 27893
    39 mos
    12k
    4000 down
    $443/month
    "

    I am a newbie, and trying to understand this stuff from a cost basis.
    The EX figures are all off in my perception.

    If the figures are right, you are paying $17000 for financing $7000 over 39 months. If I were presented these figures by the dealer, I would possibly pay the whole difference (cap-residual) up front with my credit card since i have %7.5 APR :) lol

    The way that i look into the EX deal is this:

    IMHO, their capitalization value above is not really true at least for residual value calculations.

    $2863 is the price below MSRP that you are getting, so your Capitalization should read = $39402

    39*$443 = $17277 + $4000 = $21277 is what goes out of your pocket in 39 months...

    If you are paying $21277, your residual value should be somewhere north of (excluding the financing costs for 16K over 39 months) = $18125 (+ the financing cost that you will incur)...

    The residual value figure that they have there for the EX is pretty off...

    Either the residual value is %46 ($18125) and you are getting %0 percent, or the residual is %50 ($19701) and you are paying $1576 for financing $16K over 39 months.Or somewhere in between.

    BTW, at the end, both does not seem so bad to me. So the numbers may be off, but the deal you are getting does not seem too bad . since %50 seems to be the residual that other individuals have posted, I would probably go with this. Any additional discounts that you can get on the price will lower your financing costs.

    Again, if they show this figures to me, I'd say, OK, I am paying up front all the cap-residual and save myself a good $10K, lol.

    But what do i know?
    ;)

    Cap 34959
    resid 27893


    You aren't financing $7000... you are financing the average of $34959 and $27893... Or... about $30,400...

    Monthly depreciation + monthly finance charges = pre-tax lease payment

    Even if you pay the entire depreciaton up front, you would still have monthly finance charges on the residual amount ($27893).

    A lease is a lot like a mortgage loan... with an option to turn it in for the balance owed at the end of the lease..
