    Hi:

    I don't think this is a great deal by any means, but could you give me a ballpark on what may be reasonable.

    2009 gx470
    Black with gray interior
    nav/levinson
    3rd seat/air
    tow prep, spoiler, tow hitch, mats, preferred access pkg, exhaust tip
    msrp $53663 ( INCLUDING dest charge of $825)
    invoice right about $47,000
    purchase price $49,000

    36 mo
    12,000 miles/year
    mf .00279
    residual $25,221
    payment $990/month

    thanks

    with the gx 460 coming at the end of the year, the 470's should have an incentive on the way. i was quoted the same price on my lease. gonna wait and see if they have a similar year end sale like they did last august...then pull the trigger
  • etortetort Member Posts: 3
    Thanks for your reply
    I don't have the option of waiting.
    I was able to negotiate the following.

    Same car ( nav/levinson, ac third row, a few other goodies)
    invoice = 47,010 (incl dest charge)
    purchase price = 47,010
    doc fee = 150
    36 months
    12,000 mi per year
    mf = .00265

    $925/month
    $925 due at signing ( first month payment)

    Salesman said he will take a "tax credit" from the manufacturer in order to make money on the deal so he could sell at invoice.

    Good deal or not?

    Unfortunately, I do not believe that Lexus is currently providing any cash incentives on this truck.

    Great Info. I'm looking to get into a 39-48 Month on the GX 460 or 470. I'm ok with 12k Miles but want the Navi and the DVD. I'm thinking I should be able to get this done in the mid sixes monthly with nothing or nearly nothing out of pocket....any thoughts?
  • calaelcalael Member Posts: 6
    Based on my research via the Lexus website....the mid sixes are not possible unless you are making a downpayment. You might want to check out the website because the GX 460 with the features you mentioned runs about 60k. However; leasing is also an option on a used GX 470 too, if it's certified. Hope this helps!
  • wdyl9395wdyl9395 Member Posts: 2
    I kind of figured and thanks for the info. I think I'm going to get the GX 460 my question is do you think I am better off waiting till the summer or is there some reason to do it sooner rather than later
  • calaelcalael Member Posts: 6
    My guess would be later because there will probably be more negotiating room once the supply and demand decreases. Right now they are pretty much being built to order and the dealers do not have any in stock and aren't coming off of the sticker price much at all. Good luck!!

    As you suspected the money factor that you were quoted is a little on the high side. Try to get the dealer to use the .00210 factor to calculate your vehicle's payment.

    Carman,

    When negotiating a lease, can the price per mile over the alloted mileage be negotiated?
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi carinatl. Unfortunately, I don't believe that banks will negotiate the excess mileage charge on leased vehicles. Having said that, most banks will provide lessees with a discount for excess miles over 15,000 purchased at lease signing over what it would have cost them in excess mileage penalties at lease-end.

    Looks like the "December to Remember" promotion is out. Can you get the MF and residual for the 2011 GX460 base with 10K and 12K per year? And will these numbers be the same for November and December? Also, what are the actual promotion discounts?

    Having trouble right now coming up with the same numbers the dealer did. Wanted to know if the money factor and residual values I have are correct for this month.

Wondering if those sound right or if I should haggle them down.

    It certainly is Bluestreaking. Lexus Financial Services' December to Remember buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 GX460 with 12,000 miles per year are .00160 and 54%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Tier 1+" credit tier.

    The discount that you are able to negotiate on this truck is between you and the dealer. The only cash that Lexus is providing on it is $1,000 to current owners of select luxury competitors.

    Hello and thank you for having this forum! I have a couple questions.
    1. What is the money factor and residual on a 12k and 10K lease on 36, 42, and 48 months.
    2. What is the average discount you have seen on a Gx460 non premium with an MSRP of 58,500?
    3. What is your stance on acquisition fees and putting money down on a lease?
    Lastly, I will be asking a similar question in the Land Rover Lr4 forum so I apologize for my redundancy!

    Thanks so much.

    You're welcome daxt24.

    Lexus Financial Services' March buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a base 2011 GX460 with 12,000 miles per year are .00175 and 53%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top aka "Tier 1+" credit tier.

    The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are .00175 and 50%.

    This truck's 48 month numbers are .00175 and 44%.

    If you were to lease with only 10,000 miles per year its residual values will be 1% higher.

    Everyone who leases through LFS has to pay a $700 acquisition fee. You can either pay it at signing or roll it into your vehicle's capitalized cost to bake it into your monthly payment.

    I always advise consumers not to make any sort of capitalized cost reduction 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.

    Hey Car_Man,

    Need your advice. Looking to purchase a new GX 460 premium and got what seemed to be some pretty crazy numbers from my dealer. How much discounting ability does this dealer have? What type of money factor should I make sure they use when calculating my lease? How much should I expect to pay will 5k down?

    Best,

    Landerman
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi Landerman. A base 2011 GX 460 has a spread of around $5,800 between its full MSRP and dealer invoice price. You can look up the pricing data for the exact model that you want over in the GX 460 Pricing Page here at Edmunds.com.

    Lexus Financial Services' current buy rate lease money factor for the 2011 GX 460 is .00185 for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

    I would be happy to work up a payment on the exact GX that you are interested in for you if you provide me with its full MSRP and approximate selling price, or at least its MSRP and invoice price.

    Thanks Car Man. One more question...
    If I wait a bit for a 2012, will the residual be higher? Seems logical to me since 3 years from now a 12 model will be worth more than an 11 model all else equal...
    If so, and guess of the difference? Historically what is the difference when the new model year comes out?

    Thanks very much for the info.
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    You're welcome otoman. Yes the residual value for the 2012 model will likely be a couple of points higher when it is introduced. All things being equal, that would make a '12 cheaper to lease than an '11. Of course, all things are not necessarily equal. Dealers may be willing to discount a leftover 2011 model more than they would a new 2012.

    Car_man,

    After only owning pre-owned cars, I am looking at leasing my first car. I am looking at a GX460. My dealer has two 2011 models left on the lot and I am curious what the money factor and residuals are compared to the 2012. Of course I am thinking I can get a better deal on the 2011, but don't know if the residual and/or money factor will negate the savings.

    Mileage is 12,000/year and I currently own two other Lexus. Looking forward to see what the numbers say before I go negotiate with them!
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi txmtgbnkr. I don't believe that Lexus is providing lease support on the 2011 GX 460 right now. As a result, if you were to lease one through Lexus Financial Services at this time you would have to use its standard lease money factors. Its current buy rate standard money factor is .00190 for Tier 1+ customers.

    The residual value for a 36-month lease of a base '11 GX 460 with 12,000 miles per year is 48%.

    There is a $1,000 dealer cash incentive on this truck right now that can be used on leases.
