    Yes I do, carbonr. Volkswagen Credit's buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 24-month lease of a 2013 Golf R with 15,000 miles per year are .00142 and 60% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

    Hi gambrill. Through July 8th, Volkswagen Credit's buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 39-month lease of a 2013 GTI Driver's Edition or Wolfsburg with 15,000 miles per year are .00139 and 50%.

    The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2013 Golf R are .00142 and 52%.

    the last money factor posted helped me get an idea of what rate vw is offering right now. But, I am not sure what the % of residual price means. Is it % of MSRP or sale price?

    Also, is there a formula for calculating miles on a lease? Current manufacturer lease deals are 12k/yr deals. I need a 15k deal. Any way to take the advertised special and apply it to more miles?

    Thanks.

    Hi pizzakid13. Lease payments are made up of two main parts, the interest portion and the depreciation portion. Vehicles' residual values are used to calculate how much depreciation lessees have to pay. They are based upon a percentage of vehicles' full MSRPs, including the destination charge and the MSRPs of any options that can be residualized.

    All of manufacturers' published residual values are usually based on leases with 15,000 miles per year. The residual values for leases with 12,000 miles per year are usually 2% higher, through some banks are an exception to this.

    It sounds as though you might be somewhat new to leasing. If so, you definitely should check out the following informative articles on the subject that are available here at Edmunds.com: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.

    Thanks. Actually, this will be my 3rd. The first was a while ago though. I just purchased my '10 GTI and plan to sell since the buyout is much lower than retail. So I figure I can at least make up the taxes paid over 3 years.

    So, if I understand correctly, I can add two percent to the manufacturers advertised 12k leases to get a price for a 15k?

    Hello Sirs and Madams,

    I am planning to lease GTI 2013 (15,000miles/yr; 36months; 2door automatic with Conv./Sunroof Pack) and I have few inquiries. Please Help!

    1) What is the Residual% as of August 2013? (What dealer would use)
    2) What is the Money Factor as of August 2013? (What dealer would use)
    3) From Calculating my own lease guide(http://www.edmunds.com/car-leasing/calculate-your-own-lease-payment.html) the example is using .00375 as a money factor and states it's common rate however, on other posts, gti was around .00036. Am I using the wrong number here?
    4) PZEV or not, the price is the same. If I can choose, should I go with PZEV?
    5) I did a credit check with one of the VW dealer, can other VW dealer view the results?
    6) Is this a bad time to lease GTI as redesigned 2015 will be coming out in spring 2015?

    Thank you very much!!

    so that extra zero looks like the rate is real low. am i computing that correctly?
  • kyfdxkyfdx Moderator Posts: 236,590
    Yeah... that's really low.. About $5-$6 per month for the finance charge portion of the lease..

    Almost free money... ;-)

    Yes. I am torn on which way to go. The 0% financing is nice but won't apply if using other discounts like truecar price quotes. So i would be looking at maybe 2% on a purchase. Once I have a price I like, I can compare the two.
  • kyfdxkyfdx Moderator Posts: 236,590
    At those prices, I would lease..

    is 26,300 on a '13 Drivers edition with manual.

    i was told that the leasing price would be 1500 higher since the truecar discounts are for purchases only. not that i would accept that, but its what they said so far.

    there's a 1500 reduction from factory to dealer.

    I leased a 2013 driver's edition GTI in automatic transmission.....no monster mats...pretty much standard everything..leather, sunroof, NAV system, etc...terms were 36 months, 12K miles annually...total out of pocket including my first month's payment and tax & tag was $1,000...monthly payment is $339 plus tax. Is this a good deal. Again, it's a 2013 and not a 2014 (which means all service is covered for a full 3 years rather than only 2 years on the 2014 model car)

    Hey bondguy1, any chance you can direct me to your salesman? I'm in SoFla as well and on the hunt for a GTI. I'd appreciate the help man!
  • bondguy1bondguy1 Member Posts: 231
    yes...I got it from Gunther in Coconut Creek and I dealt with a guy named Sammy ( I think he spells it Sami)...tell him Dean sent you and I think if it's a referral I get a referral fee...or, maybe he will take it off the price of your car. Nice guy and easy to deal with...good luck (and BTW, the 2013's are a MUCH better deal)
