Which state? There are two sets of numbers for April from Kia.

sixpack4 · April 2014

I'm looking for the current lease numbers for SX w/ Prem + Tech and SX Turbo w/ Prem + Tech in Florida. 36 mos 12k.

SX - .00109 and 58%

SX Turbo - .00117 and 59%

$2000 lease cash available for both.

sixpack4 · April 2014

Thanks for the quick reply! You guys are great!

sixpack4 · April 2014

To follow up, I'm putting together a deal to close before COB Wednesday. I've moved up to the SXL however. I'm getting quotes from dealers with the following numbers in FL. Do these appear correct for a 3 year 15k lease.

MF: 0.00054
Res Value: 54%

The Kia Motor Finance numbers I have show .00057 MF and residual of 52%. Could the dealer be using a 3rd party finance company?

Current MF and residual on 2014 Optima LX (12k miles/yr)? Northeast (NY/NJ) if that matters...

Thanks as always, you guys are great

Appreciate the compliment, but we don't yet have the May numbers from Kia. Perhaps in a few days...

kazuya_mishima · May 2014

Florida EX 12k miles per year 36 and 48 month lease numbers please.

We're still waiting for the May numbers ... sorry.

kazuya_mishima · May 2014

Hey guys thanks for answering all the questions. Don't want to be annoying but just wondering if the numbers are in yet, and most importantly if the 2000 cash is still on.

kyfdx · May 2014

@kazuya_mishima said:

.00073 MF and 56% residual

.00115 MF and 47% residual.

$2000 lease cash on either term.

kazuya_mishima · May 2014

Thank you so much. That 2000 cash just sounds like too good of a deal to pass up. I am struggling between a Sonata, Mazda 6, and the Optima. What I am seeing going for each is:

Sonata: Cheapest option for a turbo.
Mazda6: Cheapest option for luxury (leather seats and screen size)
Optima: Maybe I am not sure how leasing works but the optima with that 2000 cash on lease just seems like it will be the cheapest option out of the 3 if all else is equal. So in short optima is price.

kazuya_mishima · May 2014

Also what about same terms for a SX with and without turbo.

36mo, 12K/yr

.00052 MF and 55% residual for SX

.00080 MF and 57% residual for SX Turbo

48mo, 12K/yr

.00118 MF and 47% residual for SX

.00123 MF and 48% residual for SX Turbo

Kazuya....I am actually trying to decide between the same three cars, but I'm going to the dealerships this weekend to get all of the numbers. Can you let me know what prices you were given just so I have an idea what to expect? And if you've already decided, what car did you go with?

Thanks
Kristin

kris113 · May 2014

Can anyone give me a rough idea of what I can expect to pay on a lease for the Optima EX if the MSRP is $24,950 and I will only need 12,000 miles/year? I don't plan on putting any money down for the car except for paying tax/title/license upfront and I am in NJ if that helps. Thanks!

Again, we'll need to know the lease term and the expected selling price before we can calculate a payment.

Sorry...I don't have a selling price yet as I am going to the dealer this weekend but the term will be for 36 months.

Are the May numbers posted above for the 2014 SX (non turbo) also accurate for Ohio:

.00052 and 55% - 3 yrs/12k per year
$2,000 lease rebate

Thanks again for the help!

Numbers from Kia are national.

mobilerover · June 2014

Considering an Optima SXL can you share MF & residual for a 2 & 3 year lease w/ 12k per year? Also, are there any incentive to move the 2014 models as the 2015's are starting to roll in?

Thank.

Are you in NJ, CT or NY? There are two sets of numbers from Kia this month.

2014 vs 2015 - usually, the residual value is lower on the 2014's, but the MF is often reduced to compensate.

mobilerover · June 2014

Southern California actually.

Kia does not support 24 month leases.

2015 - .00077 and 57% for 36/12. $750 lease cash.

2014 - .00038 and 53%. $2000 lease cash.

mobilerover · June 2014

Hey, this is great info. Now to compare it to the CC.

Thanks @Michaell.
