    Hey Jarvis. VW Credit's November buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2012 Beetle Turbo with 15,000 miles per year are .00015 and 49% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

    Volkswagen is currently providing a $250 cash incentive on leases of this car. It's waiving the first month's payment as well.

    Hi Car_Man,

    Can you please post the current residual and money factor for a 36-month lease on a 2013 Beetle Convertible 2.5L with 10,000 miles per year? (I see the numbers above but am not sure how they relate to a lower mileage lease.)

    Thanks in advance!

    Any chance you've got the residual and money factor for a 36 month/10K lease on a 2013 Beetle coupe? (Considering 2.5L and Turbo)

    Much appreciated!

    Ha great username, mikeylikesvw. Here you go.

    VW is providing a $500 cash incentive on leases of the 2.5L and $750 on leases of the Turbo.

    Hey all,

    I'm looking at purchasing/leasing a 2013 Beetle Convertible TDI with tech, sound, and nav this month. Does anyone have info on VW financing offers for the month of April and/or the money factor and residual value for a 36-month and/or 48-month 12,000-miles/year lease. I might be willing to flip from a TDI to a 2.0 turbo if there are better specials on it during the month of April. Thanks in advance.

    Sure saabguy914. VW Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 Beetle Convertible 2.0T with 10,000 miles per year are .00007 and 57% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

    Volkswagen is providing a $250 cash incentive on leases of this car in March.

    HA. HI beetleyp. You certainly are a true Beetle fan. Volkswagen is scheduled to introduce its new April incentives programs on Tuesday April 2nd. Please check back with me later in the week with a quick reminder and I'll fill you in on what I've been able to find out about the new April programs.

    Talk to you soon.

    Thanks, Car_Man.

    Hey - I just saw your post on the March #s for the 2.0T Convertible for a 10,000-mile/year lease listing money factor at .00007 (four zeros) and 57% residual. I'm actually tempted to call my dealer right now. Does the money factor work out to approximately 0.168% APR or is that 16.8% APR (.0007 x 2400)? That seems to be the lowest that it's been in months. Do you know what the March numbers are/were for the TDI Convertible? I'd prefer 12,000-miles/year, but 10,000 would be fine if the $ is that low.
    I'll definitely check back with you later this week for April's numbers...

    Thanks,

    -BeetleyP

    Hi there,

    Just a reminder for Car_Man: I'm looking to leasing either the 2013 Beetle Convertible TDI or the 2013 Beetle Convertible 2.0 Turbo (depending on lease rates), so I'd love to know the Top Tier (Tier 1) rates for Money Factor and Residual on VW-Factory Financing.

    Thanks in advanced,

    Hi Car_Man. Hoping to lease or buy a new Beetle TDI Convertible this weekend. Any chance you've got the leasing Money Factor and Residuals for Top Tier Credit on a 12,000 mile/year lease. I'm also interested in the numbers for the 2.0L Gas Turbo because if they're as low as last month, it might be cheaper in the long run to get the gas turbo even though the car price is higher.

    For the TDI 10,000 mile lease - my dealer has stated a 61% residual and .00148 money factor (3.5% equivalent) for top tier leasing. The residual looks great, but the money factor looks like second or third tier.
    For the 2.0L Gas Turbo on a 10,000 mile/year lease - my dealer is still quoting last month's numbers of 57% residual and .00007 money factor (.168% equivalent) for Top Tier credit.
    It seems like either VW or the dealer is pushing the Turbo heavier than any other model right now.

    Thanks in advance for any info or opinion you might share.

  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi BeetleyP. A money factor of .00007 is equivalent to an interest rate of around 0.168%. That's about as close to zero precent interest as you're going to get on a lease.

    The money factors on TDI models aren't nearly as attractive as they are on normal gas models. Volkswagen Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 Beetle TDI Convertible with 12,000 miles per year are .00148 and 60% for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

    The residual value for a lease with 10,000 miles per year would be 1% higher.

    What are the residual/MF for the 2013 beetles? They're on clearance, and the #s look pretty good.
