MSRP for 25i is $33,775 and for 3.6 is $36,040 price includes destination fee
Pre-tax payment is $353.24/mo for the 3.6 and $328.57/mo for the 2.5.

So , is this saying 328.57 pretax on a 2.5 limited that was 33,775 MSRP? THANKS

Hi, Can someone please help. Thanks in advance.

We are looking at a 2015 Outback 2.5i Limited with Nav,, Moon Roof, and Pushstart

The msrp $33,618 and they are selling it for $31,759 including all taxes, titles, tags, and processing. We are putting nothing down.

We are getting 36 months with 15,000 miles a year.

We live in Virginia Beach, VA

They are quoting us a residual value of 57%

Total price per month for the lease is $460.00

This seems high and I'm not sure of the money factor.

Any thoughts and is this a good deal? If not, how much should we ask for in negotiations.

The base money factor should be .00050. Using that MF, I get a payment of $375/mo. Does the $31,759 include everything? Or, is that the selling price and tax, etc is on top of that?

beachguyngal · September 2014

This includes everything out the door with nothing down.

What do you believe is a good payment for this car and how much lower can we negotiate.

The tax included is 4.05%.

Thank you so much.

Yes, that's what I've calculated. Pretty good deal for a $34K car.

We would need to know the MSRP as well in order to model a payment.

With your MSRP and selling price, I get a pre-tax payment of $325.21/mo for 36 months.

Residual Rates
Are there typically different residual rates on different Trims (ie: Premium vs Limited)?

Yes... slightly different, but not always.

Does anyone know if you can negotiate the $279/month 2015 base outback lease? I don't like to put money down on a lease. Just curious if anyone has any experience.

The national programs are just OK; with a bit of negotiation, you should be able to do better.

Work to get the lowest selling price.

What lease terms are you looking for?

Hi guys,
I have a cash quote for a '15 2.5i Outback Ltd with nav/eyesight/remote start at 30,866 plus taxes, no dealer fee (MSRP 34,908 / Invoice 32,186).

Can't decide whether to lease, but if I did can you please tell me what MF/Residual/payment I should be targeting (minus CO sales tax) for 36 mos, 0 down, 15k & 18k?

Thank you!

.00050 MF and 57% residual for 36mo, 15K/yr.

At your quote, it's $330/mo.+tax.

Hi, I am in Illinois, and I am looking at an Outback Lim & Prem, with the Moonroof package, no Eyesight. Leasing at 36mo/12K yr, $1000 down. What are you getting on pre-tax monthly payments for;

Lim;
MSRP - 33040
Price - 30786

Prem;
MSRP - 29540
Price - 27657

Thanks in advance.

Limited - .00050 and 59%. Pre-tax payment of $306.67.

Premium - .00050 and 60%. Pre-tax payment of $329.81.

Note that in Illinois you are required to pay sales tax on the entire selling price of the car - this will substantially increase your monthly payment.

That is changing as of 1/1/15 - at that time, you will only pay tax on the monthly payment.

mikem856 · October 2014

What! The tax law is changing on Jan 1? Thank GOD! It's been brutal trying to find a reasonable lease. So we will only be taxed on the depreciation value??

Depreciation and rent charge are subject to tax.

Illinois has historically been one of the most expensive states in which to lease. Maryland, Texas and Georgia also tax the entire transaction price.

mikem856 · October 2014

You literally just saved me $2000+ dollars. I had no idea that law had changed. I just looked it up. Well I guess I'm waiting until Jan. 1. Thank you so, so much Michaell. You just made my day!

My guess is that dealers in IL will offer some sort of tax incentive these last 8-9 weeks to continue to drive new leases before the law changes.

Otherwise, there will be a lot of crickets chirping.

mikem856 · October 2014

So I am guessing that I would plug the cap cost, residual and MF into the calculator. Then take the monthly payment and multiply by 36 to get my deprec. + rent cost. Then multiply that by our tax rate, to get the final tax number for the lease?

You also need the MSRP, upon which the residual is based. Nothing more complicated than 4th or 5th grade math if you are building your own calculator.

Base payment (depreciation + rent charge) is multiplied by the tax rate to get the final payment.

Hi, I am not sure if this is a decent deal or not. 2.5i limited nav eyesight moonroof sales price is $31983. With $3500 down I am being quoted $357/mo out the door for 36mo/12k. Residual is 59%. I was told that the mf was .001. Not sure if that makes sense. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am in TN. THank you.

The residual is correct, but the base money factor is .00050, so if they are using .00100, it is marked up for extra profit.

With the MSRP, we can calculate an approximate payment.

Thank you for the reply. The msrp is 34508. The dealer is also telling me that there is a cap reduction cost of $445. What is that and is it normal?

thank you

Cap cost reduction is down payment. It's normal but we don't recommend it.

I am getting a pre-tax payment of $349.04 with your numbers and the base MF of .00050

Any word on changes to MF and residuals for November? Interested in 2.5i Premium. Thanks.

Looking at leasing a 2015 Outback 2.5i Limited w/sticker price of $33,713 and selling price of $31,220. Can you please tell me what the pre-tax lease payment would be for Texas? Also, please provide the MF and residual if possible.

Thanks!

55% and .00030 for 36 months, 15K miles per year.

Pre-tax doesn't mean much in Texas, as the entire purchase price of $31,230 is subject to sales tax, even for a lease. This will make your payment much higher than in states where only the payment is taxed.

Thanks for the quick response. Does the MF and/or residual change for a 10k mile lease?

paulntx · November 2014

Sorry, that would be for a 36 mo lease. Thanks!

paulntx · November 2014

Final question! Is the RV based off the MSRP, the negotiated selling price or the selling price plus taxes/fees?

Thanks again.

Add 3% to the residual to go from 15K/yr to 10K/yr

55% residual is correct, but the base MF is .00030 ... your dealer seems to be marking it up for a bit of extra profit.

Is the $34,637 the MSRP or the selling price? We'd need to know both in order to model a payment for you.
