I would be more than happy to help you out, keeferb. If you were to lease a 2005 Nissan Altima 2.5S through Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp. this month for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00193 and 60%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease would be .00191 and 59%. The $1,000 consumer cash that Nissan is providing on this car can not be used in conjunction with NMAC's lease program.
No problem, bargainhunter. Here is the information that you are looking for. If you were to lease a 2004 Infiniti FX35 AWD through Infiniti Financial Services this month for 39 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00179 and 54%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 42 month lease should be .00179 and 52%. I would be more than happy to calculate a sample lease payment for you on the exact model that you are interested in, but in order for me to do so, I need you to provide me with its full MSRP and selling price.
If you feel as though you should be able to get a lower monthly payment on this model than the one that you were quoted by the dealer that you are currently working with you have two options. You can haggle with them some more to see if you can get them to give you a better deal or you can comparison shop with a few other Infiniti dealers.
Sorry about that, 307web. When there is a ton of questions in this discussion, like there has been lately, occasionally a post or two will fall through the cracks. Here are the sample lease payments that you are looking for. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2004 Jaguar X-Type 2.5 with an MSRP of $34,490 and selling price of $27,028 through Jaguar Credit this month for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment should be right around $488. If you were to do an otherwise identical lease of an '04 X-Type 3.0 with an MSRP of $39,765 and a selling price of $32,275, its payment would be around $359. As you can see, something does not seem right here. I have a feeling that the dealer cash that you used to arrive at the selling price for the 3.0 can not be used in conjunction with Jaguar Credit's lease program. Backing out the $5,000 dealer cash on the 3.0, I come up with a payment of $499.
Hey 307web. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2004 Lexus ES330 with navigation (MSRP: $37,230 / selling price: $33,268) through Lexus Financial Services for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year this month, your zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment will be right around $447. I do not believe that Lexus is providing support on 2 year leases of this car. If this is indeed the case, it does not make much sense to lease one for that long.
Hi Car_Man . Please dont forget my question !! I am ready to deal and cant wait. Seriously if yopu get time id love to know the numbers and your thoughts.
Hi hartt. Let's take a look at the lease programs that you are interested in. If you were to lease a 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer LS 4WD through GMAC this month for 3 years with 12,000 miles per, its base lease rate and residual value should be 2.5% and 55%, respectively. As you can see, GMAC publishes lease rates instead of lease money factors for vehicles. You can convert the aforementioned rate into an approximate money factor by multiplying it by 2400.
Toyota's lease program varies by region. I do not believe that it has any sort of lease support on the 2004 4Runner in any of its regions though. If this is the case and you were to lease one through Toyota Financial Services, you would have to use its standard lease program. I haven't seen its standard lease program recently so I can not help you out there.
Lastly, if you were to lease a 2004 Dodge Durango SLT 4WD through Chrysler Financial this month for 3 years with 12,000 miles per, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00141 and 51%, respectively. Dodge is providing $3,500 lease cash plus $1,000 Chrysler Financial Bonus Cash on the '04 Durango in July for a total of $4,500 that you can use to negotiate a more attractive capitalized cost.
I haven't forgotten about you, tampabay. I answer any questions that community members have in the order that I receive them. Here is a sample lease payment on the vehicle that you are interested in. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2004 Infiniti FX35 AWD with an MSRP of $44,240 and a selling price of $40,500 through Infiniti Financial Services this month for 36 months with 10,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment should be right around $541. The payment for an otherwise identical 39 month lease should be around $521. If you end up trading your current vehicle in, you definitely should not use the proceeds from it as a down payment on this lease. It is never a good idea to put money down when leasing.
You're welcome again, pipo. I am not sure what the current 39 month residual value is for this model, but the 42 month residual value is definitely not the same as the 36 month resid. Its 42 month, 10,000 miles per residual is 52%. This program is scheduled to run through the end of August and will probably do so without any changes, but BMW does reserve the right to change it at any time.
thanks very much Car-man. I hope you didnt think i was being pushy. I saw you say that sometimes questions fall through the crack and i thought you may ,have confused me with the other guy asking about infinits. Thanks very much for the excellent info. that looks a pretty cheap deal to me.
Ah ha. This deal makes much more sense now, av8rmilt. Let' try this calculation again. According to the numbers that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2005 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE with an MSRP of $23,930 and a selling price of $22,627 ($500 over invoice, your price may vary) through NMAC this month for 36 months with 12,000 miles per, its zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment should be right around $308. The payments for otherwise identical 39 and 48 month leases should be around $295 and $286. The $1,000 customer cash that Nissan is providing on the '05 Altima in July can not be used in conjunction with its special lease program.
You're very welcome, denisempmp. Even with the cracked bumper, you will probably be able to get the most money for your current vehicle by selling it privately. Consumers usually get a lot more money for vehicles that have been cleaned up nicely before they were put on sale. As a wise man once said, the hand purchases what the eye sees...or something like that. People who see a beat up car often assume that it wasn't taken care of and it did not have maintenance performed on it in a timely manner.
As far as the Honda Accord that you are looking at goes, it appears as though the selling price that you were quoted is actually higher than its full MSRP. Dealers are providing significant discounts on Accords right now and you definitely should not pay anywhere near full MSRP for one.
Consumers can always lease any vehicle that they want without making any sort of down payment. In fact, it is in your best interest not to make any sort of capitalized cost reduction when leasing. Many manufacturers advertise leases with down payments because it makes their monthly payment look more attractive. People often just look at the monthly payment that is being advertised and do not pay attention to the other aspects of the lease. If you're not looking at the down payment, $199 per month looks a lot better than $230 per month.
This is a great time to lease an '04 Accord Coupe. Not only is Honda running a special lease program on Accords in July, but it also has $500 dealer cash on '04 Accord Coupe 4-cylinder and $1,000 on '04 Accord Coupe 6-cylinder models that will help you to negotiate a more attractive selling price. They just advertise a sample lease payment on the Accord Sedan because sedans are much more popular than coupes are.
I would like to lease an XC90 2.5T FWD w/premium, versatility, and metallic paint. I saw a post for someone who was able to purchase this exact car for $35,500. Is there any chance I can get this good of a deal if I choose to lease?
I was offered a 48 mo. lease at a dealership with a MF of .00153 and residual value of 47% w/12,000 miles/yr. Is this a good deal? I am seeing 36 mo leases quoted in the forums at .00185-.00187 with resid of 55%. Is this what I should be looking to negotiate if I choose a shorter lease? (I have excellent credit).
Is the residual value calculated based on the MSRP, the sale price before rebates/incentives or the sale price after incentives?
Why do the lease calculators at Edmunds, lease guide and bank rate all give me different numbers? Which is most accurate?
Will all lessors outside of VFNA include acquisition and disposition fees, or can I try to negotiate this as well?
Should I work with the dealership primarily to negotiate the lease or should I get pre-approval with an online lease company. I have seen a lot of leases posted through Wells Fargo and Chase but apparently they only work through dealerships. We got pre-approved for my husband's lease 3 years ago only to be told by the dealership we couldn't use it.
If you take the $500 dealer cash off the total is $22,250. We paid $22,339. The accessory prices are retail prices from Honda's site but they do not include labor so I thought it was a fair deal. We aren't giving them any money up front and the payments are $360 including tax for 36 months/15,000 miles. They stated that they had to increase the money factor because we did not pay the security deposit. So they increased it to .00153. The residual is $13,224. Is that about right?
Hello again, I feel as though I got majorally ripped off at the dealership today- maybe I did, maybe I didn't! My car (bumper and everything) was appraised at 5500. I still owe 7600 on it. The guy gave me a 36 mon lease for an honda accord ex coupe for 530 down and 359 per month plus tax= 391.31. I thought that was ridiculous but maybe I was wrong. The MSP on the car was 22,600 and the total price of the car on the sticker was lised at 23,090. What do you think?
Here you go, Edmund. According to the latest information that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2005 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS sedan through its captive finance company for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00190 and 58%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease should be .00190 and 56%. If you were to lease this model with only 12,000 miles per year, its residual values would be 1% higher.
Hi Van. I would be more than happy to try to give you an idea of what the lease program is like on this car right now. According to the latest informaiton that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2004 BMW 325i through BMW Financial Services this month for 3 years with 15,000 miles per, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00220 and 58%, respectively. When negotiating your deal on this car, keep in mind that BMW is providing $1,200 dealer cash on it this month. This money will help you to negotiate a more attractive capitalized cost. This car's 12,000 miles per year residual value for this term is 60% and its 10,000 miles per year residual is 61%.
Greetings mtamsett. Let me begin by saying that if you choose to trade your current vehicle in rather than sell it on your own, you definitely should not use the proceeds from it as a down payment on your lease. I always advise consumers against making down payments on leases for two main reasons. The first is if your car is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered during your lease term, your insurance company pays off the bank that you were leasing it through and your down payment essentially disappears. The second main reason is that down payments on leased vehicles do nothing to reduce their lease-end purchase prices. So this car's lease-end purchase price would be exactly the same, regardless of whether you had put $8,000 down on it or had made no down payment at all.
I would be more than happy to calculate a sample lease payment on this car for you. However, in order for me to do so, I need you to provide me with its full MSRP.
Hello tierramom. Vehicles' residual values are based upon a percentage of their full MSRPs. The lease money factor and residual value that you were quoted are right in line with what I would expect them to be for this model right now. None of the lease calculators that are available on the Web are very accurate. This is because none of the calculators that I am aware of use manufacturers' actual lease programs. Instead, they use some sort of average interest rate and residual values from an independent source like ALG to provide consumers with an approximate idea of what the lease payment should look like on the model that they are considering. The best way to get an accurate lease payment for the vehicle that you are considering is to find out its full MSRP, selling price, money factor, and residual value and then calculate its payment manually using the formula that is outlined in the following article: Calculate Your Own Lease Payment. All banks that lease vehicle charge an acquisition fee. This fee has nothing to do with individual dealers and is not negotiable. The only way to get out of paying an acquisition fee at lease signing is to add it to your vehicle's capitalized cost and bake it into your lease payment. Volvo Finance's specific acquisition fee is $595 in every state but New York. I doubt that you will be able to get a better deal on your own than you will if you have a dealer arrange a lease for you. Most major independent banks that lease vehicles, like Chase and Wells Fargo do not deal directly with the general public.
Hey superbeagle. Lexus is not currently providing any sort of lease support on the 2004 RX 330. I would be more than happy to try to give you an idea of what sort of lease money factor and residual value you can expect on this "truck" right now. However, in order for me to do so, I need you to tell me how long you want to lease it for and how many miles per year you need to be able to drive it.
Anonymousposts, if you were able to get this car for only a couple hundred dollars over invoice without any sort of lease money factor mark-up other than the one that AHFC requires for the waiver of a vehicle's security deposit then you definitely did indeed get a good deal.
If you feet as though you were getting ripped off, denisempmp, why did you take delivery of your car instead of taking time to comparison shop at another Honda dealer or two? It looks to me as though you were given $2,100 less for your trade than you owed on it. Did you roll this negative equity into your lease? If so, your lease payment is much higher than it would have been if you hadn't traded your old car in. It is difficult for me to give you my opinion on this car's selling price because this is a somewhat complicated deal, but making an educated guess it appears as though you got your Accord for around $1,000 over invoice after taking Honda's dealer cash and your negative equity into account. This is a decent price, but you may have been able to get them down to around $500 over. I just worked up a sample 3 year, 12,000 miles per lease payment on this car using the prices that you mentioned in your post and came up with a zero down, pre-tax monthly payment of around $341. This payment would be higher if you were to have your security deposit waived or if your mileage allowance was 15,000 miles per year.
Thanks for the additional info, superbeagle. According to the latest information that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2004 Lexus RX 330 2WD without navigation or the rear entertainment system through Lexus Financial Services this month for 3 years with 12,000 miles per, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00200 and 54%, respectively.
I just leased a 2004 BMW 325i for 3 years and the buy out price is about $18,000. The same car at 3 years old with approximately 30,000 miles, are advertised online for $25,000-30,000 used. I don't know what the lease buy out price is for one of these advertised 2001's, but if it is anything like mine, there is a big gap between buy out price and market value at lease end. Is my situation unique or is this how lease buy outs typically work? Thanks.
I am looking at leasing an AWD FX35 for 24 or 36 months w/ 12,000 miles per year. Would you please provide the money factor and residual value for both lease terms, as well as approximate payments. MSRP $44,240 Capitalized cost 41,000
Hi Car_Man. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. I'm a little bit confused about something you told a previous poster. You mentioned that the $1,000 customer cash could not be used with the "special lease program" for the Nissan Altima. It was my understanding that this incentive could not be combined with the traditional financing (1.9% APR loan for 60 months) support, but I was surprised to hear you mention that it couldn't be combined with the lease program (I didn't see any "special" program for the lease). Can you help clarify, please?
Hi, I plan to lease A 2004 Honda Pilot ex w/leather. I was told with $4000.00 down, 16k miles per year, plus $67.00. I would pay 353.00 per month, with tax it would be $377.84. the 36th month would be 18,516.00 balloon payment, because I am planning on keeping it. I was told that if I pay the tax monthly, I would save on tax at the end. I would love to hear advice from those experienced about what they think!!Thank you very much!!LILY
Mtamsett, a down payment would indeed lower this car's monthly lease payments, but as I said before there are a number of good reasons not to put any money down when leasing. Thanks for posting the MSRP for me. So you are interested in a 2004 Mercedes-Benz C320 Sedan that has a full MSRP of $42,690 and a selling price of $41,000. You may not be aware that Mercedes-Benz is currently providing $3,000 dealer cash on this car. This means that the dealer that you are working with could sell it for you for three grand below its MSRP and still make full gross, which is probably a little over $2,500. I personally feel as though you should be able to negotiate a more attractive selling price on this car without too much difficulty.
Here is the sample lease payment that you are interested in. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2004 Mercedes-Benz C320 Sedan with an MSRP of $42,690 and a selling price of $41,000 through Mercedes-Benz Credit Corp. this month for 3 years with 15,000 miles per, its zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment should be right around $727.
Hi mdf. The purchase option prices of leased vehicles are calculated using the residual values that have been published by the bank that you are leasing it through. These values try to forecast the actual value of your vehicle at the end of your lease, not the price that dealers will try to sell your car for if it was on their lots. The prices that you have seen advertised are negotiable. The cars in the ads will probably actually sell for less money and the dealers that are selling them will make a nice profit on them. This will account for much of the difference between your car's residual and what similar vehicles are selling for today. Also, you stated that the vehicles in the ads had 30,000 miles on them. I don't know what sort of mileage allowance your lease has, but if you are leasing with 12,000 or 15,000 miles per year your car's residual value is based upon the assumption that it will have 36,000 or 45,000 miles on it at the end of your lease.
Hello msrudner. Excellent post. It contained all of the info that I need to help you out. According to the latest information that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2004 Infiniti FX35 AWD through Infiniti Financial Services this month for 2 years with 12,000 miles per, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00179 and 66%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 3 year lease should be .00177 and 56%. Using these numbers, an MSRP of $44,240 and a capitalized cost of $41,000, I estimate that your zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payments for this car would be $618 for 2 years and $568 for 3 years.
You're welcome in advance , janamax. Nissan's normal customer cash incentives can never be used in conjunction with NMAC leases. However, it does from time to time provide special lease cash on certain models that can be used to reduce the capitalized cost of leased vehicles. The Altima does not have any lease cash available on it at this time.
I am considering leasing a G35 sedan for 39 months w/ 15,000 miles per year. Would you please provide the money factor and residual value for the July program.
I was afraid you would say that... The dealer I am working with seems pretty desperate. Do you think it's possible to pay a little over invoice on this car?
Also, I noticed there is a $1,500 dealer cash incentive on the Volkswagen Jetta. Is that money that I can use to negotiate price on the Jetta?
Hi Car_Man. One other question: if the dealer I am working with has to order a car from another lot, how much does that decrease my negotiation ability? Also, if I leased through a different organization than NMAC, could I still get the $1,000 customer cash?
I have a friend who is looking for a Honda Pilot EXL-Nav. Can you please provide the July base residual and MF for a term of 36 and 39 months, with 12K/year miles. Also, is there currently any lease cash (or factory to dealer incentives that we would not know about)on this vehicle?
Another lease is almost up, and I need your valuable information again. Could you please look up the current 15K mile lease numbers for both the 6 & 8 cylinder SRX's? Also, are there any extra incentives available in CO?
Thanks for the info Car_man. I see that Chevy is offering a pretty good rebate on the trailblazer. Can I use that rebate toward lowering the cap cost if I'm going to lease?
Thanks Car Man. My lease is 10,000 miles per year so I was trying to make a valid comparison. It sounds like there is a hefty profit for the dealer in resale of a leased car. Do you know of a place to find out the buyout price for various cars that have leases that are near expiration? Are typical dealer leases assignable by the lessee at any time without dealer/leasing company consent so I could take assignment of a friend's lease that is at expiration and pay for the lease buyout myself? Thanks again.
Hi LILY. Let me begin by saying that I always advise consumers against making down payments on leased vehicles. I do so for two main reasons. The first is if your leased vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered during your lease term, your insurance company pays off the bank that you were leasing it through and and your down payment essentially disappears. The second main reason is that down payments on leased vehicles do nothing to reduce their lease-end purchase prices. So the lease-end purchase price for the Pilot that you are considering would be exactly the same regardless of whether you had put $4,000 or had put no money down at all. I would be more than happy to calculate a sample lease payment for you on the Honda Pilot that you are considering. However, in order for me to do so, I need little additional information first. What are this truck's full MSRP and selling price? This is important info for you as a consumer to know anyhow because the selling prices of leased vehicles are negotiable. Without knowing this vehicle's selling price, its difficult for you to tell what sort of deal you are getting.
I would be more than happy to, al330ci. According to the latest information that I have seen, if you were to lease a 2004 Infiniti G35 Sedan 2WD through Infiniti Financial Services this month for 39 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00153 and 60%, respectively.
Sorry for the bad news, janamax. I definitely think that you can get an '04 Altima for slightly over invoice if you shop around a little bit. The $1,500 dealer cash on the '04 Volkswagen Jetta that you mentioned is not compatible with its lease program either. However, VW is providing $1,000 dealer cash on '04 Passat 1.8T GLS Sedans that can be used on VW Credit leases.
Janamax, dealers generally prefer to sell vehicles out of their own inventory and are willing to provide the best deals to do so. They have to pay floorplan interest on their own inventory so they like to move their vehicles as quickly as possible. Furthermore, there are expenses associated with swapping vehicles with another dealer, like the potential loss of holdback and the cost of transporting the vehicle from the other dealership. As a result, consumers can usually get a better deal on a model that a dealer has in stock. If you were to lease this car through a bank other than NMAC is would be eligible for the customer cash.
Hey Gregg. Honda is actually providing a little lease support on the Pilot this month. According to the latest info that I have seen, if your friend was to lease a 2004 Honda Pilot EX with navigation through American Honda Finance Corp. this month for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its base lease money factor and residual value should be .00208 and 60%, respectively. I do not believe that Honda is providing any support on 39 month leases of this model, so your friend is better off leasing for 36 months. I don't believe that Honda is providing any dealer cash on this model at this time.
Welcome back, garyking. I would be more than happy to try to give you an idea of what General Motors' lease program is like on the Cadillac SRX right now. However, in order for me to do so, I need you to tell me how long you want to lease it for.
No problem, hartt. The $5,000 customer cash that General Motors is currently providing on the 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer is not compatible with its special lease program. It is providing a lower amount of cash that can be used on GMAC leases. The exact amount of lease cash on this truck, varies depending upon what state one is in. If you let me know where you are, I would be more than happy to give you an idea of what the lease cash is like.

Looking to see what my payments would be in the following applied:
Capitalized Cost: $41,000
3 year/36 months
15,000 miles
trade in worth $8,000.00
Help Please.................
I was offered a 48 mo. lease at a dealership with a MF of .00153 and residual value of 47% w/12,000 miles/yr. Is this a good deal? I am seeing 36 mo leases quoted in the forums at .00185-.00187 with resid of 55%. Is this what I should be looking to negotiate if I choose a shorter lease? (I have excellent credit).
Is the residual value calculated based on the MSRP, the sale price before rebates/incentives or the sale price after incentives?
Why do the lease calculators at Edmunds, lease guide and bank rate all give me different numbers? Which is most accurate?
Will all lessors outside of VFNA include acquisition and disposition fees, or can I try to negotiate this as well?
Should I work with the dealership primarily to negotiate the lease or should I get pre-approval with an online lease company. I have seen a lot of leases posted through Wells Fargo and Chase but apparently they only work through dealerships. We got pre-approved for my husband's lease 3 years ago only to be told by the dealership we couldn't use it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Would you let me know the MF and residual for a 2004 Lexus FWD RX330? MSRP is 39625 and Capitalized Cost is 37500.
MSRP: $23,990
Invoice: $21,600
Rear spoiler: $499
Fog lights: $330
Moonroof visor: $108
Splash guards $89
Fenderwell trim: $75
Cargo net: $49
Total: $22,750
If you take the $500 dealer cash off the total is $22,250. We paid $22,339. The accessory prices are retail prices from Honda's site but they do not include labor so I thought it was a fair deal. We aren't giving them any money up front and the payments are $360 including tax for 36 months/15,000 miles. They stated that they had to increase the money factor because we did not pay the security deposit. So they increased it to .00153. The residual is $13,224. Is that about right?
I feel as though I got majorally ripped off at the dealership today- maybe I did, maybe I didn't! My car (bumper and everything) was appraised at 5500. I still owe 7600 on it. The guy gave me a 36 mon lease for an honda accord ex coupe for 530 down and 359 per month plus tax= 391.31. I thought that was ridiculous but maybe I was wrong. The MSP on the car was 22,600 and the total price of the car on the sticker was lised at 23,090. What do you think?

I would be more than happy to calculate a sample lease payment on this car for you. However, in order for me to do so, I need you to provide me with its full MSRP.

Thanks for all your help!
I plan to lease A 2004 Honda Pilot ex w/leather. I was told with $4000.00 down, 16k miles per year, plus $67.00. I would pay 353.00 per month, with tax it would be $377.84. the 36th month would be 18,516.00 balloon payment, because I am planning on keeping it. I was told that if I pay the tax monthly, I would save on tax at the end.
I would love to hear advice from those experienced about what they think!!Thank you very much!!LILY
Here is the sample lease payment that you are interested in. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2004 Mercedes-Benz C320 Sedan with an MSRP of $42,690 and a selling price of $41,000 through Mercedes-Benz Credit Corp. this month for 3 years with 15,000 miles per, its zero down, pre-tax monthly lease payment should be right around $727.

I am considering leasing a G35 sedan for 39 months w/ 15,000 miles per year. Would you please provide the money factor and residual value for the July program.
Thanks in advance.
Also, I noticed there is a $1,500 dealer cash incentive on the Volkswagen Jetta. Is that money that I can use to negotiate price on the Jetta?
Thanks again!
Thanks once more!
I have a friend who is looking for a Honda Pilot EXL-Nav. Can you please provide the July base residual and MF for a term of 36 and 39 months, with 12K/year miles. Also, is there currently any lease cash (or factory to dealer incentives that we would not know about)on this vehicle?
Gregg
Another lease is almost up, and I need your valuable information again. Could you please look up the current 15K mile lease numbers for both the 6 & 8 cylinder SRX's? Also, are there any extra incentives available in CO?
Thanks for the help.
Thanks again.
