    Hello Michael,

    Three weeks ago I leased a 2015 Toyota Rav4 XLE. I was not planning to lease as I had no prior experience but I was in serious need of a reliable car and ran out of time.

    I know there is a formula, etc.

    But bottom line can you tell me if I got a bad, average, good or great deal?

    Purchased at Huntington Toyota NY 11746
    Black on Black XLE
    36 month lease
    30K miles
    No money down
    Residual value $17,582

    Thanks.

    Hey Kenny, congrats on getting a new car! I am trying to run this deal through the Leasify iPhone app to get a Deal Score but need a little more information.
    • Is this an AWD RAV4?
    • Are there any options/packages installed?
    • What is the money factor and adjusted capitalized cost?
    • Did they call out an acquisition and documentation fee on the deal?

    Let me know! Thanks.

  • kennyrav4kennyrav4 Member Posts: 5
    AWD, Floor and cargo matts and wheel locks, Adjusted Capitalized Cost = $27,695.34. I cannot find anything in the contract called Money or Lease Factor, what else might it be called?
  • kennyrav4kennyrav4 Member Posts: 5
    Acquisition Fee = N/A and I don't see a documentation fee mentioned

    Hi Kenny, the Edmunds True Market Value (average price paid) in your zip code is $26,638 so your adjusted cap cost is $1,057 above that. I am thinking they may have wrapped the acquisition into your adjusted cap cost and that is why it isn't called out. I assumed a money factor of .00062 because of your strong credit score to get to a $309/month payment - that is a pretty good MF and translates to a ~1.5% APR.

    I think you did well but there may have been some room on price to come down closer the average price paid in your zip code. That would have brought your payments down to $279/month and improved your Leasify Deal Score from 6.5/10 to 7.5/10 (above 7.0 is recommended).

    I had a feeling that would be the case. The original offer was for the base model at $279 and I should have held them to that for the XLE. Lesson learned not to go in unprepared. I always like to get the best deal as I am sure everyone does. Thanks for the feedback.

    I also had another question if you don't mind. The lease agreement lists Under the Itemization of Gross Capitalized Cost section an Outstanding Prior Credit or Lease balance charge of $650. Do you have any idea what that is for? They gave me $1200 credit for my trade-in, does this have something to do with that? Thanks again

    Hi all,

    We're looking for the MF and RV for the 2015 RAV4 XLE AWD with Navigation. We're in NYC looking in the tri-state area for a 36 month lease with 12,000 miles per year. Anyone have those figures?

    Thanks much!

    Thanks a lot! We received an initial quote with a .00072 MF and 62% residual, so looks like they marked up the money factor on us

    Hi,

    Thanks for all your help with these numbers. Can you please provide the MF and residual for a RAV4 XLE or Limited in NE PA with 36 months, 12K/year? Are there options for 10K or less per year?

    Thanks!

    XLE - 62%; Limited - 60%

    Toyota doesn't offer 10K leases, but if they did, add 1% to the residuals above.

    No updated MF yet for PA.

    Thanks a million for all of the assistance you guys provide on this site...armed with this info, we got a great deal on a RAV4 XLE (MSRP of 28,800)

    We first negotiated a good selling price (26,500). Then they gave us a quote for a lease, and we made them change the money factor back to .00062. Residual was 62%. We're happy...dealer fees came to ~1,000 (bank fee, doc fee, registration, etc) and tax was ~860. With that, we got a payment well under our 300/mth target with no cap cost reduction necessary. much appreciated!!!

    LE - 72% / 63%
    XLE - 71% / 62%

    I confirm the .00036 MF for the Central Atlantic Toyota region.

    Hello,

    Can you share the 24/36 month residual and mf for an Rav4 XLE and Limited (FWD) in the north Florida area? I would be looking at 10k and 12k miles. So far as I can tell, shooting for a negotiated price of 8-10% off MSRP is reasonable? Also, are there any current incentives, rebates or lease conquest offers on this model? Thank you very much.

    12K/yr
    XLE: .00029 MF and 71% residual
    .00193 MF and 62% residual

    Limited: Subtract 2%

    Don't think Toyota offers 10K/yr, but if they do, add 1%

    Thanks kyfdx. Why do you subtract 2% from the Limiteds rv over the XLE, as the Limited is a higher end model?

    The current lease numberss on the car don't seem too spectacular. What crossover/suv do think provides the best value this month?

    I don't subtract it... TFS sets the residuals by model, term and mileage allowance. I just report them.

    It's typical for higher trim lines to have lower percentage residuals.

    The Tiguan seems to lease out decently, lately. Sedans are usually better.

    Do you recommend waiting? Do you think the 4th quarter rates for the 36 months to get more support?

    SET has already stopped lease support for 2015 Camrys and Corollas. It's just a guess, but at some point they will stop supporting the 2015 RAV4, as well.

    I would confirm if this is a lease through Toyota Financial; other banks may have a higher residual but higher MF to offset.
