What payment is the dealer quoting? And, find out the adjusted CAP cost the dealer is using or that quote.
If I use $52,536 as the cap cost, I get a payment of $531/mo, plus tax.

Thank you for the quick response, does this change with a 450h with a Luxury Package?

Can anyone confirm with me if this is a good deal? This is what the dealership in Houston offered me.
2018 RX450H F-sport. Fully loaded except no Mark Levinson audio and no color HUD.
MSRP: $60,484
Rebate: $2500
Sales tax: 1% (instead of 6.25%)
Adjusted cap cost (including rebate): $52,500
MF: 0.00085
Residual: 56%
This is for a 3yr/15k per year with 0 down, only the first month's payment and document fees.
Thanks!
But, a solid discount from sticker.
What payment did they quote you? I get $591/mo with those prices.

Hi! Thanks for your help. I’ll attach the dealers quote below. I guess maybe I need some clarification. I see how you arrived at the cap cost of $52,536 ($55,036 sale price - $2,500 lease cash), but where do I plug in the $2,000 cash that I’m giving as a down?
I got $524.95 a month, tax in (7% tax). I did subtract the $2,000 out of pocket.
Here is what the dealer quoted me:
I’m specifically looking at 36/7,500 with $2,000. The payment would be $553 tax in.
Thanks again for all your help! I’m grateful!
I also need to clarify with them as they quoted me $638.63 a month (again, not sure if that's with or without tax... seems to be with tax). I calculated $597 a month with tax.
Get disclosure of all of the fees. It's likely that your $2000 isn't enough to cover the first payment and all fees. Especially, in Florida, where dealer fees tend to be onerous. Until you know if you have excess or a deficit from your $2000, you can't calculate a payment.
Ignore the tax number from your document. That is for purchase only.

Then, work from there. They are playing a shell game.

I have this random Nitrogen / Door Edge charge for 795, and these Non-Tax Fees? Do they have to disclose the Non-Tax Fees to me? Also the MF seems really high, at .00155, I think Michael was able to help me showing me it was .00055 instead
Ask them to break out the fees.
The $795 stuff is junk.
Politely tell them you want the base MF, or you find another dealer.

About $1600 added to get the payment to $638/mo.
$550 tax, $795 acquisition fee, $300 DMV/dealer fees?
Seems about right, if it's just first payment due at signing.
That tax credit thing is huge. Saves you about $80/mo.

First, I’d like to thank you for all your help! You have no idea how much I have learned through you and it’s helping me choose the right vehicle through the right sales person/dealer!
I wrote you about a 2018 Lexus RX 350 F-Sport. My numbers didn’t add up to the dealers and you stated I didn’t have all the numbers at that time, I was missing dealer fees. I now have all the fees and I’m wondering if you could help me once again. I’m not sure where I plug in dealer fees, I’m guessing that’s what my inception goes towards. Here’s the breakdown:
MSRP - $ 60,639
Sale Price after dealer discount is - $ 55,036
Lease Cash - $2,500
Term - 36
Miles - 7,500/year
Residual Value - 58%
Money Factor - .00055
Cash Out of Pocket - $2,000
Zip - 33175 (South Florida 7% tax)
Fees:
State Fees Only
$ 59.00 Register car with state
$ 5.00 & $1.50 state fee for tire and battery
$ 300.00 (approximately) for new tag
Sales person states this particular dealer has no fees. Not sure if that’s true or if it’s hidden somewhere, but that is what he stated.
They are quoting me $ 553 / month tax in.
Wondering what you get now with fees and I’m wondering if I’m getting a good deal??
Thank you once again for your help! Very much appreciated!
Sincerely,
Jenny

I get $568/mo, tax included, if I subtract the $2500 from the $55,036 selling price.
My guess is that some of the $2000 up front cash is going to cap reduction.
Ask the dealer for the breakdown of how the $2000 is applied.
I guarantee you that every Florida dealer has fees - large ones. They can't help themselves.

Zip 07960
RX350 AWD MSRP 60698
Sell price 54687
Total rebates (lease cash + others) = 2750
36/10k = 56% RV and .00055 MF
7 MSD to reduce MF to the lowest
795 bank fee
699.75 doc fee
560 estimated registration
7% tax
Option 1 - 1st month only due at signing total monthly payment 599.43
Option 2 - all inception fees paid up front (including tax) monthly payment at 503.71
Any opinions on whether option 1 or 2 would be better to do? I would assume option 1 as I tend to return my lease a little early so I won't have to pay all of the inception that comes with the lease?
thank you!!
