Hi,
I’m trying to lease a 2016/2017 Chevy Volt Premier Trim with Driver Confidence 2 Package. MSRP is around $41,000. I’ve been able to talk one dealership to go down to $34,500 purchase price if I paid cash or financed. I’m trying to get them to turn it into a lease but they just put the cap cost of the same $34,500 and come up with a residual value of $20,500, and money factor .0004. It works out to a monthly payment of ~$400 when I heard other people are getting Volts for $200/month. They just won’t budge and add the $7,500 federal tax credit to either the residual or more preferably as a cap cost reduction. At this point I don’t know if I should just buy the volt outright and take the tax credit myself and take on the market risk. How can I get them to budge or is it purely just the fault of GM’s lease financing? I was reading on this forum that GM isn’t offering the full rebate either which is just bullshit. Any way to sell the car to a 3rd party leasing company at that price and have them take the depreciation risk?
Thanks!
