Looking to get into an Elantra sport for $200 or less no one down.
This is my first time leasing, so I am going to need some help. Pretty sure I have the basics on MF and RV, the rest Im not sure about.
Would prefer a base sport due to lack of headroom with the sunroof. Manual trans is a must have.
I’m active duty military and a resident of PA, currently stationed in CA. So I could go either state for the deal I think, whichever one gets me the better deal financially.
What should my target price and other contingencies necessary to get me to my pull the trigger price of $199 a month or less.
I’m totally okay with putting money down upfront if it still hits my target price. i.e. $120 a month for 36 months with $2500 down.
Why do these seem to be in such short supply now? When they first came out this year I was seeing tons at the dealers. Now there are none in our entire area, and maybe only 2 within 150 miles. Any idea why?
They are in process of switching over to 2018 and it appears as if the Sport trim for 2018 is not anywhere yet, so any of the 2017’s left are it.
For the OP, I think around 200 is possible for a 2017 base Sport provided you have some around you in stock. I’ve seen quotes of $235/month with $500 drive off for one with the premium package which adds $2400 to MSRP so about $35 to the monthly. So without that around $200 should be manageable even without the extra incentives. This is on the east coast where there is currently $3250 lease cash on this trim, so not sure what it is in CA - obviously that could greatly affect the numbers.
Jetta 1.4T with a manual. Great value for a fun to drive manual sedan. The 1.4T is a terrific engine that makes it hard to justify the additional cost for a GLI, Elantra Sport, etc IMO.
