If you are undecided between the QX50 or Q50 you should wait for the QX50 redesign which is due in 2018. I wouldn’t buy this crossover now as its an 9 year old design. It launched in 2008 as EX35 and has not seen a complete new design. It is due soon and once that is out this existing QX50 will be available for much less than what you are getting now.
BTW, if you have VPP code the numbers you got are not that great. Your numbers should be at least $20 a month less than what was offered.
Now that the month has changed and there will be different incentives you want to keep shopping and expect to get a good deal by end of Jan.
Just remember that cutting you a check doesn’t mean they are giving you any money.
If your cap cost is X now, it should be X - $1,050 without the check. i.e. your total lease cost is the same whether you take the check or have a lower monthly payment (trivial differences due to interest).
Keeping that in mind (and the fact that December programs ended on either 12/31 or 1/3), you are not in any special situation now where there is any sense of urgency. As @HN308 suggested you can wait til the end of January.
IMO I would just wait 'til your Camry lease is over in 5 months. There’s no free lunch here, you are still paying for the remainder of the Camry lease, just that those payments are spread out over 39 months.
Thanks to pizza882, HN308, max_g for your feedback !!!
I guess you guys opened my eyes, I will wait till the end of May when my Camry lease is done. Hoping to cash in the deals of 2017 memorial day weekend.
Love this forum !
programs got worse on all infiniti models
VPP is only for current nissan or infiniti employees, partner compainies with infnifti , college grad. there is no loyalty vpp.The only car that had loyality is the q60 2500 but you had to have an older q60. so whoever is doing vpp becuase of loyality is faking stuff.
Can you quote your source about the VPP loyalty information? I am sharing the email I got and expect you to share where you got your information.
I was one of many existing Infiniti owners who got an email as well as physical documents mailed to by home encouraging to contact Infiniti loyalty manager and when done so got a VPP-A code which was worth $1250 and was suggested to present it to get another $1250 below the best negotiated price being offered. I had a 2014 q50 and leased another 2017 q50 but was told the code was good on any new Infiniti model.
Also the code I had was good till 01/31/17 so I could have easily used it now. This has nothing to do with loyalty offered on a specific car like you suggest which is a Q60 this month.
For me either q50 awd or bmw 330e. For my wife rav4 or cx5. I dont need 2 new cars so best lease offer wins. We sell whichever car gets replaced. Im in the 32,000 reservation range for tesla model 3 hopefully by november so it will be the second new car. I cant even get a call back on the 330e so i think its already out. Theres like 2 in the entore denver market.
What cars have you driven in the past? In my recent experience, BMW comes pretty bare bones in most models and then get you with upgrades that seem pretty basic. The ride experience is very phenomenal though and smooth. I think for the money the q50 is the better value though… Way more options and a bigger engine. But gas mileage likely suffers compared to the 330e but its just a matter of how much you drive i guess…
Have you considered the new chrysler 300s? For the payment right now in Denver that they are offering, the value really cannot be beat. AWD Fully loaded for 300 a month with practicially nothing down for a 42k car is great.
