Hello LeaseHackers,
I just received online a quote for 2018 Nissan Murano Platinum.
I plugged in the numbers (best I could in the LeaseHackr calc, but the number I get is different. Something is fishy with dealer stating that the Inception fees I think. Could you take a look and advise.

Below is the image of the quote breakdown:

I am little confused with dealers TOTAL DRIVE OFF = 4,734.58 (this includes sum of Rebates (3675)+Total Inception Fees (1059.58)) - why? - what does it mean? Total Drive off in this case? Should dealer include rebates in Total Drive Off?
Could you explain please?

Total drive off is the $1059, what you would pay. Go lease an Infiniti or luxury brand for that payment. $522 for a Nissan, no thanks

Thanks for advice JoeBlogs. This is first quote, I will negotiate this. The MSRP seems high compared to other Platinums ( https://www.cars.com/for-sale/searchresults.action/?intClrId=27108&mdId=21710&mkId=20077&page=1&perPage=50&rd=150&searchSource=GN_REFINEMENT&showMore=false&sort=price-lowest&stkTypId=28880&trId=24724&zc=07726 )

Also $1059 (inception fees due) are added towards Capitalized Cost Breakdown (capped) added to Total Selling price, why? If this is a drive off?
Why the 1st Month Payment 522.58 is also added? (part of the Inception fees due)?

Itā€™s all pretty clear on the sheet, fees plus first due. Honestly your lucky to get such a break down, but these sheets with ā€œprofitā€ listed make me laugh.

5

I still donā€™t understand why they add the 1st Month Payment to Total Selling price if it is to be paid upfront.

6

Yup, as @joeblogs said, Iā€™d rather get Lexus RX350 for that payment. You may can get that monthly payment with $0 drive-off for RX350.

The benchmark here at leasehackr is 1% so any deal above that is not good.

8

Any murano trim above the S trim gets too pricy. Def not worth it

Dealer lists:
$47910 = MSRP
$43830 = MSRP after discount,
so this rule of thumb for 1% applies to which one?
I like Murano and need cooled seats, hence Platinum. I never said I will pay 522 for a lease. I want to pay 340 Max if the dealer discounts the Total Selling Price to 38000 (21% off). Then payment according to our calc is 314/month.

Am I dreamer or what? 2019 will come out soon. 2018 is leftover ā€˜junkā€™ in their lots.

I can almost guarantee that deal wonā€™t happen, I heard those cooled seats arenā€™t so great when you fart.

Then Iā€™ll refrain from farting. Seriously, Iā€™m giving up on murano, found lexus nx300h hybrid with lower msrp and cooled seats too! Thanks for advising.

this is correct - have never done anything other than a murano S for this exact reason.
