Deal check here - San Diego, CA - I got this quote, with $7,500 EV lease offer + $5k credit for performance model (basically making the performance upgrade free).
Question 1: Is this a good deal??
Question 2: Shouldn’t the credits deduct from the total MSRP/vehicle value? Not sure it actually does, I’ve asked my Rivian guide to confirm. Right now, looks like residual is 63.8%. I don’t have the MF yet (asked my guide)…will update once I hear back from Rivian.
Looks to me there are using the lower $89,650 plus some fees as the MSRP and a 63% residual. Hard to tell if this is good or bad without the MF. Let’s us know what you find out.
What’s actually negotiable on these? If nothing then it is what it is.
Other than the occasional coupon code, there’s nothing to “negotiate” with a DTC seller like Rivian, Tesla, etc.
Your paying $37K for a 90K car in a lease (40% cost) so its a better Rivian deal than what’s typically available
Actually - I got a much better deal working with Rivian over the phone then what I was getting quoted online. The Rivian guide said there a few more incentives they could offer that were not available online. It’s much more negotiable than Tesla, that’s for sure. I do still love DTC.
What did your final deal end up being after talking with the guide over the phone?
I got quoted $796/mo on a R1S dual performance with large battery for 36mo/10k. This is with $3000 trade-in credit deal + $2500 color waive as the down payment ($5500).
Still kind of not in the range where its an obvious yes for me so curious how much lower the guide went and what it was they added for you.
What is the driveoff. Is $796/month after tax?
$796 wouldn’t include taxes which I’d pay at signing. They estimate I’d owe $3700ish at signing including Oregon taxes + fees.
Can you submit a SIGNED! form? https://signed.leasehackr.com/
I didn’t end up signing it. I have negative equity in the car I’m replacing and the R1’s are really bigger then my family needs so couldn’t justify the increased cost.
