Greetings.
I’ll be looking to lease a new vehicle soon and my preliminary research has my head spinning a little.
Ive inquired thru Truecar (Big mistake to give out personal info) and Costco. My inbox exploded with junk offers and robo emails.
My question is has anyone in AZ had a positive experience hashing out a deal with anyone locally?
I see the screaming deals from CA and wonder if they can be replicated in the Phoenix area without too many headaches. I got great credit and am not looking to break anyone’s spirit just looking for a legit dealer who knows how to be transparent and wants to make a deal.
I live in Scottsdale and I am looking for an entry level luxury vehicle as well, haven’t found any screaming deals yet. Talking with many different dealers but no luck yet.
I got two hackr worthy deals in Phoenix in last one year, one for QX60 and other for Equinox. It was with lot of negotiations though so it may give little headache:slight_smile: to get great deal, I used VPP and GM discounts to get to a hackr worthy numbers. I will PM you the dealers as I am not sure if I should put in open forum. But in a nutshell deals similar to CA are definitely possible but requires back and forth and haggling, and not straight forward like some of the CA dealers.
Hi,
Could you please PM me those dealers. I live in Scottsdale as well.
Right now, I am interested in BMW, Infiniti and Alfa Romeo but would consider other brands if the price is right.
You are way better off going to LA to source the vehicle. I have done this many times. The latest is a Lexus, I showed the numbers to a local dealers sales manager who scratched his head and said he would just buy the Ca car if he were me. His “best deal” was $3587 more or about $100 a month on a 3 year deal.
Alfa in North Scottsdale gave me best deal, and infinity north Scottsdale as well.
I haven’t pulled the trigger on those. I’ve got a lease on a chevy for half total cost of alfa or Infiniti which was a better decision for me. I leased at Van Chevrolet.
For a 2017 Giulia Ti
MSRP $41,940
39/mo, 10k
$3k down
Rebate as Cap Reduction $4,500
Fees & insurance $1,080
Base payment $$415.93
Total payment $448.99
Purchase option $20,131
That’s if they take 3k off Tempe is offering 3500k off I am trying to get 5000 off what they offered you is horrible sticker 0 off and just rebates which is covered by the manufacturer
When I lived in both Phoenix and Tucson, I was never able to get the local dealers to be competitive with California dealers. So I went to California for each car — it’s not too bad, and you can make a vacation out of it.
I would have loved to support the local economies, but not when it’s $100 per month difference.
I saw your old post on LeaseHackr. Are you still able to help with lease questions? I am interested in finding out more on deals in AZ on the Subaru and Mazda as well and just posted on the forum
