Your post paved the way for the rest of us, so thank you!
I’m hoping to see deals with bigger discounts the closer we get to the $4k rebate expiration. I contemplated waiting to the last day but no time to hack onsite during a weekday.
Sure is a blast to drive! Feels like a go-kart with the top down.
Unless you live in a sunny state, where you can drive the car year-long, I’m wondering if waiting until end of the summer to get a lower monthly lease really saves you money as you will have very little driving time until next year while you are still paying the monthly lease. At least for me, in the North East, since it is a third car to be used mostly for summers, leasing didn’t make sense, especially not at the end of summer. Of course, this is not the case if you are in Florida or California.
As far as I can tell, the good (i.e. .00001 or .00014 MF) MX-5 soft top leases are only available in Florida and California anyway, so that makes it easy. It’s very rare to see a low MF on the MX-5. I’m assuming they only did it where they had especially large amounts of inventory to burn through.
I just got notice from Maita Mazda in Sacramento, CA is offering $8,000 off MSRP on their four Miatas! Now I wish I did wait until the day before the $4k rebate expired.
Ask for Ira in the Internet Department and let him know Davy referred you: https://www.maitamazda.com/new-inventory/index.htm?search=Mazda+MX-5+Miata&year=2018
I just can’t with this thread. Wish I tried harder. Now feeling more than a tinge of regret knowing I left $2,000 on the table. 
maybe there should be a Leasehackr support group for folks like us…
Good deal on mbc300 !!! N
Good deal on 24 months why didn’t u do 36
Got the exact same car on Sunday!
Can’t seem to get the calculator to match my numbers.
2018 Mazda MX-5 Grand Touring Machine Grey
MSRP: $32,465
Selling Price: $25,595
Monthly Payment: $310.32
Cash Due at Signing: $945.70
Incentives: $4,000 customer cash rebate
Months: 24
Annual Mileage: 12,000
MF: 0.00001
Residual: 58%
Local dealer here in Orange County and they still have 3 cars on hand.
I like my leases to be fully covered by the warranty. And I have a short attention span with cars.
does this apply to specifically for mx-5 gt only?
what about the regular sport model thats 5k cheaper ?
It applies to all MX-5 but it will be hard to find any sport around.
Actually I didn’t do as bad as I thought. Forgot about the $957 in rebates (probably flex certificates of some kind) covering the drive-off. So I “only” left about $1,000 on the table, if we assume PhatChoi and spamdavy’s deals are the floor. Live and learn. 
There are literally no new 2018 Sports left. Club and GT have the same MFs (.00001 for 24 months, .00014 for 36 months). Club has slightly lower residuals than GT, but has $300 lease cash in addition to the $4,000 customer cash. No lease cash on GT.
Just got some numbers for myself.
2018 club MSRP 30xxx
Costco -2500
Mazda -4000
Selling at $23xxx
Res 48%
15k/36 $350 and $350 drive off.
Trying to get them to $300.
Wish me luck.
I think $300 should be achievable for 36/15 on a base club. Make sure they’re using the .00014 MF and $300 lease cash.
Dis you do costco???
Didn’t know if it was available to be used!
The manual tranny is worth at least 2k more👍
I have a lead on a black GT manual $31xxx msrp for $299 a month with 1st months payment due and ttyl rolled into it 24/10k. Chose to pass because I have my heart on an RF. PM for details
Also does anyone have RV/MF for RF Club/GT on 24/10 or 24/12 TIA
