Off Topic Landfill 3

Go check @HN308’s Jag deal at 30% discount and ask why no incentives can be applied also.

I understand, just showed that it does not matter how dealers or brokers get aggressive deals that cannot be beat with other incentives on top of “regular” discounts. If one cannot get better discount with their loyalty or fleet, then who cares how dealers offer these discounts. There might be some other ways other than yours for these discounts on every car.

The transparency of pricing is not a paradigm on it’s own. It’s merely a means to an end of getting a good deal.
If the price is objectively good I don’t see what the big deal is.
If you’re curious, go read a book. This is a leasing forum not an integrity focus group.

Interested please PM me. Located in Los Angeles

I’d be down for that like…today. Atlanta, GA here. Does anyone know of a deal like that here in Georgia?

I got offered a base model Bolt with Costco, Current Lease, Supplier for $4800 one pay from Stevens Creek Chevrolet ($37,495 MSRP) for Bay Area residents. Seems like a good deal, after $2800 in post credits (CVRP + $800 PGE) the net cost would be ~$2000.

From a consumer standpoint…

Hi I just want a simple answer, is your internet price +/- incentives?

Salesperson: Sure will be happy to help you just need some info…

They want name, number, ssn, wife’s phone number, mothers maiden name, high school mascot and if I’m willing to pay above sticker price for a 2 yr old “new” car that has 17 other people calling and asking about.

@jd81 Seems you missed where I mention that different manufacturers offer different “percentages”.

I dont need to removed from this forum for sharing a simple belief which saves literally everyone money. If the 1% percent rule wasn’t some sort of resemblance of what the goal is with a payment, we’d all be driving $500 dollar per month, 25k cars. Obviously I mention it in the post and you just skim over it to type up a storm instead. What are you even on about?

Me personally, there are other Japanese AWD cars that lease better for essentially the same function of the Forester which is why I said that. 1% rule for an AMG is difficult, but for BMW is easy and if you aren’t picky, they are both luxury car brands for example.

Same follows suit with cross-shopping a Subaru with a Toyota or Honda. Traditionally, Hondas and ESPECIALLY Toyotas lease better overall than Subarus. Now I don’t know how into Subarus OP is, but for the same MSRP he can get a CRV for cheaper and save himself a few bucks which was the whole point of my comment. Whether or not thats a good lease wasn’t what I was basing my comment towards which is why I said “For a Forester, I don’t know the deal”.

It still doesn’t work there either. What is a good deal is dependent on specific vehicle, specific lease terms, and the specific individual. There isn’t a correct percentage for each manufacturer and never will be.

Well obviously, but if you are shopping for an SUV or sports car or whatever your thing is, why overpay for essentially the same thing in a different flavor UNLESS you are completely in love with a certain brand? It’s still a good rule of thumb. If a deal isn’t sub 1% I don’t feel it’s a good deal since in my area of cars I dabble in, there is always a better choice that’s cheaper and does the same function.

My bad for offering an opinion on the deal. Oh well to each their own. I just like getting 1% or less deals on any car I like because it’s great bang for buck regardless of the car in 99% of situations.

It’s a useless rule of thumb.

That isn’t to say a Subaru is the best lease value, but a 1% rule doesn’t do anyone any good in determining that. The only thing it does is mislead people new to leasing into paying too much or having unrealistic expectations.

Damn some of y’all are so toxic, especially if you disagree with what someone says. Relax…

It’s not toxic it’s a simple disagreement…there are quite a few people who have been on here for awhile and have seen to much rhetoric. In car leasing there are no absolutes, we have seen boundaries be broken, we have also seems simple rules of thought not be followed.

Lol if you think some of the responses aren’t rude.
