The numbers that you see are pre-negotiated. You can’t really negotiate any more. What you see is what you get, plus tax on monthly. I’ve leased from both. If you know what you want, it will literally be a few texts back and forth, and then about an hour at the dealership signing papers, no games, and the finance guy will not try to sell you maintenance or warranties.

It’s just $2000 on your credit card at the dealership, and then for monthly, just multiply your local tax rate by the monthly, and add that tax amount to the monthly. For Jeff, I paid the broker fee via Zelle after I had brought the car home. I think that’s really trusting of him. Most brokers want the broker fee up front. Seth is a dealer so no broker fee.

I thought the Ioniq 6 SEL RWD was $409/mo+tax? Too bad you don’t have a Hyundai because that price on the Ioniq 6 with loyalty ($307/mo) is insane for such a nice EV. I would say that the Ioniq 6 is the best EV, but the Solterra is the best SUV that just happens to be an EV.

Jeff’s numbers are real, you have to add sales tax from where you live.

Any leads on a 2021 Mercedes E450 outside the usual suspects (Cargurus, Autotrader, FB and CL)?

Interested in 21 E53? :slight_smile:

If it’s the same price as a 450, sure! :grin:

Only 7k miles lol

Friend was looking to lease a Genesis G70 SUV about $55K list. One salesperson said $800/month with $4K down with close to perfect credit. Another said he might be able to do $700. The car with a lease expiring was about $52K list and she paid $450/month and $4K down.

Is that what leases are going for now? Are they higher because of interest rates and there is still a shortage of cars?

Maybe you should take a look at the marketplace or send aronchi a PM? I hear the guy is very friendly and patient with folks.

Here’s the G70 lease he was offering a few weeks ago…

Same issue i have right now.
I am leasing a Honda that expires soon. I put down ZERO 15k lease and am only paying 517 MSRP was around 46k
now the same cars are like 800

Even in the good times you had to choose the right car. For example a $50k 3-series could be leased for less than a $30k Honda

The best deals today are mostly electrics and PHEV

Check the Marketplace

Buddy of mine is looking for a bmw x3 with prem pkg based out of San Diego. Comes to Los Angeles twice a month. Can travel to pick up. The best offer he found in San Diego is 3k DAS with 668/month with tax included. I can give his contact info to anyone that can help

Friend of mine is looking for a 2024 Mustang GT, happy to place an order. Reached to Granger Ford who are doing 2% below invoice, however the current wait time is exceeding 6months. Anything below 90day mark or something readily available or in transit is what he has in mind. Not sure if Grangers deal can be replicated? can pass him trough to the broker directly. Looking for 401A, Auto packages as Mandatory. Located in OKC, but willing to travel. DMV works too.

I’m looking for a “starter car” for my teenaged daughter. After checking out the ridiculously overpriced used car listings around here, I’m thinking that a cheap-ish, new car might make more sense, especially if I can get a good deal on something safe & reliable that won’t depreciate dramatically. This would be a cash purchase, not lease. I’ve looked at the usual suspects (Corolla & Civic), but am leaning more towards a small SUV/Crossover.

Does anyone have lead on a new Mazda CX-30 at a decent discount? Any other suggestions/good deals in that vehicle category, e.g., VW Taos (maybe not reliable?), Honda HR-V, Subaru Crosstrek, etc.? I’m in GA, but willing to travel.

Thanks in advance!

An Elantra hybrid was posted in the Marketplace recently with a nice discount. Not a raised hatchback design like the CX30 but probably a much better TCO.

I’m looking at Nissan Ariya’s and see these things piling up on lots around me. They only have $1k in lease incentives this month, and the best discounts I’ve seen on the forum are around 9% in states that have additional EV incentives.

Is anyone finding blowout deals on these in less incentivized areas? I’m hoping dealers/Nissan start wanting to move these soon and I can score a platinum for under $500/mo.

just checked and you need at least $7000 dealer discount to get under $500 on a platinum with minimum driveoffs and no loyalty… I dont think thats happening this month
