Hello! This is the initial offer I received. Would appreciate thoughts on how much I can push as this seems high still. I’m willing to travel for a better deal! Also willing to work with broker if that’s better?

First thing you need to do is separate these two. You want to maximize your discount, while getting ready to stack as many rebates as you qualify for.
Also, this method is a common way for a dealer to hide how little discount they are offering, if the bulk of the sum is coming from a manufacturer rebate.
Just keep in mind this is a poor time to lease a car. There’s almost no ICEV that’s leasing well right now.
I’m in Georgia, been trying to work with a dealer that has been very responsive and helpful but they mark up their MF. I’ve tried a few other dealers who haven’t been very transparent so getting a little frustrated at this point.

For 36/10 and $0 downpayment and taxes rolled in they’re quoting $862/mo. I was hoping to get down to $800/mo but is that unreasonable for the SQ5?
Is that specific for the SQ5 that you think I could get 5-10% off? It just in general I should be expecting that for most cars right now? I asked a few dealers to get down to that based on someone else suggesting 10% as well and they all were like uhh no.
Hello! I have an offer from a dealer that I’ll likely move forward with. It’s 6% discount (I’ve tried so hard and am not getting anyone able to offer more than that in my area. I’ve even worked with AutoCompanion but they say they can’t do better and it wouldn’t be worth it with shipping costs). Anyways, I was hoping someone could tell me why the calculator is showing a $795 payment but the dealer is showing $776 when including my $2200 trade-in equity (which I’m going to just take cash for instead). She’s also showing a 42 mo and I’m asking for a 36 mo lease so that needs to be fixed too.
