This was a last day of the month, homework done in advance deal. This Rubicon 4Xe is about as basic as can be found with a hardtop. It has the premium audio, 8.4" screen, garage door opener, Cold Weather Group, and of course, colors are extra cost, MSRP $66,165. Selling Price $61,628.
Rebates and credits:
CARB state -$4,000
Ally Financial Lease Rebate -$1,750
Federal PHEV Credit from FCA -$7,500
My 2013 CRV trade was $11k, $6k went into the lease and I get $5k back to me.
36 months, 30,000 miles. Residual value $42,345. PA tax is 9%. $438.61/month
I honestly got lost in the process of putting this into the calculator, as the MF isn’t printed on the contract. (Think this is where Ally makes their money.) Hopefully this is helpful to others in the market!
I added the steps bars myself on the second day…
Interesting that when I posted this, I got little more than criticism from the regulars, yet today I see Leasehackr promoting a deal on a $55k 4Xe for $464 a month plus tax. Hmmm.
Thanks for sharing. This is helpful for me as I’m looking to lease a Rubicon. Any advice on best way to go about this? I do like the $439 payment but I noticed that’s with $6k down :). I plan on $0 down for a lease. What’s a good deal number for a lease with $0 down?
On a low end Rubi with incentives now ($12250) and $1000 website coupon you’re probably around $600 effective monthly assuming 5% off sticker and zero down.
There are brokers who could help but SoCal is tough. Maybe @Jeff_BeachCitiesAuto can work something.
