This was my first lease, and hopefully, it’s not a bad one. It would have been better if I had received the college graduate rebate for finishing my Master’s this coming May. However, after a review, they weren’t able to apply it due to a past personal bankruptcy, even though my credit is back to normal. It only added $9/mo, so I can live with it.
The dealership did some weird stuff with the contract and didn’t list the acquisition fees, sales tax, or registration separately. I guess these were just rolled into the discount on the car. If someone wants to review the contract and create a calculator link, I will edit this post and add it. I was struggling to get the numbers to line up properly.
Lease Terms: 36 months / 12k miles
Monthly: $308.55
DAS: $1,400
Incentives: $1,000 Holiday Bonus Cash Rebate
Numbers from worksheet:
MSRP: $40,226
Selling price: $37,460
Acquisition fee: -
Doc fee: $499
Gov/DMV fees: $41
Residual: $31,778.54 (79%)
Money Factor: 0.00222
Happy New Years everyone!

Could have saved another 2k most likely on this…discount is pretty average.
One pay also would have helped a lot if you have the cash or msds. 39 months is also the same residual so would have saved $ there too

Even in the Southeast? It feels like SETF is rough. But I definitely believe that I left stuff on the table. I thought I checked 39 months and the $ was wayyyyy different.
Just bc you live there doesn’t mean you have to buy there. Text me first next time!

Yeah but what is your broker fee? $1000? $1500? plus shipping?
You should post your fees if you are gonna make these comments in peoples signed threads

That’s smart. Majority of this deal was based on an autoninja pre negotiated brokered deal that I was able to beat. But word for the wise, I’ll look further. The only issue is then shipping cuts into the other part unless I go get it.
The price I said is with my fee included. I don’t make comments like this without including my fee. I know the ropes
Shipping to him around $500 I didn’t include bc many people take a cheap $35 flight to my dealer and drive it back.
If you want my exact msrp and sales price with my broker fee included….
34548 sales price
39,685 msrp
