Honestly. It’s what I get for mentioning that as a previous loaner, it should easily be around $400. I don’t even know what to say.

And that’s a loaner/demo with 4k miles on it.

I believe you say “No, thank you.”

Hey but they knocked off almost $10k, it must be a good deal!

For the dealer and for VW. Think about it…they are charging me $22.5k and also get the $7.5k fed credit…so $30K total to lease a $33.2k msrp car for 3 years. Now that’s good business!!!

Hyundai Sonata Lease
Vehicle Price (Net after Rebate): $22,671.00

Cash Down: 0
Term: 36 Months
Monthly: $446.94

Residual $15,264

Might as well buy the car. It should be worth more than $7000 after 3 years.

How is it possible to make $16k in payments when the difference between selling price and residual is $7k?

Marked up MF and MSRP for a selling price?

I told them that their number was pretty terrible and that they probably made a mistake somewhere. They said they understood.

$19,466 (39*499.12) to lease a Malibu LT. You could pay that in cash for a brand new one and own it outright!

This is mind blowing.

Someone here is paying ~675 for a 3 series loaner, ouch.

Is it “fully loaded”?
