Residual

October 2008 Lease Rate for 09 Acura RL

Published by G

My Take: The 09 RL seems to have gotten the TSX/TL nose job as well. Eww. If you are looking to lease this car, it seems to be a much better lease at the base level trim. If you haven’t noticed yet, Honda/Acura tends to give much lower residual values for the cars containing the Tech package. The logic, at least on my part, is that technology depreciates fast and that lowers the residual value for tech packages found accross all of Honda/Acura’s cars seems to reflect that. This isn’t exactly the explanation Honda/Acura will give you, but at the very least, it seems to make sense. With that said, the RL has lease support for the 09 model, so it may be worth a look. Check THE LIST to compare it’s payments with other models.

October 2008 Lease Rates for All 09 BMW Models

Published by G

My Take: Here are the lease rates for the 2009 BMW models. The 2008 models should be the same as last month, here’s a quick link to that post. I’ve picked out a selection of cars that I feel has a good balance of high residual value and lower money factor, compared to the rest of the BMW lineup. You can check out THE LIST later to compare these numbers with other models. As usual, the 1-series’ money factor is getting no love from the folks at BMW. While the 3-series seems to have well-rounded numbers. The upside to the 1-series is that it has a much higher residual value, which seems to help counter the high money factor.

October 2008 Lease Rate for 08/09 Acura TL

Published by G

My Take: The new 09 Acura TL is finally out and it’s looking alright, from a leasing standpoint. The residual value is high, the money factor is also kind of high, but that’s Honda’s standard rate, so it’s not TOO bad. Check out MBs lease rates and you’ll see what I mean. The price range for the TL has gone up considerably, with the base model starting at around $35k. I don’t recommend leasing this car since I’m pretty sure invoice price will be hard to come by. If you do, please leave a comment, inquring minds want to know. For those shopping for an 08 model, there’s about $3500 worth of dealer cash, so that should help offselt the less than desirable residual value and money factors.

UPDATE: I have updated the lease rates for the month. The 24mo lease seems to be a horrible lease right now. That seems to be the trend for most cars nowadays thanks to the financial crisis, it seems short-term leases aren’t as attractive. You may want to consider the 48mo lease in this case. The MF drops and the residual holds steady at 54%, which is better than most 36mo leases.

October 2008 Lease Rate for 08 BMW Models

Published by G

My Take: According to the file acquired from BimmerFile, the lease rates for all BMW 08 models should remain the same through the month of October. If anything changes, I will be sure to update this post with the new rates. Some 3-series, 5-series, X3 and X5 models remain decent leasing candidates on the 36-month term, so be sure to check them out.

October 2008 Lease Rate for 09 Nissan Maxima

Published by G

My Take: These rates are actually as of Sept 30th, since Tarry posted them a bit late. I’ll keep an eye out for the new numbers in case they pop up. In the meantime, feel free use this as “reference”. There isn’t any lease support anyway, so the lease should get cheaper over time.

UPDATE: The rates have indeed stayed the same as last month for the Maxima. Nothing to cheer about really. Maybe next month they’ll drop the MF a bit and keep the residual the same. That would be a good way to get these rides moving.

September 2008 Lease Rate for 08 Mercedes Benz ML-Class

Published by G

My Take: Nothing to get too excited about here. You may get discounts on the sale price, but that MF and residual effectively offset any discounts you get. Pass. May want to try Leasecompare.com to see if 3rd party bank rates are better.

September 2008 Lease Rate for 08 Honda Odyssey

Published by G

My Take: No deals here on the Odyssey. You may be able to get a decent sale price, but you won’t get any help in the residual/mf department. As with most Hondas, watch out for the models with RES. The residual values drop significantly, which will make your payments jump.

September 2008 Lease Rate for 08 Subaru WRX STi

Published by G

My Take: There is about $500 worth of dealer contribution available for the STi. Whether the dealer wants to contribute is a whole other story. I’m willing to bet that as we approach the end of the month, they will be motivated to do so.
Rates are pretty mediocre right now, so you will have to rely heavily on your negotiating skills to get yourself a decent deal out of this. I wouldn’t exactly hold my breath thought. Don’t forget about MSDs, they can really help lower the monthly payments. It beats using your money as cap cost reduction.
