My Take: Yuck. The 2010 TSX lease rates are just not very appealing right now. The money factor is way too much for my liking. It will probably still lease “reasonably” but you didn’t come to this site trying to get into a “reasonable” lease now did you? If you gotta have it, consider MSDs. If you can wait, I would wait for the MF to drop so that the payments fall under $400 a month.
My Take: Shocking, I know. This is probably one of those rare moments where you will find a Caddy listed on the site. This is US Bank lease, which is why it actually looks pretty decent. I believe the 12k lease is 1% higher on the residual. The SUV looks very sharp and very luxurious, unfortunately, Car and Driver thought the engine was somewhat underpowered compared to other similarly priced SUVs.
My Take: 5-Series lease rates look unchanged from August, which is not such a bad thing since the lease rates are pretty reasonable. I’d like to note that auto sales should take a dive this month (compared to last month) due to the fact that the Cash for Clunkers deal has expired. This may be a good thing since you might be able to get more pricing for your leases. I’d like to remind you that when you contact your dealer, you should already a sale price and monthly payment range in mind. This will make things easier on you and your dealer. Don’t ask the dealer to make you an offer because you will spend a lot of time going back-and-forth, which generally results in much added stress for both parties. Ideally, inquire about all the fees, you should to work your numbers, THEN make your offer to the dealer. This would be the most effective/painless way to go. 
My Take: This is a partial list of September lease rates for the G37. Still working on confirming the rest of the numbers, so hang in there. In any case, there’s been some changes to the sedan’s numbers this month, with the residual value dropping a few percentage points. IFS dropped the money factor as well, so your payments shouldn’t be around the same as last month. If you are shopping for a G37 this month, keep an eye on this post because there could be more updates coming later.
