2012-13 Volkswagen Lease Rates – May 2012

Residuals and MFs have dropped on most models. The 2013 CC’s residual stayed the same and also received a 0.00005 reduction in the money factor. Lease cash also got bumped from $500 to $750 for this month.

The estimate below is based on invoice + lease cash. However, I get the feeling that you can probably do dealer cost + lease cash. The CC has historically been leased at below dealer cost because of the lease cash VW has consistently thrown at it.


Here is a sample calculation based on TrueCar’s Southern California sale price and do not include local taxes. Please note that your dealer calculations may vary due to local fees/taxes.

2012-13 Volkswagen Lease Rates – April 2012

2013 CC lease rates is out with $500 lease cash incentive. I personally recommend snagging a remaning 2012 because of the 0% financing for up to 72 months. The lease cash on the 2012 is much larger too ($1750) and the lease rate on it is still pretty good: 49% @ 0.00009 MF (Thanks for the info Mac).

Leasing is all about timing folks. You also have to do your homework and be flexible with what you want to drive. Leasing vs buying also plays a huge part in what makes sense. 0% financing for retail purchases is a no-brainer for most people, however, that also depends on the car you plan to get. If you plan to get married and start a family, buying a 2+2 coupe probably doesn’t make much sense, but leasing one does.

2012 Volkswagen Lease Rates – March 2012

VW just bumped the lease cash for the CC by $250 bucks AND is providing 0% financing for up to 72 month!!!! There is a drop in residual value, so I think the extra cash was introduced to offset that (keeping the lease exactly the same as Feb). The MF is already very low (0.00009 vs 0.00012 in Feb) so there was only so much they could go before having to drop some more money at it.

Either way you go (lease of finance), I think you’ll find that a good deal can be had on the CC this month.

2012 Volkswagen Lease Rates – February 2012

No change on the residuals, but you will notice a slight drop in MFs for a few models. That’s good news for us since it just got less expensive to borrow money from VWC. The CC is not a bad deal this month since there is $1500 lease bonus available to customers. However, nothing beats 0% financing for up to 72 months, so you may want to look into that as a possibility if you are open to buying. Check out the CC’s sample calculation below to get an idea on how the CC lease looks like this month. Not bad huh?

2012 Volkswagen Lease Rates – January 2012

VW money factors are really good this month. The problem is that the residual and discounts off MSRP are just “okay” on most models. Not exactly a recipe for great leases if you ask me. If you factor the “trade-in” issue and disposition fees, VW leases begin to look somewhat unattractive.

Oh! Here’s a random VW related incident. Last weekend, as I washed my wife’s Jetta, I noticed the sheet metal of the passenger side’s door was loose. Apparently a screw came off, which was weird. In the nearly 20 years I have been driving cars, I’ve never experienced that. Dealer fixed it quickly and it really wasn’t a huge deal, but it did get me thinking about the long-term longevity of VWs as a whole. Funny how such trivial things leave such big impressions on me. LOL.

2012 Volkswagen Lease Rates – December 2011

There has been a reduction on the MF for the Passat this month. That’s good news because I thought the .00099 MF last month was a tad high. It’s been reduced to .00058 plus the residual has stayed the same. The deal still isn’t as good as I thought it would be due to a measly 4% discount off MSRP in my region. Maybe you will fare better in your neck of the woods. If you are looking to lease one of these and then pay off the car in a balloon payment at lease end, it might not bad a bad idea since the interest rate is 1.39% on the lease VS 1.9% on a purchase. However, if you can’t do a balloon payment at lease end, just buy it using this 1.9% APR. It will be cheaper in the long run.

2012 Volkswagen Lease Rates – November 2011

VW numbers are kind of “blah” this month. lower residuals are pretty much across the board. Money factors didn’t exactly drop to compensate either. Check out last month’s numbers here. To make matters worse, no lease cash on anything! So is there a silver lining in all of this? Yes there is. 0% to 1.9% financing for up to 60 months for select models. No lease can beat 0% financing. Period.

2011-2012 Volkswagen Lease Rates – October 2011

It seems like VW dealers are giving only about 4% off MSRP on the GLI, CC and Passat this month. Given this type of discount, the CC and the Passat are probably the better options. The GLI doesn’t get much lease support (in terms of cash) while the CC gets $1250 lease cash and the Passat gets $1000 plus it has good lease rates. I can’t say the car is, but with numbers like that, the Passat S w/ Appearance pkg is shaping up to be a fairly good lease this month.
