There is an excellent 24-month lease on the Altima S right now. The MF is a measly 0.00003 and the residual is a whopping 61%! That makes for a pretty slick lease right now. The others aren’t half bad either so don’t forget to check out the incentives (link above) on Edmunds.
One thing to note is that Nissan is notorious for giving customers a lot of cash but that cash typically cannot be combined with their financing (which is fantastic) or leasing (which is also quite good too). So be sure to figure out what best suits your situation (leasing or buying).
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.

Hey G– Thanks again for posting these. There is a banner ad that appears sometimes on Edmunds.com incentives pages for an additional $2,000 visa card if you lease. Here is where I saw it last: http://www.edmunds.com/bmw/3-series/2011/car-incentives.html
I was hoping that I could get to $300/mo for a 2011 max s using the $2500 dealer incentive and $1300 lease rebates avail, then the $2,000 visa card would make this a go, but so far I haven’t been able to make it happen. Still trying! thanks for all the great posts.
@Chris. I see it. That’s an offer through Edmunds, not Nissan. I don’t think you can get the full $2500 dealer incentive because that’s given at dealers discretion. The $1300 should be available to you in full, however, that is also given out at dealer discretion. If I were betting man, I would say you can get 9% off MSRP plus $1300 in lease cash. However, I’m not sure how good the lease numbers are on the 2011 Maxima so I would recommend getting those numbers from your dealer first, then figure out if its worth leasing a 2011. Keep me posted on your progress.
