June 2008 Lease Rates for 08 Ford Fusion

Fusion I4 SE
36mo/10.5k - lease rate 2.5% (.00104) - residual 52%

My Take: Talk about an odd lease, 10.5k miles per year? and the residual drops to 52% after 3 years? If I were Henry Ford, I’d be haunting someone’s dream right about now.  I think that the Fusion is actually a decent car and consumers (based on Edmunds.com) seem to think highly of the Fusion (9.5). The Edmunds editor’s gave it a 7.8 which is a “GOOD”. Thats pretty sad, since when is getting a “C+” considered “Good”? Someone’s standards are a bit low.
