November 2008 Lease Rate for 08 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 08:00:25 +0000

My Take: I’m not sure I can recommend leasing the Lancer EVO GSR or MR at the moment. The MF is rather tempting on the GSR, but don’t let it fool you, it still will cost you upwards of $600 if you want options. The better alternative is to buy using the 0% financing plus [...]

November 2008 Lease Rate for 09 Honda Pilot

Mon, 17 Nov 2008 17:32:09 +0000

My Take: There aren’t cash rebates for the Pilot this month, but you can get special financing at 3.9% for 60 months. I would lease personally since the interest rate is lower. If you want to lease the EX, I think the sweet spot would be a 36 month/12k mile term. Assuming you can get [...]

November 2008 Lease Rats for 08 Infiniti M35 and 09 Infiniti FX

November 2008 Lease Rates for 09 VW Routan and Tiguan

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 21:18:58 +0000

My Take: VW’s brand new Minivan (Routan) has a fairly attractive leasing offer right now. There aren’t any cash rebates, but the residual and money factor is fairly attractive. Remember that you can save yourself anywhere from $20-$30 per month if you opt for the 12k mile term instead of the 15k mile term. That [...]

November 2008 Lease Rates for 09 Acura TSX and TL

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 01:15:13 +0000

My Take: The residual values are strong on the 09 TSX and TL, but the money factor is still the deal-killer here. Way too high in my opinion. I can’t justify leasing a sub-$30k car for $400+ per month after taxes. That’s just too much. I won’t even get into the payments on the TL, [...]
