By the way, the deal you mentioned probably has a REALLY high Money Factor (interest rate). If you have good credit (around 800) your payment for that deal should be around 700-750$ per month.

EDIT: This is assuming no other costs. If you're upside down on a trade or something then it could be close. Ask them for the lease sheet that shows all the numbers and percentages.
Also, never put a down payment on a lease, that's basically lending the finance company the money for your car ahead of time. Not all dealers will do it , but Lexus Finance does allow Multiple Security Deposits which effectively reduce the money factor. Lots of great articles that explain leasing in easy to understand terms. Understand what your paying and bring a lease calculator with you on your phone or iPad. Know what your money factor or interest rate is and the actual sale price of the car. Those are the things you want to negotiate on, never negotiate on what the monthly payment will be.

Thanks for your input, yeah i never lease before my plan is to lease first to keep monthly payments low now then later buy it, but I don't know it is a good idea or not?

Since you are new to leasing, the dealer may take advantage of you quite a bit. Before signing anything bring the deal here and post it and members here will let you know how good or bad the deal is.
Typically you don't put a lot of money down on a lease, a big down payment can save some money on he interest charge on the lease but there is a risk of losing some or all of the down payment if the car is stolen or totaled early in the lease. Big down payments don't change your buyout at the the end of the lease either.

What's the MF on the second choice with the MSD's?
(After the 7x MSD's were applied from .00190)
Did they break down the 5k down payment?

Ask them if they can match or beat this:



You didn't post the mileage and months quoted, so I'm unsure if 7500K and/or 48 months would work for you.

Sale price is too high in my opinion. You should be able to get them to 59-60k. It's a 2015 and it's Almost March. You need to pick a number you're happy with and be ready to sign if they can hit it, otherwise you may not get their best offer.

Oh I forgot that... It was 36 months 12k per year
I will be going to Pembroke pines this weekend to see if I could get a better deal.

Ok, but keep in mind that lease terms will change tomorrow(expect residual); and this is the last 2015 on their lot.

They are asking for way too much money down as well. Should be at most $1500 unless you're paying off a trade. MSDs are fine.

Yeah I already have the price I want to pay just need to get other quotes from other dealers. I have been plugging in numbers in lease calculator and I know it is doable. 59K sell price is a great discount especially since it has been on the lot for over 250 days.

The dealer I went to has 6 2015 left. Hence why I thought they would make a better deal. having cars on the lot for 250 days one would expect them to want to get rid of them. I

You would think, right?

So far Lexus of Palm Beach, JM Lexus, and Lexus of Kendall have 3, 4, and 5 2015s, respectively, on their lot.

I would ONLY sign that deal and agree to those numbers with "ZERO" down and only first months payment due upfront. See if they can do that, else walk away & let them get back to you

What should lease numbers be on a $75K rcf 2015 10k 36 month average be? $700-900 range? Looking now for a rcf, my lease on my IS is up in 4 months.
