.0012 is high for the money factor. The base rate from LFS for August is .0008. They are inflating the MF and adding profit that way.

Go back and tell them you want the .0008 base rate.

Come take over my lease. But mine is RWD and no cold weather. Msrp is $57,xxx. I'm paying. $578/month 24 month 15k/yr lease. Only 4 months in

That payment is including 7% tax so yours may be lower/higher

I was able to get them to come down to .001 money factor. Changing it to 48 months payments are now at roughly $650.00/month. I am pretty happy with this, not nearly as good as what the guys in Cali are getting, but it doesn't seem too bad for VA.
P.S. I spoke with the Alexandria dealership last night, the main sales manager basically told me I was crazy and there is no way that the other dealership would give me that deal. He basically said he wasn't interested if that was in fact the deal I already had in place.

48 month lease???

Payment is too high...just finance it at that point.

Come to NYC - plenty of dealers and brokers will get u this car in the 500s as long as ur Tier 1 credit.

Don't lease for 48 months; doesn't make sense. Might as well just finance at that point

I like it. Just want something different. Ideally with two doors and three pedals

Why does it not make sense with a 48 month lease? Assuming OP is not going to keep the car at the end of the term. He could always decide to keep it at the end of the term.

This is not a good deal. They are inflating the money factor, 48 months is increasing your payment from 36 months...not decreasing it.

What dealer is this?

Walk away.
