Default Outrageous Lease Price

Yesterday I was quoted $728/mo. For a new 2019 RC with a MSRP of $49900. Isn’t that ridiculous? I currently pay $450/mo. on my 2016 IS lease that ends April 1. AND that was with $2500 down. Thoughts?

we leased our 2017 RC F Sport 200t with Zero down and $495 a month. so $728 seems hella high to me. maybe Lexus isn't offering a good lease on them due to them being so new to the market. kind of like Jeep does on the Wranglers and Toyota does on the Pro model trucks/suv's.

leased 2017 rc200t fsport last November.

3/36 lease @ $450 a month, taxes in. 0 down.

Heard from somewhere, try to keep your monthly payments lower than 1% of msrp.

728$ is normal swiss price for a RC lease. For 450$, I can only lease a Forda Focus. Looks like I didn't grew up in the right place for cars.

I have noticed in Canada that between leasing my 2017 IS350 versus a 2019 RC350 is about 225$ more a month - We can thank a slightly higher price, no incentives (there was a 3000$ F sport credit) and HIGHER INTEREST RATES - It is surprising how a few percentage points can do to a lease amount....
