2010 Mercedes Benz G, GL, GLK, ML Lease Rates – November 2009

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 06:17:43 +0000

My Take: YES! The GLK FINALLY GOT A DROP IN MF! Nothing too significant, but better than nothing. The MLs are also getting MF drops, making it a pretty sweet deal. Recently Brian got a pretty good deal on the ML that VJ had difficulty replicating. However, I got an email from VJ yesterday stating [...]

2010 Mercedes Benz E-Class Lease Rates – November 2009

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 06:01:34 +0000

My Take: Bummer huh? Not exactly what you were hoping for I bet. Well, the E-Class gets no love this month, and I suspect that MBFS is going to keep it like this through early January. Hang in there, sooner or later, they will have to drop it since this car can’t stay “new” forever. Visit [...]

2010 Mercedes Benz C-Class Lease Rates – November 2009

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 05:47:09 +0000

My Take: Wow, damn MBFS for making do this on a Friday night! Regardless, I couldn’t skip town without posting the latest (and greatest) stuff that MB has come out with this month. The C-Class got a big drop (for the most part) in the Money Factor department this month with the residual values staying [...]

2010 BMW 1-Series Lease Rates – November 2009

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:41:25 +0000

My Take: Just like the 3-series, the 1-series is also getting a little bit of love from BMWFS. However, there isn’t a $2500 rebate on the 135i, only $1500 for bother the 128 and the 135. Better than nothing I guess. The good news is that you get the cash, same residual as last month [...]

2010 BMW 3-Series Lease Rates – November 2009

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:35:07 +0000

My Take: Happy Friday everyone! I’ll be out of town this weekend (again) so I’ll leave you with the latest BMW lease rates I found. BMWFS made some minor residual increases for some trims, but models got hit with a higher MF this month. Good news is that there is some holiday cash available for [...]

2010 Honda Odyssey Lease Rates – November 2009

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:18:19 +0000

My Take: Wow, the Odyssey has better lease rates than an Acura MDX. Not the same ride, obviously, but they are both technically family haulers. Looks pretty good, even with the RES. Expect residuals to keep dropping as we get into the next year, so now is not a bad time to get an Odyssey. [...]

2010 Acura RDX, TL, TSX Lease Rates – November 2009

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:51:16 +0000

My Take: No cash on the RDX and TL, but the TSX V6 is getting $1500 cash for the base and $2000 for the Tech. The residuals dropped 1% on the 4 cyl model, while the V6 took a 2% hit. The good news is that the money factors dropped too, so it should [...]

2009 Acura MDX Lease Rates – November 2009

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:34:47 +0000

My Take: There is $2,000 dealer cash available on remaining 2009 MDX. I’m not sure when the 2010s will be rolling in, but I’m guessing its not too far off. The ZDX should be arriving in the next month or so (this winter), so maybe they will bring the 2010 MDX around the same time. [...]

What’s Going On – November 2009

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:17:29 +0000

I skipped October’s post because I was pretty busy with work and my weekends were packed with activities and errands. Just keeping up with lease rate posts was extremely challenging with the limited amount of time I had. So anyway, here are a few things going on this month that may affect or may not [...]

2010 MINI Cooper Lease Rates – October 2009

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 18:00:38 +0000

Update: Found the rest of the rates for all Coopers. My Take: The 2010 MINI numbers as not as good as the 2009 models due to a huge hit on the residual values for the newers models. My recommendation would be to shop for any remaining 2009 model because you will get a better [...]
