Hi all -
Here's the latest, from the same dealer I talked to a few days ago. Essentially it's $0 down, $0 out the door costs, $249/mo. Good deal? (Starting to sound better to me - was $999 down before.)
State : WA
Sales tax % : (none - EVs exempt from sales tax in WA)
Leaf Trim, options : S with charge package
MSRP : 31,120
Invoice : (if you know)
Negotiated Price : 28,445
Taxes, Title, Registration : (Not sure, but don't need to pay upfront.)
Residual: .40
Acq fee: $595 (Pay upfront?: No)
Rebate: $8150
Any other fees (doc, administrative, marketing etc) : $150 (Pay upfront?: No)
Money Factor : .00003
Downpayment : $0
Monthly payment : $249.71
Remaining questions:
1) I was asking for 15k miles/year for the same price, but dealer said:
"Unfortunately, the miles directly affect the residual, so If I were to give you the 15k miles/year Nissan would automatically adjust the residual down to account for the expected increase in miles."
My understanding with the Leaf is that the value's going to plummet in 3 years as the tech improves, so I'm not planning to buy the car If that's the case, do I need to think about the residual? Could I say, "No worries. Give me 15k and adjust the residual down."?
2) I'm not sure I can get out to the dealer before the weekend, so would pass the end of the month. Should I worry that Nissan lease terms will change in November? Here's what dealer said:
Assuming we come to an agreement on terms I can't guarantee that this offer will be available after the 31st. I CAN guarantee that the price of the vehicle won't change, but Nissan can change the rates and residuals at anytime.
3) Anything else I should be asking for here? Another dealer was offering 10 free car rentals throughout the year (although his price wasn't as good). Also, I saw someone on here get a free L2 charger as part of the deal. Any other suggestions?
