Sorry to be that newb with a price check, but I have to: New Prius IV Lease: --$1200 drive-off --$330/mth (out the door, inclusive of taxes, etc.) --15,000 miles/year Color is blizzard pearl, tan interior, comes with standard Prius IV equipment, but nothing extra. Please help ASAP...need to pick the car up tomorrow if its a good deal! Thanks in advance and hopefully I can become a valued contributing member soon :rockon:
Not enough info to get a meaningful response. Important variables for leasing are: --purchase price & MSRP --lease term (months) --miles/year --money factor --residual --sales tax rate --first year registration --drive off Which results in a lease rate.
Thanks for the reponse. I'm not really sure about some of those things, but I'm in SoCal so tax is approx. 9.25% and reg is probably $400 and also I'm not going to keep the car at the end of the lease (36mths) so I'm not worried about residual. Some of the rest (miles/driveoff) is in my OP. Thanks for everyones help!
Sounds pretty close. I calculated that the Solar/Sunroof/Nav option that I have costs me about $42/mo. I have a 15k/yr lease on a Blizzard Pearl IV with the above option. My drive off was a bit lower (registration +1st mo) for about $850. My payment is $370 including tax. So, if anything, compared to my deal, you're paying about $350 more on the drive-off. I bought mine from Longo. What dealer are you working with?
I would suggest checking in with Dianne Whitmire at Manhattan Beach Toyota for a quote. She is awesome and will give you all the info you need (ie: lease rate, residual). She posts on here regularly -- check out the dealer's section. I leased my Prius my few weeks ago from her and it was a great experience! Prior to Dianne, I also spoke a few times with Dean Taylor at Longo Toyota. He was a nice guy, and pretty straight forward with my questions. However, I ended up going with Dianne because her price was the best and she had the color combo I was looking for. Robert
That 10% off sticker "you should" equation is not gonna work on Prius in most all cases. There isn't enough markup in Prius with all of the things packaged and wound up together.
