    Hey guys,

    As many of you know I purchased a 2010 Prius back in Jan of 2011. I leased it for 36mo with $4500 down. Currently it has 33mo left and has 3300miles.

    I started working for Lexus a couple months back and was given a great price on a 2011 RX450h. I decided to go through with it, but now have this car which sits in my garage. I am looking for someone who wants to take the payments over. The details are below:

    $24,xxx MSRP sticker price.
    $148.11 monthly payment
    $4500 Initial down-payment.
    $16,xxx Residual buyout value at the end of the lease
    - 1,000 miles a month / 36,000 miles at the end of the lease.

    Car details:
    -2010 Toyo Prius Gen. III
    -Package II
    -Blue Ribbon w/ Beige interior (cloth)
    -Standard CD/AM/FM/SAT/AUX radio. (Rear speakers were replaced with Sound Ordnance for better sound quality.
    -Bluetooth - Dealer Option
    -Illuminated Door Sills - Dealer Option
    -PriusChat Fog light Add-on
    -5,000k HID low beams
    -35% tint all around
    -Exterior Door Rocker Panel Trim with HYBRID logo - Toyota Parts OEM
    -Standard 15" rims. I have the stock hubcap covers for all the tires. I also have the center caps for those who do not want to drive with the hub caps on.
    - 2yrs Toyota Care
    - Lifetime Oil and Filter Changes courtesy of Hooman Toyota of Long Beach. Also Free Car washes and Loan Cars.

    What I am looking for:
    - A candidate who wants to take over this car. You would need to see if Toyota Financial Services would qualify you, if you do then we can continue with the transaction.
    - The Candidate would also need to pay me $4000 down (Im giving you $500 off the down payment plus all the tint, speakers, fog lights, HIDs, and other goodies free of charge.)
    - The Candidate then would then, once everything clears, take over the car and get 2 months free payments ($296.11).

    The total incentive is $796.22. Plus the Tint ($100), HIDs ($150), Fog Lights ($150), Semi Chrome Rocker Panel Trim ($148), Center Rim Caps ($100). All in all its around $1444.22 .... Plus the gas your saving.

    Let me know if your interested, I will be showing the car off SUNDAYS.

    You about had me hooked, until the $4000 charge.
    I am curious why you didn't sell first, before buying the Lexus.

    Anyway, Good Luck

    It's a lease, so at the end of the 3 years, the "buyer" still would not own anything. It still might be an OK deal though. If I was interested, I'd start with $2000 down.

    if you're interested in leasing, i guess you have to see what you can get on a new one. the way things are going, i t may very well be a great deal. i wonder what dianne thinks?

    Well if gas keeps the way its going, the savings you rake in with a prius would soon pay for the expensive down payment.

    Says the "Lady"... Idk who your talking about here.

    I got the RX450h as a company car so my payments are very small and my gas usage is mainly covered by Corp. and the rest I pay for which is ok.

    Greetings,

    I'm interested in buying a Prius. Can this lease be canceled and the car bought from the leasing company now?

    Thanks

    the buyout is 16K after the lease is done. they are probably gonna want the balance of the monthly payments now if you want to buy it now. so around 5K plus 16 + 4500 = 25,500. buyout. is that a better del than anything you can find?
