I have a 36/12 Lease question. If you use less than 12 a year is there a credit at lease end?

If the buyout on a lease was based on a percentage of the negotiated price, it would be a better deal to go that route. The trick is that the buyout is based on the sticker price, so if I lease it for 3 years and then buy it at the end, it turns out to be about a wash. It does provide the option to walk away after 3 years, but if I buy it I can sell it at any time and get something else. No matter what, new cars are a bad investment lol.
I paid $33,800, sticker price was right a 42k
Hi guys,
New member here and first post
I just LEASED and picked up my new Genesis on Sunday from Hardin Hyundai in Anaheim SoCal. I got a 2015 sedan, 3.8 Ultimate package in Ibiza blue with the Ivory interior.
I used "truecar" website and got a discount of $7,754 from the MSRP. The dealer didnt give me any grief over the discount and didn't try to "throw any extra's in" that "are already on the car and cant be removed from the package/deal". This brought the price down from the window sticker of $50,186 to $42,483. They DID include a KARR alarm system, but didn't charge me any extra for it! I was happy overall with the price.
I turned out to be tier 4 credit, as I already have another lease on a Hyundai for my wife, so my score was around 680. But, they pushed me up to tier 3, and told me the repayments were the same for tier 1, 2, or 3. So again, I was really happy with that.
I wanted to keep my monthly repayment down, so I actually put a deposit of $6000 down. $4,000 in cash, and then I was going to trade an old car in (99 Infiniti G20), but somebody brought it from me for cash in the dealers parking lot for $2,000! So I used the cash money from that too!!
My lease is a 3 yr lease, 12k miles with a monthly payment of $326.05 and a residual of $29,579.65.
Overall, I couldn't be happier. It drives like a dream..although the lane departure function feels a bit wierd till you get used to it....Maybe I should just drive in a straight line or shut it off.
The only other thing I don't really get is why they would limit the heated steering wheel and heated back seat to the AWD models...I mean in SoCal, you dont need AWD...but a heated wheel would be great a few mornings a year!
Oh, one last thing, I bought the Genesis decal on Ebay for $13 and intend on switching out the Hyundai H on the trunk this sunday for it.
All the best, and happy motoring!

Is that base or with signature or tech package? If it is with any package, that is incredibly cheap.
Congratulations, welcome to the forum, what dealer in socal offered that? I'm in the market for a 3.8 AWD Ultimate...
Not quite sure what you mean by the residual being based upon negotiated price instead of sticker as a better deal and that it is a wash if you buy it at the end of lease.
The residual is based upon sticker, but you only pay depreciation from the negotiated price. If you purchase at the end of the lease you pay the residual, but the total paid is not the sticker, it is the negotiated price. For instance if sticker is 50k, negotiated price is 45k and residual (based upon sticker) is 30k. You pay 15k in depreciation during the lease and then the remaining residual of 30k at the end for a total of 45k.
Hi, and thanks. That was through Hardin Hyundai Anaheim. The sales persons name was Jose. He responded to me after I did the true car pricing. hope that helps,

i think its too good to be true/ congrats if thats all the down payment u had to put down. did u have a trade in? cause im paying 400 a month without awd and tech @2000 dp
If that includes tax then you killed it!! Even if not that's a good deal lower than I was quoted on AWD ultimate.
If that was brand new then it definitely was. Good choice what color is it.![]()
