REST OF THE INFINITI LINEUP

 

listed is 36 months but 39 does work a little better in terms of lower monthly payment in most cases...

anyone in the market, don't judge on what the rates/prices were last month-- it's like going to the gas station and telling the attendant we want last months' prices back

 

It's true that 39 months numbers do run cheaper than 36. But 39-months somewhat gimmicky in my opinion and generally does not benefit customers who pay yearly registration fees. You save what? 10 bucks a month, but end up paying like $300+ (if you live in CA) in registration fees for 3 months worth of car, then you get to pay it again when you get into a new lease.

 

The problem with G's calculations is that they are based on base MF rates which most people don't get.

 

Is that in reference to the MF or the selling price of the car?

 

The dealer I bought from said you need a credit score of 700+ to qualify for the base MF.

 

Money Factor.

I don't really see anything problems with my calculations. If you have great credit and are working with an honest dealer, you will get the base rate. Infiniti dealers typically do not pad the numbers like BMW dealers do. Most people who can't get the base rate shouldn't be expecting to get best "deal". If your credit score is below 700, expect to pay more. This is usually the case when you are taking out a loan.

In addition, if you load your car up with options, you should expect to spend more as well. About $30 more per month for every $1000 you borrow.

Get educated, know what a "DEAL" should be then find a dealer that can come closest to that. Simple concept, but not always easy to execute.
