Default FS ft etc goes in the classifieds, not here

2013 gs350 RWD luxury package. 15k/miles a year 24 month lease. Expires 4/2015. I have a little over 3k miles on it. Payment including 7% tax is $587. I'm located in Tampa, FL. I'm not sure how Lexus lease transfer works but I'm fairly sure It's not too hard. Nebula gray pearl on the light gray leather. Perfect condition in and out. I'm just wanting to get into a coupe. I would like to get $1k down to recoup some of the money down I put. Thanks

Omar

Other options for you:
Use swapalease.com or leasetrader.com
OR
Take it to CarMax and see how much they offer. Compare their offer to your buyout price (as shown on lexusfinancial.com or call)

Omar it is going to be hard to get out of it because dealers are being aggressive right now an the GS350... Not trying to rain on your parade but i just picked one up at $599 with 0 up front.. I did not even give them the 1st month payment , literally drove away and make 26 more payments of 599 on a $56,300 AWD GS350... if it was a F-sport then different story..

Keep in mind mine is a luxury model; same price as the f sport. My msrp was $59k. Also how many miles do you have? I paid extra for 15K miles/yr. I am realizing that getting $1k down is probably not going to happen. So I do think this can be a good deal for someone. Also my payment is $546 + tax.

Working at a Lexus dealer ill tell you this.. Many dealers are going -$2300 back of invoice, no first month payment, $2,500 lease cash, and with $1250 down, a payment of around $480-$525 depending on options.

yup. I switch cars way too often (or so i'm told). i traded in the TL for a 12 535i and then traded the BMW a year later for the lexus. now i'm considering something with 2 doors and a manual transmission. test drove a 13 S5 yesterday and it was amazing

i still dont think you can get as good a deal as i got. 0 down (no BS dealer fees, etc) and $587 a month for a short term 21 month lease with 15K miles.

without tax my payment is $546/month. for 21 months that is $11,466 total money spent in 21 months. show me where i can lease and only pay that much for 21 months!

however, i also just spoke to lexus financial. and they really dont make it easy to transfer a lease. they said it takes 30-60 days; and nothing is electronic. they have to mail me the paperwork, new owner fills it out and sends it in, etc. pain in the butt. my payoff is not too bad at $46,239 so i may be able to sell it for around that amount. or maybe i'll just be smart and hold on to it for another 21 months?!
