Default Best time to lease/buy?

Two years ago when prime was 3.5%, not now when it's at 8%.

However, this past December the money factor wasn't anything special due to the fact the new IS had only been out for a couple months and the car is too hot.

I'm hoping by August there will be enough inventory for Lexus to include the IS with other program specials. If so I will get a '06. If not, I'm going to see if there's one in December and I'll get a '07. Whatever, I'm not in a hurry and am happy to wait.
Well would'nt you get a better deal on a 06 in December? Maybe a demo or a program car?

No because '07's roll in Sept so all '06's are sold by Labor Day weekend.

Lexus calender year Sept- Aug, not Jan - Dec. Once in awhile they'll introduce a new model in the spring and have the model for a year and a half ('07 ES350).

simple....best time to lease is during the months of January and February...(if you on the east coast)...Nothing like snow to slow down sales of rear wheel drives (IS350).

i got my IS300 in 2002 for $389 a month!!!..a super deal at the time...it was loaded.
