Price is maybe a bit high IMO. Although, your car does have AWD, nav and 12K miles / year. I'd estimate that seems to be about $50-$75 higher than other people seem to be reporting in other threads for a comperable car lease. But dont sweat it. Its a hot car.

Yea I'm real excited to get it. I was hoping it was a really good deal considering my mom runs the leasing at the dealership...

Interesting that your mom is the leasing manager. Is she able to extend to you any kind of employee discount? Be sure to search for and read the other lease threads so you're armed and ready before you pull the trigger. This is perhaps the single most asked and answered question on this forum. Here's a good comprehensive thread:

Here ill help. To the OP it seems the GM bent you over and ****ed you. Don't take it personally car salesmen (for the most part) are scumbags and aren't above taking their own family and friends to the cleaners.

Well put Bob.

I didn't have the heart to tell it like it apparently is.

How'd I do?




I am paying $505 for is350 fsport

27 months 7500 a year on miles

call a few leasing companies in NY and see what price they give you. its that simple. if its in the ball park then you are good.


google them, infinite leasing, grand prix leasing, presidential leasing or any other one. after that you will have a clear picture.


they funny thing is, you can find a leasing company willing to lose money on the deal because the stealership can hit a bonus if they sell a certain amount of cars and you might get extra lucky. Your moms dealership might not be there, who knows..

oh and what dealership is it?

If you don't have a lot of established credit, and maybe you don't, that is really not a bad lease deal at all.
