Default My Lease saga continues...

Now things get interesting. Below is the link to my original post.

Now they told me they were going to see if they could get me the original lease numbers they quoted me in June. Apparently after talking with several people at AFS they were told they can only use the latest numbers which will change again on Tuesday. I told the dealer that was simply bad business, and that they should have locked in a rate for me. They said they'll see what else they can do.

They called me a few hours later and offered a $2000.00 discount on the msrp to help offset the difference in the payment. Its still $150.00/month higher! Man! I can't see the new rates on Tuesday getting lower either...

I guess I should take the discounted price and find another lender. Thoughts?<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/17606.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/17606.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default Take the discount and look at www.leasecompare.com

Also, have you called any other dealers to see if they are saying the same thing?

Default That rate qouted is better than leasecompare.

BTW, leasecompare probably does not do a 24 month lease. To get the payment down, you will have to put some money down for cap reduction. Sometimes you can get a better rate from an independant leasing company.

That's what I am thinking. I was out of town so I'm going to call around this week to see if there is continuity with the lease rates.
