I'll start harassing my nissan dealer this week. I just bought a Rogue for my fiance a month ago, so hopefully I can get a decent deal on a base 7at. Anyone leasing? How well do these lease? My GTI stickered at $29K, I did a 36 month lease with $1k out of pocket, $389/month, 12,000miles a year. Think I can get around $425/month with about the same out of pocket on a Z that stickers $32K? I'll be trading in my gti with 13 payments left, totaling about $20K with residual value added in. Car blue books at $19.5 (and I'll have to turn it back to stock). We'll see how it goes. Thanks in advance for any info![/QUOTE]

I like leasing most of my cars for the business write off. Unfortunately the z does not lease very well at all. Low residual because they are traditionally driven hard and modified.

A well equipped G37 with a sticker of about $45k comes in with a lower monthly payment than a loaded z

Having said this, I still leased a Touring with sport and navi 6MT z because it's a true iconic sports car. I got a very good price and with $3k out of pocket, my monthly payment is $582 and I get the write off as well.

I might have financed if I had known about Penfed's 3.99% auto loan which many on this forum hare taken advantage of. I found that thread a couple of days after I got my Z. the best apr I could find was 6.99%. My money factor equated to about a 4.2% interest rate.
