I really wanted a GT but I have a 66 coupe I6 and eventually want to swap it over to a V8. I can afford a GT but I will not have any money left to put into my 66. I was wondering how much a lease would cost me a month for a V6

V6 Premium
Black Exterior
ICAP
IUP
Automatic
Anti-Theft
Side Airbags

I would request a lease quote but dont want to be bothered until I know for sure what I want to do.

I Know you all can help

Thanks
Jeff

 

Ford is having a lease special here in vegas that is 299 for either 24 or 36 months (sorry didnt see the end of the commerical, was too busy watching the car) I dont know if that is for the V6 or the GT. Hope this helps

 

Go to www.fordvehicles.com and build what you want then on the left side use the payment estimater and you can compare the buy or lease payments.

 

On a lease you pay big to own the vehicle for the first two or three years. There was a time leasing was a lot less costly than buying on select vehicles back in the mid 90's. I have not come accross a good lease on a vehicle in demand sense then. Buying may be a few more dollars a month, but at the end of five years you own it. Leasing today is a good deal for business vehicles because of the tax wright off and you just walk away at the end.

 

Not a real smart move. Lease = trap, $$ for dealesr and bad for you.
If you can't afford it leave it alone. Best advise you will ever get. I am not flaming you at all so don't take it that way. You can bet Ford will put a rebate on any left over V-6s at the end of the year. They are already selling at a reduced price in some areas.

 

I looked into leasing my GT but the payment was only like $20/month less than it cost to finance the car, so for me it made more sense to just buy it. The only advantage I found was that with a lease I would not have to pay a yearly property tax on the car (since Ford still owned it). If you do decide to lease, be sure to estimate your mileage correctly, and be ready to walk away in the end because the car probably won't be worth your pre-set buyout.

I did a lot of research on lease/purchase options, and I found the Ford lease to be quite a good program compared with others. They include GAP insurance and property tax, and there are various options for terms, mileage, and buyout/turn-in. It's not a bad deal if you're the type of person who leaves a car stock and wants a new one after a couple years. if you plan on doing any mods or keeping the car more than about 3 years you'd probably be better off to buy. In most cases you can get a loan payment VERY close to a lease payment. If you have good credit, try eloan.com. They have very good rates, and if you are looking for a low payment you can go as far as 72 months on their lowest rate.

One other thing to think that almost screwed me was this... Don't let too many lenders check your credit. Inquiries have a dramatic affect on your credit score (even if you don't actually get loans/lease) I lost 60 points just buy shopping around at different banks, and it almost cost me the approval on the loan I wanted. It sounds stupid, but that's how it works. Check this out, it's very interesting: http://money.howstuffworks.com/credit-score.htm

Sorry to make it so long, hopefully some of this will help you make an informed decision.
