The residual is 59% of MSRP from MAC for 24 months lease. For 36m I was offered 50% residual. The MF was the same for both terms - .00107

I have collected a lot of information. I have two appointments tomorrow at two different dealerships and we'll see how it goes.

My trade in could be the problem, we’ll see. I will post the details tomorrow.

Well I have checked my credit score and it is not as high as yours. The problem is that without knowing what they give for my credit and other factors I can't make a decision as to whether I will get the car through them or not.

As long as your credit score is over 720, your credit is considered "excellent." To my understanding, you can have a score between 720 and 850 and still get the same financing...

Quick update. I spent several hours at two Mazda dealerships last Saturday morning, but I was not able to do much since I was upside down with my current car payments. I am going to need to wait longer so what I owe and what the car is worth are as close as possible.

Nijel, did your $407 payment include taxes? I'm figuring up a deal on a base model 6-speed and I'm finding it's around $357 before taxes. Obviously I'm probably missing some fees or taxes. I figured 7% tax and got $385 per month.

Edit: okay I figured in your options Sport+Spoiler and see how it came up to that.
