If you use the residual of 46% of $52,000 (should be the MSRP though) and if you fold the acquisition of $625 into the lease the pretax monthly payment should be $532.84 before taxes and excluding doc fees. The cap cost you were able to negotiate is the best I have seen yet. It is invoice plus $109.
