Locate a Jaguar Car Dealership in your State

I wanted the XF, but the 51 percent residual just killed the deal. I test drove the Audi A7, Mercedes E350 Gas, E350 BluTec, BMW 528 and Jaguar XF Portfolio. I have to say that the Jaguar had the best interior in terms of clean, understated elegance and attention to detail. It also felt the most powerful. However, the German cars braked, steered and cornered marginally better while offering (nearly as) attractive packaging and more-than-adequate power. And, more to the point, except for Audi, they also presented more favorable lease terms. The XF Portfolio had an MSRP of $59875. I negotiated it down as far as the dealer would go to $55775. That is apparently pretty decent from what I'm hearing. The money rate bottomed out at .00081 for 36 mos at 15K miles, also decent. Sales tax rate is a modest 3.2 percent here. Dealer fees of $499, $795 acquisition fee. The residual for 36 mos at 15K/yr (my target) was originally quoted as 52 percent, but at the very last minute they reduced it to 51 percent claiming a "math error." They basically took away the "Jaguar modifier credit" of 1 pct. Confusing. Residuals were 60 pct at 24 mos (!) and 41 pct at 48 mos. Lease with 1st pmt (plus title/tags only up front) due upon signing and with the taxes and fees rolled in rendered a pmt of $1086 for 24 mos, $859/mo for 36 mos, and $813.43 for 48 mos. Again, all at 15K mis/yr. Pmts were $953/771/746, respectively, with 1st pmt, tax/tag/title/fees up front (around 4K) and no voluntary cap cost reduction. In my opinion, these are not particularly great lease opportunities for a mid 50'sK vehicle. Please correct me if you think I'm wrong. Even with the negotiated price way under avg and a money factor which converts to 1.94 pct. Blame the horrible residuals...and the relatively (to other brands) stingy reduction off MSRP. Mercedes, on the other hand (just to name one), offered a 64 pct residual at 30 mos, 55 pct at 36 mos, 51 pct at 42 mos and 49 pct at 48 mos. Mercedes Benz money factors are not exceptionally great for the E350 (.00145 for 36 mos at 15K miles), but their residuals save the day. Of course, it doesn't hurt that, thanks to the Winter Event, MB dealers are slashing up to 14 pct off MSRP on the E Class sedan. Heh.

Hi boyla. It would be much easier to evaluate this deal if you were able to provide us with a selling price for this car. Consumers should always find out how much the dealer is charging them for the vehicle that they want. Let's see if we can play with some numbers for come up with an approximate selling price for this car. It's a little difficult though because I don't know how much of the five grand that's due at signing is a capitalized cost reduction. It looks to me as though we're talking about a $12,000 discount on this car if the money that's due at signing includes a $3,000 cap cost reduction. That's a big discount. If we subtract the $4,200 cash incentive that Jaguar is providing on leases of this car from that, you're looking at a $7,800 dealer discount. That probably puts you at right around dealer invoice. If so, then this is a very good deal for this car. Again I had to make a number of assumptions here because you didn't have the selling price. If you let us know what the selling price is, we can be more precise. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

I am looking for Jaguar's current money factor and residual for the 2012 Jaguar XF Base model @ 36 months and 12K miles a year out of Los Angeles CA. I am looking to close a deal this week. Thanks a ton for all you do!

Does anybody know today's dealer cash incentives on 2011 Jaguar XF base models? I understand there is a national one of $8,000, but believe there may additional regional incentives, particularly in Texas.
