    Here you go skh91423. Ford Credit's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 011 Flex Limited 2WD with 15,000 miles per year in Southern California are 1.5% and 48%, respectively. If you want to lease you are definitely better off going with a 2011 over a 2010 model. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

    I am also looking at a 2011 ford flex limited duratec demo with 5.6k on it. Has tow package navigation and mats. Dealer says he can strike of 5k off the msrp-2.5k current promotion. So 42650-5000-2500 = 35150. How is this price? I didn't had negotiation, what do you think would be a better price on this one?

    Greetings thefinest. Ford Credit publishes lease rates instead of money factors for the vehicles that it leases. LEase rates are just like interest rates. You can convert them into approximate money factor equivalents by dividing them by 2400.

Want SEL with Leather, back up sensors, 40/40 second row, and nothing else. Am located in LA area and there seem to be tons of incentives out there right now. Thanks,

We often fail to remember we need profitable dealers too, and hopefully this weakest link in Ford's North American chain will improve.

    They're going to vary depending upon what promotion and when they happen to be offered. And with the Flex being so new, there's little historical data to work from. You can call almost any credit union who engages in vehicle leasing and ask them. Most have no problem sharing. I wouldn't expect a 39 month 15K residual to exceed 50% though. I figure 45% to be safe.

    I find the Flex to be not just one of the highest-quality and superb-to-own vehicles available, with the vast majority of its benefit being also found in its very well-appointed base SE model for under $30,000 (by more than an eyelash). It also happens to be an exceptionally profitable vehicle for Ford, earning them some of the highest gross margins in their history. Guesstimating a vehicles "success" based solely upon how ...

    I agree madlock. Of course you come out with a high prices on these vehicles because they are new. Once the supply outpaces the demand, Ford will lower the price in the form of incentives. I personally think the tactic is... Price these vehicles super high, then offer incentives to what Ford really thinks the car is worth. This way they budget for the "incentive" price and if they get "MSRP" ... Read More

On that particular vehicle, there's about $1,200 in holdback to the dealer, so you've got that much negotiating room until you hit the theoretical best conceivable deal.
