New Hampshire Chrysler Car Dealers

I'm interested in leasing a 2007 SRT-8 with both option packages and all of the toys. I'd appreciate some feedback on a lease package that a local dealership has put together for me. MSRP: $48,200 Rebate: $2,500 Downpayment: $0 --------------- Cap Cost: $45,700 Residual: .61 Money factor: .00263 Mileage: 12K Term: 39 months Monthly payment: $640.83 Due at signing: $824 No sales tax state. When I plugged in these numbers into the online lease calculator, it came back with $615/month. When I questioned the $25 difference, the dealer said that the bank acquistion ($700) and document fee (~$383) is included in the monthly payment and so pretty much makes up the difference. I'd appreciate some feedback on these numbers. Is this a reasonable deal? John

We were planning to order our 2006 300C AWD, and searched on the Chrysler website so we could find one (any AWD C version) in the 2006 year to test drive - I know there haven't been many changes, but I wanted to see it for myself. A dealer about 30 miles away had one that sounded like a good fit for a test drive. We went there Saturday morning and took it for a spin. Walked around and kicked the tires, chatted briefly with the salesperson and left. (Sales guy: What was your purpose in visiting us today? Us (honestly): We just wanted to actually SEE a 2006 and drive it, so we can make a decision about ordering.) Went to lunch (back near our house). Talked and talked. Car (on lot) had everything we wanted, except had 2nd level Sound/Nav package instead of 1st level (7 speakers, bigger amp) - in addition to Nav/sound, we got UConnect, Sirius, Protection Group, moonroof, etc., almost everything offered. Car also did NOT have the stuff we didn't want (DVD system in rear seat, smokers' group, engine block heater). Brilliant Black, our first-choice color. Although we've bought our past 2 Chryslers from a closer dealer, and had spoken with them about getting a 300C, we had received NO follow-up calls, etc., despite our request to keep us informed when a 2006 showed up. So, decided we didn't owe loyalty to that dealer. Went back to test-drive dealer and sat down to "talk turkey." MSRP/selling price: $40,845. Lease term: 39 months. Mileage/yr during lease: 18k. Initial price immediately came down to high $38k (I don't remember exact number) and lease info worked out. We drove the car home about 2 hours after we walked back in the door. Absolutely love the car - and so does everyone else who's seen it. (The owners of the company I work for tell me it "looks good in our parking lot.") The dealer we used: Contemporary Chrysler Dodge, Milford NH. Like someone above, I'm interested in the "Bentley"-style grill. Any recommendations for which one actually fits best and is highest quality? (I found a plethora of them on ebay.) Hickory

I'm in Massachusetts - placed order out of Dealer in Nashua, NH. Not sure if it made a difference, but I deliberately avoided the moonroof option because posts I had read indicated that this might increase delays - as I say, probably not true, but I was concerned. I'm calling DC back in a few days to see if the answers I got on Tuesday, are the same I get a week later.

AnalogTek - could you drop the name of the dealer you used in NH. Sitting here in Boston, I'd be more than happy to make the drive to a dealer that has inventory and is willing to negotiate. Also, any advice on how to qualify for the Affiliate Rewards Program? Thanks!
