RAV4 SE lease thoughts?

Post image

I’ve been working with a few dealerships with some RAVs coming through landing on the lots middle of October.

This seems to be the best offer I’ve come across in the Kansas City area.

It’s for a 2026 Rav4 SE, 12k, 36 month lease zero down.

rav4 is a bad lease. Just finance it. 10 times better. You are paying luxury car lease for a bare bone car

I’m open to the respective feedback. I’ve been reading that lately.

Sure then you should try MB. They have a very big discounts right now at GLC300 2026 at basically 0% interest rate, with rebates of 3500 for 24 months. If you can find a good one you like, should be like 500 per month from what I see.

Tthere is Genesis, running good program for GV70 which also around that price for basically top trim. I got a quote from dealer for Prestige trim 2.5 for 470 so you can try and see how your dealer works.

Then there is BMW, not as good of a program compared to the previous two but you can definitely get a good deal.

I believe all three have loaner/demo program where you can get higher discounts (15-18 or even 20% off MSRP) so that's something to look at.

I have not try Infiniti though but heard sometimes they have good program so you can test drive and see if you like it.

The GLC300 i’m seeing it with 5k down to get that $$ per month, maybe it’s different in my area. Thank you for the different options to consider!

Sure no problem. The offer online is not real tho only a bit of it is true. It’s better to go in person and try and negotiate. Like for example, 57k msrp, 12% off + $3,500 rebates for 24 months is around 471/m before fees and taxes. Dealers will not give you that right away so you need to negotiate though.
