Money factor for tier one is .00320. Depending on options you will be 1750 ro 2100 a month.

Question is whether or not they will pass on the good lease MF. Sometimes, they expect to work the back-end a little to make some gravy, regardless of your credit

IMO, not a car to lease. Unless you only plan on owning it for at MOST 2 years. Porsches are known for high lease payments per MSRP.

how close to that money factor do you think we should be able to get? what lease length are those numbers figured for? is there a special lease calculator somewhere i can plug in the numbers and figure it out for a 126k car?

Factor 59 to 61 % residual for 3 years.

At 61% I came up with $2014.00 plus tax, I think it will be between 1900 and 2100 give or take a few dollars.

I have never leased a car. Let me get this straight, and somebody tell me if I'm off base, I lease my 997TT for three years and deduct all those payments off my taxes since I use the car for my practice. Next, I can buy the car at the end of the lease for the residual value. So my only cost is the residual amount when I buy the car since all the lease payments are a tax write off. Sounds pretty good to me.
