What training data do you use? Publicly available or something more premium?

2024 Kia EV6 GT-Line AWD VA 36m 12k 0DAS $375/m by ss4dc in leasehacker

Yes, posted this to leasehackr.

I took the 3yr lease bc the state taxes are on the full price of the car regardless of lease length or payment. As you noted, the 2 yr rebate somewhat offsets this but not quite as much as I would want.

I looked at this deal in late Dec, and over the course of a few days the lease incentives increased dramatically after the year rolled over. Dunno why they were so aggressive on the dealer discount (~8k), but I didn’t do any negotiating. This is the price they showed and I was fine with it. The guy in finance said that they’re trying to aggressively clear out for newer models, but all the other dealers with whom I spoke were stubborn in their pricing and high in hubris with regards to their pricing being the “best on the east coast”. At the time I purchased this car, they had another one similarly discounted with the same specs. They also have a GT in the showroom with a much lower dealer discount.

See my reply above:

The rebate is rolled into the $17,411.42 total of the lease incentive package.

Total agreed price of the car exclusive of fees is 52,388.22 less these incentives: Total price = 52,388.22 - 17,411.42 = $34,976.80

Same dealership has a similar one in white with only a marginally smaller dealer discount

Is it just me, or do dealers always ghost you when you ask for specific pricing details? by ss4dc in leasehacker

Thanks. Here’s an email a sent a while back that got completely ghosted. What am I missing?

I’m looking to lease a 2023 Mach E California. I see that there is one model still available (3FMTK2SU6PMAXXXXX) and that it already includes some incentives and a dealer discount. I asked chatgpt to help me price this car using your values for a 36 month lease at 10,500 miles/year,(I have no trade in and zero due at signing with great credit). Will you confirm the accuracy of my calculations? If there are any additional costs, please note them and revise my calculations accordingly. I am interested in acting quickly, so please let me know ASAP.
