attended the C Drive event in Santa Monica over the weekend, and spoke with MB financial rep. He had the residuals as 67% for 24-month and 55% for 36-month leases. Quoted money factor at 0.0025. Just wondering if anyone has heard anything different or found actual rates published yet?

 

I'll post them here as soon as I get them. Should be any moment.

 

Wow the Residual and money factor is pretty good...IMO.

 

I think they can increase the percentage for the 36 month lease, 55% is too low...

 

Has any moment arrived yet?
