2015, msrp of $108k, cap of $92.5k, 1k fee, 1 month due at signing. I'm in NY so the taxes get rolled in. 57% residual and .00135 which brings the monthly lease payment to $1,170.
2016 msrp of $111.5, cap of $103k, 1500 in fees, 1 month due at signing with taxes rolled in. 64% residual, .00175 which brings monthly cost to $1,310.
Both dealers don't have dmv, titles etc rolled in or broken out yet because they are out of state dealers. Shipping may add another $1k.
On the face of it, neither deal looks really compelling to me but I wanted to get some thoughts from the group on where I should be pushing back, etc.
Also, is the Mf that you get based on your credit score? One dealer told me that he always prices out at .00175 and once the application is in if you are over 740, you can get the .00135. Is this true?

Are you sure .00175 was on the 2016? I think it's the other way, at least that's what I've been quoted. This means a 2015 needs to be sold at a significant discount to make the lower residual and higher MF be worthwhile. The dealers that I spoke to with 2015s are discounting them, but not nearly enough to make it attractive.
