Hi, I’ve just reassigned and relocated by my company from Asia to Houston, Texas a few of months ago and looking to lease a ride. In a perfect world I’d just buy cash, but thats out of the question. Also I doubt I could finance one with no credit scores.

I’m in love with a CX50 but have no experience at all in car purchase/lease (only had one car in my life and it was a gift). I imagine dealers will try to add everything that can to the pricing. So any pointers for this noob?

Of the dealerships around my location I noticed the following items

Dealer-Installed Equipment $1,295

• Window Tint $499
• Wheel Locks $297
• DNA Vin Etch $499

Are these points negotiable? I did some reading in the internet and saw that VIN etch is cheap and can be done on your own. Also I know that wheel locks don’t go as high as that. Are these points negotiable? I did visit the dealer for a test drive and the sales guy mentioned about maintenance/service package included. What would be a reasonable price for this kind of package? any other pointers/tips?

Thank you in advance
