Assuming the dealership is willing to go less than retail (which in S. Florida is likely) I can get the car for $360/mo or somewhere close.
there is a $1000 lease rebate (cash to customer, at least in CA) so you'd would need them to get the price down at least another 2-3000 in order to come to 360/month including tax. that 420/month is probably 360+tax, etc. or close to it. I just don't see the dealer giving that much discount on an 09.
