- Probably the best time to negotiate is within the last month of your lease ending.
- Contrary to what's been said in this thread, ANY dealership can negotiate the residual. It does not have to be who you bought it from.
So I ended up negotiating about $4xxx below my residual. I was pretty happy with that and went with it. Hope this info helps others.
