What Kind of Car Should I Lease?

[TheGame1976]

Does anyone know of any good deals going on right now? I want a 36 month lease and I do not want to put down more then $3,000.

So far Toyota offered $315/month with $4,000 down for a 4 Runner (12K miles year, 48 months)...

Looking at a BMW, Mercedes, Nissan Ultima or Maxima, Acura...

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

my advice would be to buy a car - not lease. have you ever leased a car?

Have you seen the new Mazda 6? They're so sweet. Thats what I'd get if I was getting a new car.

i did a lease once. once.

the mileage restrictions suck. they penalize you for early trade in. you would get more out of the car if you purchased then traded it in on a new one in 3 years. leases are bad news bro!

Do not lease. Buy the

My computer just posted before I was finished WTF. What I was saying is by the end of the lease term. Instead of turning in a vehicle and possibly oweing some penalty money, buy and outright own the vehicle at the end of 36 or however many months you go for.

I have never leased a car. My parents lease and have no problems with their contracts. I owned by 2002 Jetta which is no a pile of twisted steel so I don't want to put the money I get back into another car. We will see what happens.

lease is great, especially if you can write some of it off against your business.

my uncle owned a ******ship, and he said they make very little if anything off leases.

they are always under warrenty, if you dont travel much the milage (km) restrictions aren't horrible

you get a new car ever 2-3 years ...

a car is a very poor investment most of the time (to buy)

[horsepwr]

The wrong car is a bad investment. Buy smart. Not junk. Then it's a good investment. No brainer.

Well you have to take into consideration mileage. I drive about 40k miles per year on average.

So a lease is out of the question for me.

i drive about the same amount of miles ... i just get a crappy car and drive the hell out of it, and sell it a year later for waht i paid for it ...
