buy or lease a car?

[timtim]

lease if your commute is short.

either way you lose money.....cars depreciate in value anyway once you drive it out of the dealership

True. So buy a honda with all the bells and whistles and you can drive it almost worry free for 200K easy assuming you take care of it. Thats what I did and 11 years later it's still running like a champ with ZERO problems and approachign 200K. Most Americans can't do that. They care to much about what others think so they cripple themselves financially to get a escalade with "22's". Meanwhile I drive a nice car thats paid for and still gets 32 MPG.

Yes you guessed it; I RULE.

Ouch.............. lol

I tend to keep cars 8-10 years so no lease for me. Has anyone owned an Audi in the last few years? I'm really interested in the A4.

 

[walliwalibus]

Personally, leases suck, don't lease. Ever think of buying a very nice used car?

 

[puddlemonkey]

Leasers are tools

 

[walliwalibus]

Leasee's make good used cars for us to buy.... no kidding.
