OT auto lease folk - the website says $199 / month. I'm getting quotes at ~$400+ / month
Posted on 6/23/22 at 4:53 pm

What is this sorcery?
Dealers say the $199 is a "national" price and doesn't include x, y and z and blah.
My kid is looking for an inexpensive option to go back and forth to work. He's temporarily in another state and we don't want to deal with repairs, etc.
What are options when dealing with a lease? I've never done one and neither has he.
Any recommendations appreciated. TIA!

No down payment changes the note pretty significantly.

Yea the fine print on leasing a car is the biggest part there is. Usually that $199 will be with like $5k own and one of your testicles included at signing

Check out leasehackr.com forum to find the best deals. I saw where nissan trucks were leasing pretty well for 18 months a while back.
Leasing hasnt been that great since covid wrecked the supply chain.
Leasecompanion.com is a company that helps people get in good leases. Working with a broker like them costs you a few hundred but guarantees you a good deal. Otherwise, go to leasehackr and study up on what makes a lease a good deal. Not every vehicle leases well.

The advertisement you are most likely seeing is for a base model of whatever car you’re looking at for $199/month, leased. Also, be careful regarding these ads as they do not include sales tax on the lease payment every month.

Don’t sign the lease?

I shoulda added - the car website said $3k at signing and $199 / month.
The quotes are like $2k at signing and $420 / month.
This is in California, so lord knows what fees / taxes are being added on.

The 1,99.00 is a hook that only a fool would sign, just to get you in the door. The restrictions are insane. Had a salesman tell me, you don’t want to do that.

ONLY $200 A MONTH LEASE!
*includes $18,000 down payment and 100 mile annual usage. Mileage over 100 miles will be charged a penalty of $3.50 per mile.

Only poor people rent, and renting keeps them poor.

I knew the base would be some sort of "we only had one at that price" hook - but nearly double has been an eye opener.
He just needs a base car to piddle around town to work and gamer shops and massage parlors prolly.

Lease can be a good deal if you hit mileage right and have a good residual value. Can't remember the exact term it's called, but there is an equivalent to a finance charge on a loan. Those 3 are the real factors that make the deal.

199/month would be some relatively cheap bare bones car, several thousand down (You're paying a big chunk of the lease up front), and an "ultra low mileage" limit. Probably 10k per year. It also doesn't include taxes or any dealer add ones.

A lease vehicle can be a 100% write off for a business. Many rich people take advantage of this

If you aren't not going thru a lease broker on Leasehackr, you are doing it wrong. Leasehackr has the best deals available for all states. Spend some time reading the forums on that site. Totally worth it.

The website price has small print under it.
That price is with whatever down payment the small print says

Wealthy people lease cars and own homes.
Poor people buy cars and rent houses.
A lease is actually a purchase of the depreciation of the vehicle, you pay it leasing or buying.
