I think leasing is a rip off. No more of a rip off than buying a car and trading it in at a dealership,they absorb the cost and make it look like they are giving you something back for you car,but they are not.

If you like a new car every 3 yrs, lease it. If you like to drive it till the wheels fall off, buy it! Typically a 3 yr lease payment is close to a 6 yr payment to buy. Popular misconception is that you own the car if you buy-not! Miss a payment and see who really owns the car!

I leased a car once as an experiment and I found myself worrying over trivia that I'd never paid attention to before. Little scuffs on the leather seats -- would that cost me money beyond "normal wear and tear" when I turned the car in? How about little tick marks on the windshield, or parking lot nicks on the doors? If you're a worrier like me, buy -- don't lease.

I don't really like leasing, because after making payments for (3) years you don't have anything to show for it. But I do think buying a *new* car is really wasting money, as soon as you drive it, you lose a lot of money. I would suggest buying an off-lease car. You can def find something low miles and save some money! Do research on cars you like, check out how well they tend to hold their value. At least if you buy a car, at the end of making your payments you will have a car - to keep, sell, trade-in!

Leasing costs more, if you have the fund buy it, take care of it and part-exchange every 3 years and you always own a new car.

Buying is better, than leasing one.
