Anyone that has a lease or has leased -

DH and I will be doing our first lease this weekend (hopefully).

Anything we need to be on the look out for?

Any advice you can offer is a big help!

Re: Anyone that has a lease or has leased -

yes if you're getting a 39 month lease make sure the warranty covers the full 39 months! alot of them only cover it for 36 months which is dumb!!!!

and make sure you negotiate that you want 12k miles per year and not the standard 10k that they like to quote people!

good luck sweetie!Chat Icon

Don't put any money down.

You don't get that back if the car is totaled while you have it. Put the money in a savings account instead.

If you can't afford the monthy payments without the down payment, then I'd look at a less expensive car.
