Re: Lease Prices (SBR)
I'll pick up my EB Z in 2 weeks, for around $867 a month. Cash down is almost $4300, term is for 39 months. Pretty close to what I want. I have always leased my cars, love the arrangement. I get a good write-off with my business, and I'll be ready to turn it in for the C6!
Good luck,

Re: Lease Prices (z06bliss)
Leasing allows some folks to get into the car they want that they normally might not be able to finance. It can be a particularly viable solution for those that are able to write off a portion for business purposes. But for most of us, financing or cash purchase is cheaper in the long run.

I will agree that leasing is NOT a good deal if you plan on buying the car at the end of the lease.
Mine: $5K down, $550, 36mo, 15K/yr
HerZ: $1K down, $700+, 39mo, 15K/yr
(Leasing hint #1: Do the math before you do a 39-mo vs. 36-mo lease; it basically means you're going to be picking up an additional year's tax and registration. I did the math on the Z06, and it worked out... Hint #2: it was pointed out to me by ACS Leasing that putting money down on a lease is risky: if something happens to the car, like theft, the "gap" insurance will pay the financial institution, not you - any money you put down is GONE.)

Re: Lease Prices (steve hummel)
In general I agree with Steve, but to those that want to mod their cars or race them (1/4 or auto-x) purchase is the better option. Otherwise returning to stock or additional wear & tear may add substantially to the end of the lease. :cheers:

Re: Lease Prices (sloth)
Leasing works on the money end, however, at 0% interest, buying the car is a sweet way to go.
