Most leases (at least through Chrysler Finanacial) require you to pay out the remainder of the lease upon early termination. You might as well hold onto the car if this is the case. Your best and probably only economical option is to find someone who will take over the lease on your car. The fees for the transfer are nominal but worth it in your situation. Good luck!

If you bought it on impulse, you will most likely have another impulse in the not so distant future. You might be better off financially just keeping and using the car as opposed to getting killed now by taking it back and THEN getting another one sooner or later when the next impulse comes along.
A lot of people do this... when they don't have it they want it, and when they have it they don't want it, and it can go back and forth... a vicious cycle... I've seen it happen. That's how you really lose lots of dough.
You made a choice... you bought a FINE autombile... stick with it and get your money's worth out of the depreciation! Enjoy it! Life is short!
Seriously, do what's best for you, but... consider the above. Again, depending on how impulsive you are (only you know that), you really might be better off keeping the car... as long as you use it anyway. There's really no excuse NOT to use it, unless you need to carry more than one passenger or there is over 3" of snow on the ground. Otherwise it's a daily driver.
Best of luck with your decision!

I don't dis like the car that much to pay thousands to get out of it.
So I will be in the car for some time to come.
Anyway how time is flying latley it will be the end of the lease before I know it!
