@Anonymous I was at a toyota dealership not too long ago. He offered a lease on a RAV Limited Hybrid for $356@ 36mo. and a RAV XLE Hybrid for $223 @Anonymous mo. He quoted those figures but not in writing since I didn't have my wife's car and but she wants a BMW SUV. I'm trying to stir her away from that actually. She really dosen't want to lease but she actually trades every 3 years or so anyway. What things she I be careful of in a lease? The payments sound good. We are coming in with a 2014 Altima SV (technology and convenience package) with 13k miles and a pay off about $13,500. Should have decent equity. I am thinking about taking it to carmax to see what they will give. What things should I be looking at: how many miles allowance per year? money down? In this case the equity would be the down payment and they also have the 2 yr 24,000 free maintenance plan. Thanks for any tips! Auto scores are north of about 750.
Lease if your wife doesn't drive a lot. You can sign lease for 10-12-15k miles. Almost all lease will have tax lic and doc fee due at lease signing unless they have promo of 0 due and lease signing drive off which they might have for Toyota m. BMW you will be looking at twice the payment and twice the down payment. Your also taking a hit on your 2014 Altima if you trade it in. It's money u lose even if you have equity in car cause it's money you already paid out. I don't see a reason in changing cars every 3 years. Such a waste of money. Only time I see ppl doing it is ppl that want to drive expensive brand car yet can't really afford or more of you car like BMW M6 Porsche or Benz SL series
