Why dont you finance it instead. I mean 15K miles a year is nothing. I will do that in 8 months. I never understand leasing or renting your car. Other than that I guess its a good deal. $500 a month ok

If you finance the car, you do not own the car either, for many ppl leasing is easier, u konw how much to pay each month, and you know when to turn the car in, and dont have to worry about selling it or anything, some ppl (such as myself) like the certainty of it, I do not want to have to worry about spending 3 months trying to sell and car and wonder what price i am going to get for it,
if you put alot of miles on your car (over 15,000 a year), or hold onto cars for a very long period of time (5+ years) then it makes sense to buy/finance

But honestly i think there are many ppl out there that are trying to prove something buy "buying" a car, just so they can say they own it (even if the bank technically owns it), but hey to each his own. whatever suits you best

good luck with the car!

Is the $2500 tax and fees or a cap cost reduction?

if it is taxes and fees, yes pretty good deal.

that is very true, anyone putting cars up against a business is a little less than smart if they buy vs. lease their own vehicle
