If I was going to lease, I would have gotten the ultimate leasing machine.

Ya, lease it before it breaks like every other BMW I see on the side of the road... lol. Get rid of it before the warranty goes out!

Neither so I didnt vote...

I had my last Scion (tC) for 8 years, and would probably still be driving it if it didn't roll off a slippery corner onto its roof. Financed for long-term ownership. With the insurance check and tax return as down payment, my monthly is down around $215.

I work for Toyota, we have sold 23 FRS at my dealership and not one has been leased. I had one customer interested in a lease but he never pulled the trigger.

Miniata · 02-20-2013, 07:45 PM

Financed for five years. Plan to have it paid off in 2.5-3 years. I personally don't like to be making payments on a car that is out of warranty.

Out of the 25 or so cars I've had, only one was leased. Had a fairly positive experience with it though, and wouldn't rule it out completely in the future.

JDMenrique · 02-20-2013, 07:48 PM

Im paying $410, zero $$$ down.

sevi21 · 02-20-2013, 08:31 PM

I financed for 5 years with 2k down

ftc~brz · 02-20-2013, 08:40 PM

I financed for 6yrs (for best rate w/smallest payment) with 10k down, I'll have it paid off in 4 or less.

wbradley · 02-20-2013, 08:50 PM

Leasing isn't mod friendly. Since the dealer didn't have any special interest rate or anything cash-ola for me. Actually added 1/2 to LOC.

alyon · 02-21-2013, 02:27 PM

10k down, 60 month am at 3.1%. $230 ish payment.

I don't like big payments. Also don't like leasing. Rather own it.

jenzan · 02-21-2013, 03:29 PM

I'm sorta like alyon with the 10K down, but 24 months at 2.9%. $900 ish.

I don't like big payments either, but I'd rather own this car ASAP and put that money back towards my plans of travelling and owning a house one day.

MissNyxxie · 02-22-2013, 01:03 PM

Leased. No money down, 33 months at $350/month.
