Lease VS Buy

Hello guys, If I lease a BRZ or FRS, can I just add a body kit and tires on it and then remove them at the end of the lease ?

You can do anything you want to it. If you don't return it in stock condition, they will just charge you for any damages.

Why lease if you want to mod? Don't really see the point in it. If it's a money thing, why not buy used?

Leases are like cheap flings. Don't invest in the relationship.

Not any different if you finance or buy straight out. No option is an investment.

Leasing can definitely be cheaper and easier to deal with at lease end in a few years, especially for people who know they aren't going to keep the car much longer than 3-4 years anyway (regardless of how it was "purchased").

Yo faz, sounds like you know exactly what you want to do. Just lease it and throw a rocket bunny kit on there. and then get some sweet tires and you good bro. then just remove it when the lease is up. super easy

There is many positives and negatives to lease vs buying and I wont go into that.


Also I'll say is one good thing about lease is that your basically having a long test drive to see if you will relly love the car
