That's friggin' awesome. As far as the lease though, don't expect to come out ahead at all. The only good thing about a lease is that you'll always be driving a new ride. So, as long as you're cool with always having a car payment, a lease isn't a bad way to go.

Exactly, especially since after about 5 years after its all paid off your next car payment will be replacing and fixing shit that goes wrong! Then comes rust! No matter what too, as soon as the warranty runs out something always goes out!  Believe me I had a 2dr Tahoe that I kept pristine for 12 years, and no matter what I did babying it, it didn't matter. Either something went out or no matter how much wax I put on it all summer I got some rust. Totally changed the way I look at vehicles, still take care of them but I know I can't keep them forever no matter how much I love them!  But I see its not a lease. I think my next car/truck will be a lease though. Probably a truck, that way I can 4 by the hell out of it and as long as I don't break anything turn it back in for a new one!!!!

Financing a car makes no sense- you end up paying more for the car then if you had bought it out straight. Cars are depreciating assets- they loose 5k and more just driving off the lot. If you're not going to keep a car for at least 10 years then it makes sense to lease best thing is to get a fair amount off on the sticker price, set a great residual and lease the car especially since these car companies keep turning out new models ever 3-4 years Not to bust on the financing part- but rather put the money into a home or into bettering yourself.
