you can sell your leased vehicle whenever you want. what you sell it for buys out the lease. |

you sound like a friend of mine so let me put you in your place as i did him.
do you buy a ferrari or lambo for practicality?! NO! you buy it because you CAN! you dont buy it as a grocery getter, soccer mom transportation, baby carrier etc. you buy it for its aesthetics, performance, luxury, and exlusivity. NOT practicality. |

lol seriously. i actually wish i didnt lease but it got me into a car at a payment i could easily afford with insurance. |
Exactly, if I had bought the car my monthly payment would have easily been $100 or more a month.
edit // Besides, it's my first car. It's not like I want to marry it or anything. In 3 years I'll either get a new GTI or an Audi. |

| Leasing is great when u dont have much cash to put as a down payment. I never understood why people buy & finance cars with a low down payment. Then after 3-4 years the cars warranty is up & they have to start paying for expensive repairs on thier own while trying to make a huge car payment. Alot of times too the car they are making the repairs on is worth less then what they owe with how fast cars depreciate. |

thank you. lol i was about to go off on him.
as soon as u put miles on a lambo or a ferarri, it loses about 40k in value.
not to mention, a car in general is the worst investment around. |

i call bull on this because i was looking at getting a GTI almost a year ago when i was car shopping. i was looking at an 04 that had a vin that was WVW...the german manufactured ones. |
An 04 huh? I was refering to the MK4 chassis (I know Bas' is a german car) Maybe Im mistaken or they went back to making them there but for a while they switched to brazil and mexico. |

Mini Coopers are problably the only cars that you might end up getting more money then what its worth once you sell it.
