Re: Good car leasing places....

As far as I know, there are no more leases in NY State. They now have Smart Buy, which is kind of like leasing, but the title is in your name instead of the bank's. You pay a monthly amount for the term of a typical lease, and you have the option to buy it out at the end. From what I understand, there were too many lawsuits filed against banks...this was done to protect them.

I leased once... never cared for it. Won't do it again unless I am buying some super type sports car.

You can usually find much better deals doing financing. The 'smart-buy' lease interest rates aren't the greatest which makes it a poor financial decision.

I'm pretty sure that the Smart Buy option is for American cars only. You can still lease a Honda or Toyota or whatever other foreign car.

I leased my new Altima through CARSDIRECT

I had to go to Jersey City to get it but it was well worth the trip - I saved a lot of money. Some of these dealers really rip you off.
