You should not keep the leasing car because the residual value is usually higher than the real market price especially in recession.

 

^^^That's not always true. Maybe in hard times, but who knows what the economy will be like in a couple of uears. If the 37 holds it's value as well as the 35, then you can probably make a little money selling the car at lease end.

As for the original question, I'll most likely turn it in or sell it. I like having a new and different car every couple of years. I will take care of it as if it were my own aside from using regular oil every 3k miles rather than syn. I have a clear bra to protect it for myself during my ownership and for resale should I decide to sell it at lease end. There's always the chance of keeping it too depending on my circumstances at the time, so I'd like it to be perfect at the end of my lease.

 

I have decided to buy it out after my lease is up

 

amen brother, thats why I leased mine the first time. I wont be keeping it after my 2 yrs contract.

 

im going to buy my car out, or the exact same car with less miles for a better price.. other than that im like 95 percent buying it out.

 

residual 21k payments over 39months 17k msrp 36k hrmmm...... 38k for a 36k car? i faiL screw that im just gonna lease or buy my next generation G which should come out by the time i get a new car hopeFULLY

 

people's situations change... In 3 years I'm sure I'll have a family, and a 2 door coupe won't be very practical. That new FX looks like my next one... (unless one of the many cars coming out in the next 3 years attracts my attention)...

 

+1 (with the FX not the family part -lol)
