Leasing or Buying If you want to drive a newer car but do not have the necessary down payment to buy it, then you may decide to lease. If you plan to drive the same car for more than a few years, you will save money in the end by purchasing your car.
50
Advantages of Leasing You can drive a new or nearly new car with a lower down payment than if you purchased the same car Your payments are lower than if you purchase a car. You are not paying for the whole life of the car, just for the time of the lease period. Often the dealer will provide an excellent service package to be sure the car stays in good condition for resale at the end of your lease. At the end of the lease you just give back the car to the dealer.
51
Private Transportation Leasing a New Car
Advantages of lease New car Payments usually lower Service included (usually) Many dealers quit leasing (Chrysler 2008)
52
Disadvantages of Leasing
You do not own the car. At the end of the lease, you have nothing to show for the money you have paid. You may have to pay a security deposit and other fees at the beginning of the lease. If you drive more miles than specified in the lease, you will have to pay an extra fee. Your insurance costs might be greater because the dealer could require you to carry a higher level of coverage.
53
Private Transportation Leasing a New Car
Disadvantages of lease Don’t own (no equity) Pay security deposit Limited mileage Insurance costs Always have car payment Can buy car at end of lease
54
Continued You will always have a car payment. People who buy a car and pay off the loan can drive for years without making any car payments. If you want to end the lease early, you will probably have to pay a significant penalty. You can buy the car at the end of the lease period, but you will pay much more than if you had purchased the car in the first place.
