Find a lease that has approx 8 months left on it, and take it over. You'll typically be able to pay the same monthly lease payment as if you started a new lease, and some people will even give you an incentive payment as a favor for taking over the lease they no longer want.

This is by far the best option, especially if you are not too picky about finding one exact make/model of car.

GOOD IDEA but beware of lease transfer AND turn-in fees when you do not lease another car from the company. Typically $500 x 2.

No. Sales tax, registration and insurance. Plus risk of maintenance.

Factor in use and enjoyment and you definitely come out ahead. As to maintenance, I've owned 3 over the course almost 25 years and no significant early maintenance issues. Plus, the small stuff on them is easy to DIY.
