[quote=Anonymous]Leasing can make sense if you are: 1. Interested in a car that is likely to be unreliable down the road or expensive to maintain as it gets older. European or American cars, in other words. 2. Unsure that you will like the car. You are paying for the right to return it without having to resell it. For example, you want a minivan or pickup but are unsure you want such a car for ten years. To be sure, leasing involves a financial trade off because you are only renting the car, not buying it. But it can be a good deal if you lease a car that depreciates more slowly. In a lease you only pay for the reduction in the car’s value over the term of the lease. Some luxury cars retain their value surprisingly well. They may be good candidates for a lease, as they may also be the type of cars you wouldn’t want to keep for many years, because they are expensive to maintain and are not long-term reliable. I believe BMW and Mercedes fall into this camp. [/quote]
