Car Lease Master Thread

[efflpetzel]

I'm not defending the lease company, obviously they shouldn't mislead (being kind on the wording there). But it's not your first lease. You should know about disposition fees. The leasing company has no control over it, and every single brand charges this fee on every lease.

excuse me, I'm the customer its his responsibility to inform me about the fees involved, & no I'm not familiar with the disposition fee, I was under the impression that only certain companies charge it, that's why i asked him upfront

I'm so frustrated with the yiddishe leasing companies, over the years I've used four different ones & I find them to be consistently dishonest when in comes to stating exactly what the fees are,

latest example with the car I just leased, I was assured there are no fees when returning the car at the end of lease, looking over the contract I see that there's a $350 return fee at the end of lease so I called up my dealer and his response is

'oh you're probably going to lease from the same company so it doesn't  apply to you'

SERIOUSLY 

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot ?

Yiddishe? Do me a favor try discussing your leasing options with two non yiddishe companies amd come back tell us how it went

I don't understand,

So because non jewish dealers might be terrible that makes the jewish company's dishonesty ok ?

I'm not taking the blame off them. But if you've been leasing cars you should know this stuff already. Do yourself a favor and familiarize yourself with how leases work.

Big +1. Bottom line is, selling cars has always been a relatively shady business, and leasing is no different. Some places are more honest, upfront, straightforward than others.

Of course not. There are plenty of other businesses where Jews engage in not entirely above-board practices, and none of them are okay. Recognize that reality and go into those situations with your eyes open.

I'm curious about the upfront fee, what does it usually cover

The amount due at signing is usually itemized in your lease agreement. You might have title fee, registration fee, license fee, sales tax, acquisition/bank fee, etc. If you want to know why they charge a specific fee, just google it.

Funny question for effpletzel,, why not stick to 1 heimeshe company that you like and be loyal? Perhaps your treatment will even be better...
And I know u can say that price is cheaper elsewhere but it seems you would feel better with a good relationship.
My brother used to be in the leasing business and his pride was service and customer retention.

[burryhood]

Agreed. I've gotten screwed too by saving, they never mailed back forms and insurance was deactivated. It cost me a lot more. I now pay $5-10 more a month and sleep peacefully when I lease by going thru a company that gives it to me how it is and does not cut corners.

Another topic, where is the best place to go online to see the best deals available?

I usually go to legendleasing but they haven't updated the site lately so I don't know if those prices are legit.

All these FB and insta accounts dont post deals, just car deliveries AKA spam

Maxima isn't in the same lineup. Call Unique Motors for any pricing.

Finance for 5 years and pay about 31k or lease first and then do a buyout but cost will total 31.8k ?

[Zevi16]

May one go over the mileage if he intends to buyout after or will they charge you for going over before selling it back to you?

[jackofall]

I believe the buyout price set at the onset of the lease is available regardless of the condition of the car.

They won't charge you since you are buying it .
