Was it worth it?
I would say so.
They changed the entire seats or they just covered it with leather?
They removed the material and covered it with leather.

Keep in mind if you're planning on buying out the lease, this doesn't increase resale value as much as factory leather does

Also factory leather comes with a whole trim package, and its paid off monthly

I looked into this and decided its not worth it

My car did not come with back up and front sensors. Anyone know a place that can install them at a decent price?

So my application for a lease is denied because of credit.

What options are there?
-Cosigner won't help (they told me)
-One pay. Does that mean I lose the money paid if I total the car? Or anything like that? Where does gap insurance come in?
-Someone else leases for me. How does that affect their insurance?
-Someone else leases under a business. How does that affect price of lease? I know insurance is higher for business leases.
-I lease under a business?
Any other solutions?

I'll call them to run the report if no other choice... but they weren't able to get me a half decent deal. Leasing Direct not only gave me an amazing deal but were also courteous and followed up, whereas Avi from PAL basically hung up on me.

If a leasing company claims that their are no odysseys exl w/o nav on the market, should I ask around, or if he says so he knows what he's talking?

They were liquidating them recently at $25k. But if it was PAL you should ask around.

If you do find you could probably get a good deal...

Nope. I'll buy a used car before taking something I don't want from someone I don't like

Alternatively, I listed some options earlier here and I hope one will work out. Otherwise I can wait until next month and pay off some balances to help with credit... and hope for a similar deal to be around

To clarify - Leasing Direct is offering me a 24 month lease on a luxury car for $280. Originally I approached PAL, and after they offered me a base model Accord or Altima or something for $250 I asked if they have any good deals, Avi told me 'We don't have anything you would think is a good deal.'
I haven't met anyone happy with their PAL lease. Even repeat customers, people who knew the agents before doing business with them, no one seems to appreciate their service. I'll gladly pay more for service, and I won't eat sh** just to get a car.

It happens to be that the first time I leased a car, I had a good experience with them. But just last week when I was in the market for a new car, their customer service was awful. I don't get it. It's like they didn't want the business.
