So im getting my first official car (as in the car im paying for my goddamned self.)
The question is; Should i lease? Or Should i buy? I know all the pro's and con's but i mean i just dont really see how they differ. Does anyone out there own a leased car or Do you own a car you bought? This is all so new to me. If your a noob who has no car, dont bother |

Leasin is basically renting. But of course they change the term to lease so it doesn't seem like you're cheap.
So if you rent or lease in other words, you cannot modify the car in any sort of way, you don't have the authority to. I don't even think you can add tints to the car. Nor an audio system I believe. And I've purchased two cars on my own so far. |

Also don't buy from the dealer, as they're there only to ass rape your bank account. Buy from Carmax, you'll get a niiiiice deal... better than the dealership.

im getting an 08 dodge challenger srt. there is a picture in a previous post.
and FYI i can only buy from the dealer because its a limited edition. I was really throwing more for leasing because i only want to have it a couple years then trade it in for a newer one. with everything its about 40k, my payments amonth are relatively LOW because i have fair credit. im still very perplexed. |

Ewwwwww..... well don't keep the car for more than 50k miles, you'll be spendin more money on the car fixing it than what it was first worth lol @40k... with very good credit, you'll be lookin at around $350-400+ on payments and also keep in mind about how much auto insurance is o.O |

i know dodge is crappy, but i mean im only keeping it for about 26k then trading for a diffrent car, if not the challenger then i was thinking about getting an 08 GTO. "/
payments are not the issue my estimated payments a month a $382 and insurance is about $112 a month. Im TORN. |

Buy from Carmax, you'll get a niiiiice deal... better than the dealership. carmax sells crashed cars. also, it all really depends on the dealer. some dealers are anal with mods, some aren't. ask your local dealer before you do anything. and 08 challenger? rofll, be a real (wo)man and get the srt-8. otherwise it's not worth buying american ATM. |

Maybe in your town. But they sell new and used in mine. And I'd also recommend not wasting your money on a brand new vehicle. But if you do lease and you plan to basically rent the car for a few years then change, go for it. |

I guarantee you don't have the discount I have. I've got family who held their careers in GM, and they have many patents in GM cars today. They're valuable to GM :) Uh, something fast as shit that you won't have to do anything to? Like the Z06 or the GT500 or the viper or the s500 or the m5 or the sti or the 911 turbo? Good luck. |
