A&Q about 350Z
Q:
With the warmer weather approaching and an upcoming promotion at work, I am seriously considering leasing a 350Z Roadster this year vs. trying to buy a used one next year...
Basically, I am wondering how many of you guys are leasing and what it costs you to lease vs. buy...
Thanks in advance...

I financed my Z at 4 percent intrest, so leasing would have been ridiculous. If you plan on doing 12 to 15 k a yr then consider it, but if you can get finnacing under 5% then just buy, leasing wouldn't make sense.
Current Car- Lexus IS300

It also comes down to, are you someone who keeps a car for ever. If you are just buy it, its more cost effective. Especially with low interest rates. If you plan to get a new car every 2/3 years than lease it.

Do you get a car allowance or are you in sales? if so, leasing is great. There is a tax deduction for mileage, interest payments, repairs, even oil changes. I make out great with my lease. However, if you do not fall into this category then as long as your mileage is low then it can be a good deal for you.
I pay $460 per month with a zero down deal with no bank fee or security deposit. My lease is for 36 months with 15K per year on mileage. I took the car off the lot with only a signature. The Z listed for $29K+. The dealer even gave me eight free oil changes.
My deal was better then most since I have been leasing for many years from the same dealer.

after 48 months, the z only worth $15,000? I guess this is only special offer to you (the dealer you are leasing the car from). But does it matter if the Z is track, enthusias, or etc.. ?
