I’m sure the car would be gone within 5 minutes if that was the case bud. 3,500 due across 13 months makes it an effective 1012+ tax payment with basically 18k miles left for the year.
This same car would go for over $300 more per month with the same structure in this market. Stay firm on that 3,500 OP, it’s a great deal even with that down.
I do wish op best of luck, You should post a picture of the sticker, it will help answer a ton of questions.
However, all perspective buyers should be mindful, if something happens(accident/whatever) to the car, you will not see a cent of any money down to the op. which makes it a bit risky.
I assume he means the classic warning everyone on leasehacker gets when theirs a mention of putting money down on a lease, if it gets totaled on drive off you lose it all.
God forbid, if there is an accident with the vehicle 2 days after the transaction, you are not going to get any value from the $3500 you paid to take over the lease. That’s what I mean.
