Hey Hackers,
I currently have a 2017 Chevy Equinox LT ($205 monthly) that is due back in June '19, which at the rate I’m driving I’ll be 2k miles over come June. GMF offered me a 4 month pull ahead too. I’m looking most likely for a 24/15 (preferred) or 36/15 lease. Registered in VA. All prices are with $0 down, everything rolled in, and I’m down for MSDs.
I can stay with GMF, thus get a new car sooner and get damages (small dent in door) + extra mileage + disposition waived
So I could get a loaded Equinox* (<$300/m), the new Blazer (<$400/m ), or a Corvette Stingray(<$650/m ).
*the Equinox is only an option because its financially responsible to save that money.
Or I can just return the Equinox in June and go with any other manufacturer. I liked having an SUV (it’s functional), though I never really used the extra space daily. I’m open to sedans (i looked at C300 or 3 series, meh) or coupes too. I want something with decent performance and a nice interior. I’m willing to spend at most $650 monthly for the car. The most important factor maybe if it’s a good deal, for example, I’d rather get the Stingray at say $525/m than a loaded Equinox at say $300/m. I’ve learned everything I know about leasing from this forum. I’ve leased a '16 Corolla LE ($150/m), my current Equinox, and the famous '17 Encore $1,800 one pay (effective $75/m).
Range Rover is at the top end of my band, but super nice cars. Infiniti QX50, nice. S60, nice. Stinger is nice but Kia dealers are out their minds. I like the new Audi A4 too.
My dream car would be a new Tesla but I can’t quite afford that (I also don’t have a place to charge it), maybe after this lease. So, if you’re still reading and interested, I need some recommendations on a new car.
