How realistic to find someone to take over a lease

,

@wiresonly - why do you say that vs a new one with some of the deals on the new ones?

@HersheySweet yea id do 6 months now if i could find one, but if i started a new lease or even took over one i’d be aiming to get out of it with >6 months left. Regarding the i8, need some storage space and probably a back seat (even if not huge, possible to have 3 people in it for short rides a few times)

@j_e_f_f - gotcha, very helpful, thanks. 1-2 months wouldnt be bad, i have a place in NJ i could store it even if went back to city in meantime. Yeah i guess <1k range was more the M4s

My $0.02: considering your timeline, you want to minimize out of pocket costs for the short term you’d like the vehicle for. You will probably face less upfront cost swapping into a vehicle rather than paying a broker/dealer

Have you checked on Turo lately? I’d imagine you may be able to negotiate a monthly rate, check out a few cool cars and walk away when it’s all said and done.

Good point, will factor in total cost not just monthly lease payment

checking on there too!

Can take my 740 @hokie2012

Thats a great deal, thats tempting especially with just 6 months left. I’m looking for something more sporty though, it’ll just be 2 of us most the time so no need for a 7 series.

Think of the land yacht!

Sixt.com had 5 series for $600/mo and that includes insurance. They were just running a 20% off sale. One of my clients was waiting for a tundra from me and got a Range Rover for 500 for the month

do you know what location? I looked in nyc and its a good bit more than that

I got an email the other day and just looked for the hell of it in Fort Lauderdale where I usually get a rental

I just checked Las Vegas the 4 i chose were not available.

This was without applying a coupon code

Idk if you have rented from sixt or not (I haven’t) but have heard a lot of horror stories about their rental experience.

I rent from them often when I’m Florida bc I like to get a higher end rental and their prices have been amazing. I’ve had no issues but haven’t used them in the last 18 months.

Those sixt prices are crazy, seeing much higher up in the NE.

Had no problems with them, but in Europe. I get these cheap long term rentals emails from them lately

I have always seen them but the reviews kept me away…

Reviews for ALL major rental companies are bad
