(with registration of $321 = $4,584)
Not sure if I calculated everything right, but my total payment should be $4,100 drive-off and then the acquisition fee at the end of $495. Leasehackr Score of 15.5 is not quite ‘legendary’ levels, but I don’t know that I can do much better. I’m up against the 9.5% tax rate too. Haven’t been able to find anything cheaper (literally just need any car as a second car, without dealing with older vehicles/complicated private sales). Tell me if I’m wrong!
