Given your lack of auto credit history, the first requirement you must change is looking for a new vehicle to lease. Nothing with 4 wheels is going to fit your budget given that limitation.

If I am in your shoes, I will get 2002-2006 Lexus ES300/330, should be around $5-10k.
Finance it to build your credit history and come back here in 2-3 years when you have a good credit history for cheap leases.
Itâs a cheap way to build your credit history, cheap to insure too and a pretty reliable car.

People are being honest and while it might seem rude it is the truth. Someone with a few months of credit history will not get the same deal as someone with 15 yrs of credit history and a loyalty rebate with a luxury manufacturer. Also these âdealsâ are uniquely one off - with a lot of time and energy put in to get them.

What type of fairy tale did you receive to ever give you this perspective? @DailyDriven - nowâs your time to shine haha.
You just came into a country with 340 million people who are all trying to achieve whatever ideal they have for success. Your coming in with a âhigh paying jobâ is already well ahead of the vast majority of them. And how you want some gold-paved path to success with people handing you massively discounted cars and stroking your ego?
Wake up man. Stop with this pity party where you feel like youâre the victim because youâre not getting handed exactly what you want. Immigrants are usually the ones people take advantage of. Finding cheap labor on a H1B paying 50% on the dollar to an American is the American way. Making it hard for newcomers to get access to cheap credit is the American way.
Keep working and youâll succeed.
Start thinking the system is out to get you and others donât help you enough⌠thatâs the loser/failure mindset.
