I tried to search for it but couldn’t seem to find a answer.
So I plan to lease a car in IN and drive it here for 2 weeks, than drive it to WA. I will put 10 MSD.
From what I understand, all I need to do is get to WA and change my “garaged address” with my leasing company to my new WA address and register the car in WA, which means I would only be paying the registration fee twice, once in IN and once in WA.
My question is, can I return my car to the nearest dealer who sale same brand? Will I get my deposit back from the same dealer or the original dealer?
I’m afraid to ask my local dealer because I think they will be less willing to sell me the car knowing that I won’t do service at his place.

Generally you can return to any dealer of the same brand. And the deposit comes back from the leasing company/bank. The dealer has no financial connection after you take delivery.
Yea. But the trim I want are sold out. An A4 with premium plus and tech package.
I would need a car within 4 days after I get there. So considering it’s in high demand there and I have to rent a car when waiting for new arrivals, lease a car now and drive there costs me 3 day. But it should save me $1000~$1500 after gas and hotel stays.
I’m still debating about it… I don’t know. maybe I should just get an civic… since the lease deal I got in IN doesn’t look too good either.
In your other thread, you posted an offer for $580 per month with 8 MSDs for a $49K MSRP Audi A4. General consensus here is that Audis don’t lease well. I’m sure you could do much better on a comparable car (BMW, Mercedes, etc)
However, if you do decide to get a compact then Corolla, Elantra and Sentra seem to lease much better than Civic (Hondas don’t lease very well compared to their competition, either).
The thing is, a4 is the car I want and desire in this level (compact luxury sedan). So is the civic in its level.
I’m sure 330 and c300 are great cars, but the build that I would consider “equivalent” to the A4 would costs around $52,000 ~ $55,000.
In fact, I think I can get a lower trim A4 in the range of $400~500, which effectively only lacks the B&O audio and the full LED headlamps. But it just won’t feel “complete” to me.
I guess its just that when there is a “perfect” car in my mind, I’d feel so bad to settle for a inferior car in the same tier (again, in my eye) because of money factors. I’d rather go straight to the economy tier to save myself bunch of money.
Now that I type those things out, it really sounds like a type of perfectionism, which is not a good sign.
I think I need to change my mindset to focus more on the good things on a car rather than the bad things, else I will never be satisfied.
hi - i am new to this forum. I am moving to texas and would need to get a new car. I am getting good deals in NY, so, should i lease a vehicle here and ship the car to texas? i know, in texas you have to pay tax on total car value (vs. in NY where to pay tax on total lease amount), anything else i should be worried about?
