Replying to: bmlexus (Apr 27, 2008 11:33 am) I took out an A5 Sline and S5 after work during rush hour...I was able to find enough room to get up to speed; the S5 doesn't need much room. BTW...love the Audi (Delphi) magneto (wasn't he in Spiderman...or XMen) suspension. |

If I'm open to look at a lot of different brands, which near luxury sedans have the hottest lease deals for a 15K per mile lease? I'm open to 2 or 3 year leases, but assume 3 year leases will have much lower payments, so I would more likely do a 45K 3 year mile lease than a 30K 2 year mile lease. I'm looking for the lowest combination of total costs (lease payments + maintenance and wear etc.). For instance I know BMWs include free scheduled maintenance, but many cars with "Sport" packages and 18" performance tires can cost thousands extra in 3 years due to tires that don't last long and are ultra expensive to replace. If I were to lease one of these vehicles, I would want automatic transmission, premium package with heated leather seats and moonroof, bluetooth. Must not have low treadlife 18"+ sport performance tires. Factory nav would be a plus if any would still fit the price range even with nav. Can less than $450 before tax be done with $0 cap reduction on any of these cars with that equipment based on realistically available discounts in California? 328i, G35 sedan, C300 Luxury, TL, TSX, ES350, are some that I'd like to consider.

I thought I might need to buy a Lexus for a quiet ride, but I found the 3 series to be surprisingly quiet. Not LS460 dead silence, but seemed about as quiet as an ES to me when I drove it regardless of what any db meters may say. I ended up buying a 328i. From inside with the windows closed, the turn signals are most noticeable noise at times: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaQg8JrzL_c&fmt=6 |
