I have a Hummer H3 lease that is up in Oct. It was a 39 month leases with 15000 miles a year. Can you offer them a lower price than the payoff and how do you go about doing it? Thanks in advance

Hi All- Have a 2006 Murano coming off lease in a few weeks. 20k miles, and the buyout is $19k. Seems like a good deal but would like to be sure. Also, is it correct that I'd pay tax twice? Would I pay tax on just the $19k or the entire value of the car? Thanks in advance, Jason

When you're given the "buy out" price, that price is only good for a specific period of time. I learned this the hard way. Was given a price on my Volvo when lease was up. . . left for a trip out West. When I returned and was ready to take care of the purchase, etc, I was told that price was no longer good. In the end, I had to pay almost $400.00 more than what I was originally quoted. Was told buy out quotes are only good for 10 days !!!!! This is highway robbery. I WILL NEVER lease another car! |

Hi Folks - Because I'm not a car leasing expert and not so good with numbers and such, I thought I'd post here for some opinions/assistance. My 2007 Honda Odyssey (base model) lease is coming to an end. My maturity date is 10/21/09. I am trying to decide what my best option will be for when lease is up. I'm not sure if I should buy, hand it back and walk away, or what ever other options might be available. If I need to share more info, please let me know. The current payoff amount is $16822. The residual value on the lease agreement is $15481. I am over mileage, I had a 15000/yr and am presently at 46500. I don't have another car to drive, so the over mileage will continue till I decide what I'm going to do next. I would like to get my payments back down to something more reasonable, whatever option I choose. These lease payments are killing me, I was so foolish in my younger days..anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated.
