Thanks to everyone for contributing to the forum. I assume if you're trying to get into a Legacy lease, I don't have to go over the pros. Here was my deal. 150/mo ($161/mo after San Diego Sales Tax), 999 down (covered all the other taxes licensing), 2 year lease, 10k miles/year. Legacy Special Ed, w/ moon + auto. DO NOT FORGET -- when you sign they hit you with a $300 fee at lease end when you turn in the car  the end. Non negotiable. Original monthly price was $161, we bargained it down to $150(in lieu of free oil changes)--which they accepted without batting an eye. Makes me think that you guys can do a lot better if you pressure them--we could have, but we didn't. 12k and 15k miles were only a little more, but don't need the miles. This was at Bob Baker Subaru. Irvine still has tons of these things.

Hi Everyone, I recently leased a 2008 Legacy 2.5 SE in the Obsidian Black. The car is well built and drives well but I realized I need something sportier. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a lease assumption for this vehicle? It's an auto transmission and I've only had it for a week thus far. My current lease payment is 242/month with 23 months remaining and 12K/year. I'm in SoCal and I would want to deal with people I can meet face to face I guess. Please message me if anyone is interested and/or wants additional info. Thanks :o) |

I'm looking to lease a Saab 93 or Subaru Legacy 2.5GT manual this month. Could you tell me the residual and money factor for this car, as well as any incentives? I have seen that both 08 and 09 model year Legacys are available. Thanks much!

Is it ever financially beneficial to lease compared to finance? I understand that you're not paying the full cost of the car, which is nice, and you have a set rate that would typically be lower than a financed monthly cost, but my concern is that it's like renting a residence rather than mortgaging... You negotiate a lease of 199/month for 36 months on a new Subaru. After fees, security deposit, and other costs at signing, averaging this over the cost of the 36 months now becomes around 250/month (this would mean about 2000 due at signing). At the end of the 36 months, you have paid $9000 for the lease. The lease is over. You either now 1. buy the car outright from the dealer, which means you basically pay the MSRP on it or 2. get another lease, but nothing counts towards the next lease. In other words, in that same 36 month period, with financing, I could: Finance a purchase at 22,000 "out the door" for 366.00 per month (for 60 months) without any down payment. This becomes 13,176 at the end of the 36 months, but if I decide to sell my car and get a new car, in theory, I should be making some of the money back, right? I guess my question boils down to: - Does the money "spent" on the lease (9000) end up costing less than the deterioration of the finance when you go to trade it back in? (Is the car's value going to drop by more than 9000)
