So you have two leased vehicles? Sounds like you didn't get the milage you needed on this one. You need to set your lease up closely to the use you plan for it.

According to your numbers, you're $3100 out of pocket plus a disposal fee - see your lease contract. Even if you don't want to keep the vehicle, you might want to fix the bumpers - probably for less than 1500 they're quoting and then sell it yourself. Even with all the rebates dealers are offering for new, this wonderful economy seems to be driving a market for newer used vehicles. And even though you don't mention which trim level, 06 is recent enough.
FYI, Hyundai will absolutely not negotiate on the buyout figure, I tried. Twice actually, in PA HMFC can't sell direct to the consumer it has to go through the dealer. I checked with them they said no, asked them to check with Hyundai - nada. Then I called Hyundai the lease end disposal dept - nada as well.
We have an leased 07 GLS w/the 02 pkg maturing on May 1. Has just shy of 30K miles, I like it and the gross out of pocket, total lease payments+residual is still pretty reasonable so we plan to buy it out.

Should I buyout at end of lease or return? by samir1010

I've got a 2007 Hyundai Sonata GLS 4cyl that I leased for my wife and our lease is up in August and I can't figure out if I should keep it or not. My residual payoff is $10800. Its only got 22k miles on it as of now. By then I might have another 1k on it. What worries me is the low resale values on Hyundai so I don't want to pick it up and then get screwed later on if I try to sell it. But $10800 does seem like an ok price to me compared to what I'm seeing around in the market.
  
Just wanted as many opinions as I can get? Is this a good buy or should I return it? Thanks

The biggest depreciation hit has already occurred and you paid for it in the lease.
 
If you like the car and it has less than 25,000 miles, look to see what else you could buy for that $10,800. Ask if the 10/100K warranty applies if you buy the car you have been leasing.

The 10/100K warranty applies to a (1st) lessee who buys out the vehicle at the end of the lease - see pg. 2 sec P of the warranty booklet 'For 2004 Models and Newer' . That was an important factor in our buying out the residual of our '07 earlie rthis month. With 40k or 4 yrs on the bumper/bumper and the 10/100k powertrane, to me your buyout seems like a reasonable value.

Glad to hear that about the warranty. Did you try to negotiate the buyout price at the end of the lease?
 
Thanks

I tried to negotiate the residual - more than once - to no avail, the buyout is firm. They'll tell you this when the lease-end calls from HMFC begin. I tried with several different CS reps and supervisors as well as the dealer where we had to do the buyout - I'm in PA which is one of the states where it can't be done directly through Hyundai. They'll all tell you the same thing, "Hyundai does not negotiate".

Hi avalon2000. Unfortunately, Hyundai is not providing lease support on the 2009 Sonata right now. That means if you really want to lease one, you will have to do so through an independent bank. Chances are that any lease through an independent bank will not be very attractive.
 
If you really want a Sonata, you probably should either pay cash for it or finance it through Hyundai Finance at 4.39% for up to 5 years. Either way, this car is eligible for a $3,000 cash incentive.
