Hi all! I am torn between leasing a 2010 S40 T5 AWD R-Design and an Audi A4 Premium Plus Quattro. I have a 2007 S40 T5 AWD and loved it. Here are the lease options I have negotiated so far for the car with metallic, cold weather pkg and multimedia pkg: MSRP= $34,650 Cap cost= $27,850 Months MF Resid Up Front Monthly 36 0.00237 15246 1572 497.48 39 0.00237 14553 1561 485.36 48 0.00237 11781 1547 471.57 What do you think of these terms? I need to order the car soon from the factory as I am very particular with the exact configuration that I want and they are willing to order it that way. My current lease ends 1/1/10 and the Volvo Safe and Sound Package (extended warranty to 5/60k and covered maintenance) ends 12/31/09, so I need to order soon. Thanks a bunch! You were helpful in all of my previous car leases/purchases, and I have come to trust your advice.

Replying to: jobualli (Oct 27, 2009 4:45 pm) $1500 down and nearly $500/mo? You know you could buy it for that, right? Or how about leasing an Infiniti G37 for that kind of money? Or a Genesis. Or a C-class. Or... well, probably alot of other nicer cars. Nothing against the S40, of course, but it just doesn't look so appealing at $500/mo.

Replying to: qbrozen (Oct 28, 2009 8:38 am) Thank you for your opinion, but my question was about leasing a S40, not purchasing any other model or even an S40. Besides, even at an unrealistically low interest rate over a 48-month buy, the montly payment is $150 more a month, which is not what I am willing to absorb. Thus, my decision to lease in the first place. If anyone has any insights to the LEASE terms for the S40 outfitted as I indicated, I would appreciate it. Thank you.

Replying to: jobualli (Nov 03, 2009 6:17 pm) If you read between the lines, my answer is "they are terrible!" Unless you meant to ask how these terms compare to OTHER S40 leases, in which case, you weren't clear AND my post did not answer your question. And why you would compare renting a car over 3 years to buying it over 4 is beyond me.
