2011 Mustang GT... I think I need to re-think my next car

That's great if you have somewhere to write it off for...But otherwise that's not the best financial decision IMO.

No car is a good financial decisions unless you can buy those million dollar old cars. But leasing is suppose to be a way of getting more car for less money compared to buying. It used to be leasing was only done on higher end cars but now I see car companies trying to lease $20000 cars. And for people who like a new car every couple of years.

problem is you own nothing. it's a glorified rental. just like renting vs buying a house. at least with buying a car you actually own some equity in it. not much due to depreciation but still something. also if you buy a car you can keep it a long time after it's paid off and the only expenses will be gas, maintenance, and insurance. with a lease, your monthly payments never come to an end. you lease car after car and your monthly payments keep going on and on as long as you live.

I havent leased a car yet but in the last 30 yrs Ive always had a car payment. I went 6 months once without one but I like new cars every few years. I dont do leases as I like to mod my cars.
