i'm still surprised so many people buy new cars... just old school thinking i guess. most people don't keep the car long enough to get the full value of purchasing.
then again... it all depends on how the leasing numbers work out with this car. i'm assuming they should be good tho.

Never thought of it that way, but you may actually be right. I generally get tired of a car after about 4 years. If Nissan offers some ridiculous lease terms like the $199/mth for a G37 Journey that Infiniti did, I might opt for a fully loaded 370z, enjoy it, then get rid of it in 3 or 4 years.

leasing has its pros and cons, as does financing. but the Z has never been a good car to lease. It has the worst residual value of any nissan model ( not sure bout the GTR). so you really have to sit down and play numbers to see if it finacially makes sense.

what does it mean by worst residual value?
does that mean the z does not hold its value well compared to other nissans?
