If you cannot afford the car, do not buy it. Starting off your life with major debt on a depreciating asset is just dumb.

No, leasing IS NOT a scam. There's no "exploitation" like you vilify it to be. There are WEALTHY people who lease $100K or more cars because they like using them for 3-4 years, don't wanna hassle with trading it or selling it in ads had they bought it, and use leases as "tax write offs"...

I agree with you, however, that living above your means, especially in this precarious economy which looks dismal, is dumb.

Leasing definitely is not a scam, it can be even more advantageous than financing depending the situation - it all depends on the person. If you are someone who likes to change cars every few years, then leasing is probably the right choice. Also, most leases can be treated like a finance in a way, it just depends on the residual.
