buying or lease deal 2006 STI

what do you guys think of this.

Finance/purchase -
priced at 30,900 - 2 years @ 0% (then i can get an additional year from my bank for 0%)


Lease
priced at 31,800
drive off: 836 with tax
monthly 515 with tax
3 year /36k miles.



i just want to know what you think of these deals individually...im not really comparing them yet as I have to check with my accountant to see how well the lease can help me with taxes.

It's going to be hard to stay within the allowed miles per year... Very fun to drive.. I would have had my car for exactly 1 year, come Oct 4th... I already have 17k on it right now. I think if I had leased it, I would probably have still drove it that much..




Just my $0.02

if hes not planning to keep it then just lease it...however your 0% financing sounds mighty good...and the price youre paying for it...but yea thats the problem with leasing a car...they give you so few miles..

Two things that are almost certain for Suby drivers:

1. They fall in love with their car.

2. They get tired of stock HP and go mod crazy.


Buy it.
