I currently have a Lexus GS350, and leasing a 2013 Chevy Volt. My lease for the Volt will be up in mid July. 36mos with 15k miles per year.. Volt currently have 41k miles, and way under my lease miles term. I was planning to buyout the Volt and keep until the M3. But I just couldn't wait any longer, specially with Tesla dropping the 60 again at $66k.
Now I'm torn and debating with myself between leasing and financing... I've been reading for the past week on pros and cons of leasing and financing. Reading a lot of stuff about how Tesla technology is always improving, and how AP will be much better next year. Also heard once the M3 comes out, we should see some significant changes on the MS.
Not sure which will be a smarter route for me... Lease the car with cheaper out of pocket, and monthly payment. Then just give it back, and decide between getting a newer MS with improved tech or M3. Or just finance the car, and hoping the car is still worth more than RV, and sell it to use that extra cash to put a new MS or M3... I know with a lease I can just walk away at the end of the lease. But financing have more of a risk to it, cause we don't know how much MS will depreciate once new tech, batteries, and M3 comes out.
Anyone else was or in the same situation as I am?
