[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 6205186, member: 549629"] Yep its basically like renting a brand new car, every minute of every day of every year. And the people who get a new lease every year or two pay for vehicle depreciation at a constantly severe rate. New cars depreciate the most, and the leasing company certainly recoups that money from the consumer. Its just a financially poor decision to make. The conveniences mentioned are ways to entice as many people into this system of pounding money down a rat hole as possible. That doesn't make it a fiscally responsible choice imo. But, to each their own. What you can and cannot do to modify your leased vehicle depends on the individual contract. But any mods should be done with the intention of putting the vehicle back to (aesthetically) stock condition before returning it. Ive heard of some pretty outrageous charges for cleaning, over mileage, and mods/'damage' done to lease vehicles upon return. Make sure you understand this aspect of the deal very well befor entering into any lease situation. [/QUOTE]
