Why why why ever purchase? The flexibility leasing gives you is awesome- something happens to the car on a finance and YOU eat the depreciation. I don’t see why financing is ever a better idea anymore, especially on a new model that will have an updated LCI in 3 years |
It does give you benefits if you want to switch every few years. But if you buy a car each generation or longer, it makes more sense financing.
Also, leasing is a little more complicated than just financing, so I certainly see the appeal.
