My lease is 3 yrs, 36K...I pay $459 month. My only out of pocket expense was $100 for plates up front...and the dealer wound up sending me a refund check for $35! When I walked into the showroom, the dealer had 4 of them in stock...Spa Yellow, Suzuka Blue, Red, and Silver. After less than 10 min there I told the salesman to sign me up for the yellow one. I had done enough research to know I didn't even need to test drive it. Less than 48 hours later, I drove it off the lot. I personally would not want to get locked into a lease for 4 years. I'm one year in, so when mine is up, I'll see what the 2005 has to offer!

PS--Also, living in Buffalo, 12k a year is not easy to use up. I stored it for nearly 4 months the 1st year and put on 9k. This summer I'm gonna start taking many more long road trips. I want to turn it in with 35,999 miles! HaHa

 

hmm don't lease, buy it.

i don't like the feeling of driving a car that i love so much, and having to return it after 3 years or so.

 

i just cant afford to buy it. Im still in college and everything my other option was an rsx type-s
(was gonna buy) and somehow i just started looking at s2000. cant go back to considering an rsx, the s2000 is just amazing but it changed my car buying from a buy to lease. also it saves me money to still take out all the chicks i pick up in a spa yellow one.
