I can't imagine insurance costs that are about the same as car payments!

I pay about $110 per month for insurance in Los Angeles...while I think that's a lot, I wish that my car payments were that low!

I paid MSRP plus a tiny bit more for the OEM front lip since it was special ordered.

Handed the salesman (Bob Conrad-best Honda salesman in the area) $7000 check.

Financed about $28K.

And pay roughly $550 per month for the next 5 years at a loan rate of 5.5 %.

Insurance is about $1200 a year (I'm 27), but working to get that down more.

Lets see, oh, and yep, I was down in Antarctica for 3 months over the winter working with the National Science Foundation while saving money for the "S".

Was it worth waiting for over 6 months?

-Absolutely!! Everything I could have hoped for and more!!

I leased for 2 reasons.

1. I can't afford 10k down payment or $650 payments.

2. I have been changing cars way too often (Z3 cpe., 911, TT, S2K in 2 years) On a purchase you immediately throw away $2300 in sales tax, leases you only pay tax on the monthly payment.

I put 2K down and pay 399/mo, hopefully in a year or two the value will be high enough that I will be able to sell it for close to my payoff.

Today, there's an ad in the Chicago Tribune, from Grand Honda

36-month lease, $0 down, $395 per month. Or purchase for $30,500.

Just an FYI.
