Q: why are you spending large $ to buy out the lease? even if u buy it out you are still paying the interest over the life of original contract period. i'd just keep paying the monthly and utilize your large chunk of cash to build asset (stock, CD, whatever)!!

 

since you need new tires, i think that you ought to check out some local cars and see what they did with their wheels...
when you are getting new tires is the best time to get new wheels!

imo, the best mod for the money is getting the car aligned for aggressive street driving!

my new tires, wheels, (and you can see my corners, side markers and drilled and slotted rotors):

 

thx for the info! most of it doesn't mean a lot to the newbie here, but i appreciate it nonetheless.

i like the look of bigger wheels/tires, but i could've had that on a 2004. which brings me to the reason that i bought out the lease . . .which i'm still in the process of doing. what a friggin' hassle, btw. chase has not been easy to deal with. anyway, i paid 19900. i feel ok about that price. i think i could've gotten a lower price if i were to go out and look for a used one, but that's too much of a hassle.

i had made up my mind to walk away from this car, and get an '04. i made a deposit on with my dealer to find me a sebring silver in my area. but he only had a red interior (i don't want it). so, i'm gonna keep mine for another year, then see what the '05 is like.

i still love my car, and i keeping it through the summer is just easier than going to california to get the sebring/black.

and for those interested, i think it was suggested to keep leasing my existing car. that was my first choice, but chase doesn't allow it.
