Not sure I understand the question,but here goes.

If I could afford to pay cash, I probably wouldn't be as concerned about the price. MSRP is about as good as it gets.

Since most of us here financed. MSRP is what we hope to pay. It's out there. You just have to look. As it get closer to top down weather, it will be more difficult to find. Anything over that would be what you can live with paying.

I would never lease.

You can, but how much down, what's the residual, how many miles and for how long? It's very tough to get out of a lease without a financial hit. Remember when you lease you DON'T own the car and unless you plan on buying it at the end of the lease, don't modify it too much. Also plan on paying for a new set of original tires when you turn it in, plus any damage other than normal "wear and tear" If you're going to buy it, you've got the balloon to make. My office leases me a car as a perk and I like to change every 2 years or so but IMHO I wouldn't lease a toy.
Hope this helps

I'd buy. March 1, 2000 I bought mine at MSRP + a free CD changer, took delivery in May. Try not to pay over MSRP. It's been proven many times over that this car can be had for MSRP. Good luck!
