Default leasebusters

Anyone have experience with them? It sounds like another autotrader for leases. But they charge a ridiculous price of $295 for the listing until it is "moved" to the new owner.

What do you all think!? Any other alternatives?

using it to ditch your echo?

how many more months of payments left?

maybe just buy it back now and sell it used?

any chance you can just work out a deal w/ ur dealer into eating up the rest of the lease as part of the trade-in? (a friend did that -- mind you he only had 4 payments left)...

I have 1 more year to go I think - the payments are low, like $215 / month.

I have yet contacted my dealer, I will do that tomorrow and see what my options are.

leasebusters works well
i had a friend who bought a new 330ci on a lease and then decided the payments were outrageous after a year later and put it on leasebusters. i thought he would never get rid of it but within 2 weeks it was gone

damn $215 / month?

i guess it's on par seeing the yaris is $218 / month, but for $30 / month more you can get a matrix ... nearly double in cargo room

i used lease busters before and they got rid of my car. I'd say it works quite well even though it seems really expensive. Mine was in ther efor a while though cause Spec-V sentras suck and no one wants them lol, so i think i would have paid more to have it in autotrader for the same period of time but they it did go and that's all i care about lol. i was out 2 years early.
