Lease ending in a month...

I'm pretty sure i'll be leasing again, cause i like getting a new car every few years. I really like the Saab 9-3, anyone have one? Other than that i'm considering a WRX, Mustang, BMW 325ci, RSX and the Accord.
 
i'd try to get a G35 coupe if i can afford it. otherwise a legacy GT or the WRX would be a nice car with some money to spare.

if you like sedan's, the altima's ain't bad either. a 03' maxima is also pretty nice.
 
For slightly over 30k, you might want to look into the Acura TL. I liked that car and almost bought it, but I decided I wanted an SUV instead.
 
Stay away from Saab. I leased a new 1996 900S and had tons of problems with it. The engine would make a loud pinging noise whenever I accelerated from a stop and Saab wouldn't own up to the problem. In addtion, I had a gear chip on the timing wheel and was without the car for 2 weeks and the dealer wouldn't supply a loaner despite telling me when I bought the car that they would. In addition, the Alternator went, the cd changer had to be replaced 3 times, the heated seats broke twice...and so on. I've heard stories that it can be hit or miss with a Saab. They can be perfect and never have a problem or they can be like mine. I don't think it's worth the chance. You'll be better off with a G35 or the Lexus ES 300. I have a GS 300 for over 2 years and have not had one single problem.
 
Ilike the the new 9-3 too, but there are tooooooo many problems with it, take a look at saabcentral.com.
There have been several cars bought back by the dealer and some lemon laws issued.
Love the car but maybe GM DNA ia setting in. New Toyota Solara SLE or convertible???
 
I suggest trying to find a program car and stop leasing. It's a good idea to lease if you don't want the committment...(like if you're not staying in the country longer than a couple of years) ...or possibly if you have another vehicle and aren't sure of your financial future. Otherwise you're throwing some serious money away.
 
This may be unpopular, but see if you can't find a much cheaper car that you like. You could bank the rest or invest it or something.

It's just personal opinion, but I can't see spending $30,000 on a car, unless I was a millionaire.
 
If you think you can stand sitting in a sports car for the next 3 years (or whatever term you lease) then the 2005 Mustang is a sweet choice.

well that doesn't really matter if you will be leasing the car. i would go for the saab or the bmw.

and leasing is not a bad deal at all for a car enthusiast.
