looking to lease a car for around 200.00-250.00 a month. I’m getting real sick of the buick… just too “bland” and it’s slow as balls. I’m open to suggestions, want a manual trans and a nice all around car (some getup and go would be nice too) so what ya got? ---

250 on lease is 18-19k with no money down… you can’t get shit, maybe you could get an srt with a grand or few down (caliber) ---

What kind of money down are you looking to drop? It makes a HUGE difference with leases since you arent technically financing the entire price of the car I dropped 3k on my GP (just SE) and my payments were/are stupid cheap. What about a Scion or something like that? New Eclipse, SRT-4, GTP, Cobalt SS…just go shop around at a few dealers and see what lease offers they can get you. ---

> [@Jon](#): > > 2004 GTO,find one with low miles. > > Best bang for your buck. :tup: something that is less then 15k with about 2-3k down will get you about 250-275 a month on payments… given a 60month loan at good interest, For my 2003 Camary I pay 262 for 60 months and I paid only 1500 down @ 7.74% which is about 15700 which mind you interest is over 2k… early pay off is the best :tup: and I plan on having it paid off by next summer why not just get a loan for an older already modded car :gotme: or you looking for some more realiabe I take it… ---

GTPs are alot of money, i would say scion tho, i test drove one, pretty nice for the money. Also you have to factor in your credit, if it isnt too good, the payments will be higher. ---

what are the scions going for? I was primarily looking for a lease as I’m not one to keep a car around longer than a year or two. Although, if I can get a used car cheep… that may be worth looking into. I’m just sick of having the buick lol 😃 I tried looking online for srt-4’s but can’t seem to find any (even thru dodge’s website) what do the standard (non-STi’s) WRX’s go for? ---

wrx will be like 300+ on a lease… for what you are looking for is like 20k max sticker If you are looking used then i think its about 15k-ish to finance for 200-250/mo. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/leasing-a-quick-car-make-a-suggestion/15659.md?page=2)
