The Best Cars for you money

Hi guys, hope y'all have a wonderful evening. Just want to share an article with everyone.
This article is provided by CNN Money.com
And that makes me wonder why the lease on a MINI is still not attractive as the car itself since it retains 77% of its original value after 5 years. And the lease is all about depreciation.

I imagine leasing the MINI is not as favorable since they sell all the Mini Coopers which are manufactured.

The Mini enthusiast is a captive market, we will lease or buy at near MSRP and in some areas more that MSRP to own our wonderful cars.

I thought the resale was more like 55-60 percent of value, interesting to see it higher.

You might be able to get a better MINI lease via a private leasing company, does anyone know?
