I have leased a lot more cars then purchased...

How may people have leased? Payment range?

How many people have purchased?Payment range?

Lease estimates for my mini w/a trade in looks to be about $260 a month (obviously not including tax tag prep etc...) assumin I pay at most msrp.

That number is based on build your own mini then estimate payments...

I'm buying - I tend to drive a lot of miles, and I've only heard that the MINI tends to make you want to drive more...so that nagging 12K mile cap would just be a party-pooper. :smile: My payments (not through MINI financial services) are $460 at just over 6% APR - I financed $24K...lots of expensive options, but I sure do love them!

For me, doesn't make sense to lease this car...

Most people, me included enjoy this car so much we are putting loads of miles on it. So this would be the problem with a lease.

Also, you could probably drive you MCS for a year and unload it for around what you bought it for... so why bother leasing?

Like I always say, i drive like a serial killer, so I can't lease... I just hit 200 miles, I picked it up friday, and it's now only sunday night... of course, i did a little -extra- driving, but not a whole heck of a lot...
