Hi, Guest
I've done the homework on a Subaru SE Sedan... 450/mo lease over 2 years with 10% down... it worked out to just over $11,000 for the two years.
At that point, just trade it in and get another. Over 4 years at the same game and always well within warranty, you're still ahead of a 5-year finance plan on the car by far.
As much as I love owning the Focus (and I'm not saying I'll give it up), brand new and zero headaches on a daily driver would allow me to do really evil things with the Focus... things I couldn't attempt right now.
