leasing has it's good and bad points, personally the way I can get really bored with a car after 3 years is more or less why I can find it appealing. but since your still in the US, I'm sure if you don't get screwed over and the dealership works with you to get you out of it, there are Tonnnes of cars in the US that will fit all your needs and colour choices. Just make sure you get a CarFax with the car as you don't want a wreak, or a salvage title looming over your head when problems arise.
