Default Leasing the tC

Does anybody lease the tC??? I've never heard of anybody actually leasing, it seems that EVERYONE purchases it. Anybody around here leasing a tC? If so, what are the terms? How much down? Monthly payments? Duration?

I have a feeling that nobody is going to respond. Maybe because those who are on this site are tuners and tuners can't touch a leased car.

I don't know any personally that has leased but i have seen a few on www.leasetrader.com. Where you can take over someone else's lease. They explain monthly payment, how much is left in the lease and mileage. Just checked this site out. www.leasecompare.com might help

The lease isn't too good on a tC. It's only a savings of about 20-40 bucks/month.

And yes, tuners can touch a lease car. They just have to either trade it, sell it, or buy it when the lease is due or near due, as opposed to turning it in.

That a pretty expensive lease. Say it's 250.00/month for 3 years...thats 17000.00 you're paying after it's paid off and you have to return the car...?

Honestly 8 grand down for any lease seems excessive...
