How many leasing a new SI?

I am going to the honda dealership later today when my brother gets off of work and I was wondering how many of you are leasing the new si and how much are your monthly payments? I am seriously looking into getting one and also would like to know how do you like it? Any informations is greatly appreciated.

Thats the thing I am getting tired of spending all my money on cars and instead of my future. All I want right now is a stock car that is under warrenty if anything goes wrong.

You definetly have your priorities straight...props to you. [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG] I'm doing pretty much the same thing by only buying small mods while saving up for my future, and a car that I really want after college.

If you're looking for just a way to get around, why not go for a lease on an LX manual coupe? IMO that's your best bet, unless you want the hatch.

I bought mine. Traded in my 2K1 Ex coupe, no money down, 1.9% APR, and 339 month for 48 months. And it was well worth it too. I love my SI. It is so much more comfortable, faster, and handles better and its still stock. Oh and I got a 02 left over model.

I was also thinking about trading my 2k1 lx for a new SI, there's a dealer close to me selling it for 15,995 and he will throw in a dvd player in it for free, plus 1.9% APR.

$300 month will get you a car that $15,000 out the door for 60 months. Which means $15,000 has to include the car, tax, title, and intrest. So you would have to have the price of the car around $12,500. Without putting money down your not going to find a dealer that is willing to sell you one that cheap. I pay 339 a month, but that a 48 month loan.

It depends on how long you want to LEASE the car for and the residual. Seeing that they aren't selling well, I would imagine the residual is going to be low and make your payments higher.

Anyhow, don't plan on leasing it for under $300 a month.

You can get a BMW 325i for $299 a month on special now...lease.

I would do that if you want to pay $300 a month!
