RE: 2008 February lease rate on A8L is nuts!
Rule number one for anyone leasing, NEVER put any money down.
All you are doing is paying up front for your monthly payments.
It's as if I was renting you a house for 12 months at $1,000.00 per month ($12,000.00 for the year)andtold you that if you put down $6,000.00, I'll make the rent $500.00/month.
The whole idea about leasing is to take out as little money as possible and just pay for what you are using on a monthly basis. Keep your money in the bank or invested.
Not to mention that any money you put down will disappear if your car gets totaled in an accident.
You could drive it off the lot after putting $10k down on the lease, get whacked by a semi and if the car is totaled by insurance, your $10k you will never see again.
