Buy i brought a 2007 s class mercedes for only 27k got a good deal cause the owner needed the cash, there are good deals out there if you are willing to look.
A 2007 s550 for $27k has over 100,000 miles.
That's retarded on so many levels.
Leasing isn't a waste of money if you plan on keeping a car for 2-3 years.
Buying a car makes sense if you're gonna drive for minimum 5 years.
Btw...having a car is NOT AN INVESTMENT. Why do people think that is beyond me.
Investments are things that you make with end goal of making more money than you put in after a set period of time.
Hope this helps...
Btw check out sites like swapalese.com. Decent deals on there for people who want to get rid of leases & sometimes you don't need money down.
