Cheapest Car Leases for June

June 16, 2009

honda-civic-si We’re always on the lookout for the best car lease deals, and have found some good ones for June 2009. These deals are subsidized (“subvented”) by the car manufacturers and are available through their dealers.

Leases are especially attractive to people who need to finance a car at the lowest possible monthly payment. Leases are always less expensive than a similar loan. Why? Because you pay for only part of the car’s value — the part you “use up” — and you return the car (with it’s remaining unused value) back to the lease company. It sounds like renting, but it is not.

If you don’t understand how car leasing works, you are advised to do so before you lease. Leasing is a little more complicated than buying with a loan, which makes it easier to make mistakes if you don’t know what you are doing.
