You lose a bit of value, especially as you add miles, but it's no where near as dramatic. Especially not for lower-value cars, that MSRP at <=20k. You might lose 5-10k after year one, but I still think 10k in that short a time frame is a bit of a stretch | |

But it may be outweighed by the fun you get from the car. Leasing does put limits on your driving thought, or you will be penalized when the lease if over. I bought two used (off-lease) BMWs. I sometimes think I should/could have done it a lot earlier in life. | |
