Hey everyone! My mother-in-law is looking to lease a new vehicle here in Orlando, FL, and we’re trying to find the best deal possible.
Our budget/requirements:
Under $300/month
$0 down (only willing to pay the first month’s payment at signing)
7,500 or 10,000 miles per year
Open to any make or model (SUV or sedan—we’re not picky)
We honestly don’t even care what color it is 😂. We’re just trying to stay within our budget.
Does anyone know of any dealerships or lease brokers in the Orlando/Central Florida area with deals that fit these numbers? If you’ve recently signed a lease around this price, I’d love to hear what you got. Thanks in advance!

Hi all! I have a 2016 GLE 350 base model. In basically perfect condition with no accidents. 66,100 miles on the odometer. I imagine I have around 5k negative equity (owe 19k, figure it’s worth 14k?). I’m curious if there’s a ‘best option’ to move out of this car and into something newer (company requires my vehicle be less than 10 years old so I continue to get the reimbursement).

Lease budget would up to $750 approx. and I’d like to put minimal, if anything, down. A truck would be cool, a Jetta would be cool, an e400 would be cool, I’m truly open to just about anything with apple car play. Also like to break up this negative equity over a lease term.

I drive about 7-10k miles per year. Houston, Texas area.

Let me preface this that I know cash down is highly frowned upon with this group.

Looking for a sanity check on a lease offer before I sign. Vehicle: 2026 Honda Pilot Touring AWD MSRP: $53,045 Selling Price: $49,295 ($3,250 dealer discount + $500 Honda rebate) Lease: 36 months / 12,000 miles per year Money Factor: 0.00200 Residual: $33,418.35 (63%) No cap cost reduction ($0 down option) Dealer removed the Pro Package (VIN etching/wheel locks) Doc fee: $85 DMV/registration: $1,257 Disposition fee: $350 Monthly payment quoted: $735/mo with $0 down Credit score: ~800 (top tier)

Does this look like a competitive deal for California? Anything you'd push back on before signing?

Curious what to expect on pricing and staying under $600 a month. Is this reasonable/achievable?

Interested in effective monthly payment below $600

Zero due at signing

Been trying to find good lease deals in Colorado(Denver ) for hyundai ioniq 5 SEL AWD or Limited AWD or Ioniq 9.

Also Kia ev6/ev9 wind or higher

All lease deals I see are crazy high and also high down payments

My mother is looking for a car for my brother to take to college, as he is commuting. I decided to go with my friend to help her look for possible deals on a lease. I went to a BMW dealership and discussed possible options. My family has never owned a BMW, but my friend who I went with currently owns one. The salesperson who we were speaking to gave us the rates for both loyalty and non-loyalty. While looking at the car that we would possibly lease, she suggested that we could provide an insurance statement with my mother’s name and my friend’s BMW to get the loyalty rate. From what I understood, she said that we could possibly photoshop an insurance card to show that we have a BMW already. Does anyone have experience with something like this? My mother is concerned with any possible repercussions from doing something like this. Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Are the July Cadillac Lease deals that much worse than June? I started looking at the end of June and it seems like the deals are worse now that we are in July…

Opinions on the Polestar 3/4 leases that were just announced? As they are exiting the US Market, and will offer full warranty during the lease period, it seems like a reasonable deal?
