as for some of the concerns like interest rates, residual value, etc i think all of that is negotiable. obviously, you don't do it unless you understand how it works and have in your mind what a good deal is. but you can get all of that information on the internet.
i could never buy a new, nice car because of the loss you take once it becomes used.
i have a couple alerts out there that will tell me when certain manufacturers are offering good deals on leases. if i see one i like, i may run with it. if i do it, it will have to be a nice car. we'll see if anything works out.
finally, as to the most important point, if the laws in this country were fair, the Church of ClubDirt would be tax free and i'd lease under the company, i mean, church name and have all you guys pay for my car. but who said life was fair?

The interest rates are not negotiable to anywhere near a major savings.
