Here Are The BEST Cars To Buy Coming Off Lease - Can You Think Of Any Better?

Late-model used cars have long been the clever shopper’s new vehicle alternative. While hubris keeps some of us from dirtying our driveways with anything that isn’t fresh from the factory, bargain hunters know purchasing an off-lease vehicle is a decent way to save a trunkload of cash and obtain something that can still be considered modern.

It also provides cash-strapped individuals with the ability to buy something normally above their means. With leasing growing in popularity and off-lease vehicles pouring into the market like pigeons on a slice of bread, shoppers can find late-model, low-mileage cars for roughly half the price of a new one. Often, still under warranty. Some deals are better than others, and a recent analysis of 2014 model-year vehicles highlights several models with above-average depreciation rates buyers can easily take advantage of.

The depreciation hit of a lease is a bit of a misunderstanding. The cheap leases that litter the market are factory subsidized (and sometimes dealer too). They are taking the hit with high residuals used to calculate the lease. With the ridiculously high cost of out of warranty repair for the german luxury cars and the low factory subsidized leases you'd have to be an idiot to actually buy, especially used. They may seem like a deal but repair costs can bury you. The subsidized leases are the deal, not the purchase after. A transmission for my 3 year old BMW 750 was $12,000 at 51,000 miles.

You do realize there is fine print on those warranties that make them less than wonderful, right?

Why buy at all? Changing into a new car every 1-3 years is one of the few pleasures of life!
