Bro, do you even know wtf you are talking about Bro?

I emailed him and got a similar deal. $6998 + tax for my 2014 S. Lease ends 4/30/2017. Today is 1/31 so I will be skipping the next 3 payments of $257. Great deal. I only have 28600 miles on the car. Someone scratched my front bumper recently and insurance paid me $800. I cashed the check and...

That's really good. My 36 month lease for the same car is ending in April 2017. My residual is $14500. Not sure why it's so much higher than yours. I have 28000 miles, maybe that has something to do with it? Locally, someone just offered me their 2012 Leaf SV with 13,000 miles for $7000 today...

Yes, I would want an EV then but that's not likely to happened.

You won't. But they also don't have expensive batteries that need to be replaced and any shop can work on them. Resell value is also higher. I am just trying to get some feedback as to if buying a used Leaf will make sense economically compared to other low end cars.

How do you think that compares to the cost of just owning a used car like a Corolla?

So if my lease buy out doesn't happen and I buy a 2013 with 20k miles for around $8, do you guys think that's a good idea? What happens when there are issues with the car? I assume most small repair shops won't be able to deal with it since they aren't familiar with EVs? My Leaf has been great...

If i have around 28k miles, should I try hard to get to 36000 between now and April??? Would that help with anything?

the dealership tried to sell me a 2013 with 18k miles for $9800 + fee instead. A lot cheaper than the $144xx lease buy out. I am hoping to get the lease buyout at $7-8k.

I have a lease on a 2014 that's ending in April 2017. I tried calling a few Nissan dealerships to buy out the lease and they told me there's no discounts ($144xx + fees) They told me the discounts are only available on the 2013 model. Is that true?
