    End of Lease Strategies?

    Thanks! I understand why my balance is lower than residual (because I extended). What I don't understand is the buyout. To my knowledge, I am the only person that got almost $13k off balance. Believe me, I'm not complaining, I just don't know the logic as to why some 2013s are only getting...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    When I was dealing with dealer, they did say the "grid" changed from Feb to March. Unfavorable for many. Based on year, original lease term and expiration date I believe. My part of the grid actually got better by $400!!

    End of Lease Strategies?

    Having done both (lease extension and buyout), I honestly don't think the buyout offer is based on residual amount. When I did the lease extentsion, my residual didn't change.

    End of Lease Strategies?

    I'm about to pull the plug and buy my Leaf. I haven't done a battery check on it yet, do you think it's necessary to do before I buy? I haven't lost any bars and have 40k miles. If it's necessary, what's the latest recommendation for getting it done for iPhone? Any OBDI2 recs? I remember hearing...

    End of Lease Strategies?

    Ok so I got more numbers. The buyout amount is $16,629 and the inventive amount is $11,025. That seems really good. Wonder if NMAC is now offering $12k and the dealer is keeping the difference. Anyone get an incentive of $11k on a 2013?
