Isn't this 100 a month battery lease going to be a boom for people buying used. If you bought new, then you lost alot of money, but wont there be a huge market for 5 year old leafs that havent had the battery replaced yet. if you can pick up a 5 year old leaf for 5/6k, and then pay 100 a month for a new pack, it will almost be like driving for free. you will be saving at least 100 a month on gas which cancels out the 100 you're paying. you only paid 5/6k for the leaf, so you will be able to get that back when you sell. The car is virtually free.
kbb recently said the 2013 will hold 35% of sticker after 3 years,before the 7500. the S is 28k. thats 10k after 3 year. At 5 years we should be at about 5/6k. There is definitely going to be a floor to what a leaf sells at used no matter how old it gets. I dont think you will ever see a leaf sell for 3k like a used small car thats 8 to 10 years old. as long as someone can drive it for 100 a month, it will bottom out around 5k i would assume. anyone disagree.
