Hi,
I found this forum because I'm interested in buying a new Nissan Leaf. I looked at this car a couple of years ago and it was price above $30,000.
Now I am finding dealerships that are cutting the MSRP by $10,000 before tax credits. This is an example of a car in the Houston area - I called to verify and it had been sold the day before. It apparently was new, never owned by a leasing company, so after tax credits, I would be looking at a vehicle price of approximately $14,000.

That seems a little too good to be true. What's the catch here? Are they clearing out 2014 Leafs for 2015? Better Nissan incentives? Am I going to buy a lemon?
As for buy vs. lease, I've always favored buying because I tend to own cars for 10-15yrs and I put about 20,000 miles a year on my cars.
Anyhow, any advice would be appreciated. I am strongly leaning towards buying one of these cars by the end of the month if I can get it for under $24,000.
