Q: I'm interested in buying an Acura TL. I'm getting a lease offer for $299 with $3500 downpayment (for 10K miles). Do you think I should 1) buy it? 2) bargain? if so, whats a good price for 15K miles? 3) wait for Acura TL 2009? Any help appreciated. thanks.

A: never lease when you can buy...unless you like to lose a lot of money..leasing gives you nothing. Buying gives you good credit (providing you pay the car off in time) good standing at the dealership and a car. So buy the car, forget the lease.
