I agree, definitely don't go for the lease option. Either take the $7000 and get a used car. Or go new and with $7000 down you should be able to get an EX for about 180-200 a month depending on your interest rate. This would be financed over 60 months rather than your lease at 36 but after 60 months you own something.

Thanks guys! Will definitely purchase my Kia! Plus I think my CRV is actually worth more, so I should get a reasonable offer. I hope to be under $200. I'll keep you posted.

Edmunds.com has the top price on a trade-in for a 2008 CRV to be 16000, but depending on your mileage it might be worth more. Detail the shit out of that, get a good wax on it and then go in and try and renegotiate. Cars are more valuable when they're shiny
