That lease is costing you $300 a month once you factor the $7k deposit. HORRIBLE IDEA. I understand you don't want a 300 a month car payment but why not look for something used or put that $7000K down on a new model and take the 5 years or 6 to lower your monthly payment. You can always pay it off early.

My payment is $344 and that's for a black sx sedan w/ 6sp manual transmission.

And that's with zero cash down payment and a trade which they gave me $1000 for.

I can't afford $300/month anymore. With this deal, I will be saving $200 a month + better MPG.

What if I can get them down to $75/month?

I understand you cant afford $300 a month. My point was I'm paying $344 on a 5 year loan with basically $1000 down for an SX. You have $7000 down basically and typically it's about $20 per thousand financed.

If you go with an ex, It's cheaper than the SX and then put your $7k down and you should be under $200 a month easily.

Plus a new car you get a better
Finance rate. Just my 2 cents

Putting $7k down ton"rent"'a car is insane.
