Or should I post them here?
I am making sure I understand this correctly. I have a co-worker who purchased a 02 Mitsubishi Lancer with 51,000 miles for $11,200. I told her not to purchase a car unless has a person with her. She ended up not listening and purchased the car anyway. I notice the BB value is around $8000 (excellent condition) and of course BB value is a little bit behind. Due to bad credit she has a 15% interest rate on the car and paying $400 a month. Not only did she not get GAP insurance. She ended up getting a 6 month warranty. Is there a grace period you can return a car to the dealership depending on their policy?
Thanks
Backing Out Of A Deal?
The answer to your question is probably no - California has a used car option to return a car, but it costs money and has restrictions. New Jersey has a one day period to review unsigned lease docs. Some state and FTC links are in the What's the cooling off period to back out of my car purchase? Guide and be sure to look at the Unwinding the Deal link in the blog.
You may get some suggestions in the My Salesperson Misled Me discussion about how to unwind this deal.
I recently had the carb overhauled, and since then, Gas has been getting in the oil pan and I've had to change oil twice so far... and cannot drive Van for fear of damaging the engine. I took carb back to mechanic and he 're-adjusted' etc. and said it should be ok now... but it isn't. What has happened and what is cure for such problem? This is a terrible thing and within a few minutes, could completely ruin a perfectly good engine... and, after fixing this, (if fixable) can it ever randomly happen again? Thanks to anyone that can help.

My daughter told me to turn the key on and off 3 times without starting it and then if it's something in the elecrical system? A sensor maybe? Then it will come across where the odometer is or across the radio screen? Is this true, can I find out what is wrong by doing this?
One day I was really mad and I sped up and slowed down a couple times on the highway, yeah real dumb thing to do for sure. But all of a sudden after a few hours of drivin, I got lost had to stop and try to find my way.
Then I lost power. The accelator seemed to not do anything, like the transmission gears weren't shifting. I couldn't get no faster than 40 mph. and I was on a highway, thank God the traffic was slow due to the time of day, anyways I barely made it back home. My husband doesn't know a thing about these types of vehicles.
I really really would appreciate some guidance here if you have time!!! PLEASE!!!
Good luck!

thanks for any help.
Does GMAC have a fixed APR on their leases-i am looking at 48 mo w/15 miles again. Looking at the 08 Chevy Impala or another Cadillac CTS via GMAC.
or the Dodge Charger SXT, Kelly BB has New Car Value at 25K not sure who their leasing goes through-but they have a 2000 lease money back that i'll use for down payment.
Where can I find out what cars are in high demand?
Are the leasing APR based on your credit score?

Hope this helps!
1. I got a lease in May 2006 on a 2006 Acura RSX Type-S. I put $1300 down and my payments are $305 per month (including tax) for 36 months with 15k miles per year. Was this a good deal?
2. I have not put as many miles on my car as I thought I would be. Currently I have just under 24,000 miles. I will prob only be driving 750 miles per month going forward which will put me severley under the 45k I pay for. How does this affect me when my lease is up? Will I be able to get this equity out of the car being that it will be worth more than what it would be if I used all 45k? Or will I just lose this all since it's leased? Please explain how that will work.
I assume this varies with the "price of money" - i.e. prevailing interest rates.
thanks

For example, do I still have to pay the gas guzzler tax listed? How are taxes handled? Destination charges...etc?
I am having trouble locating any rules on buying a demo car. Any help would be appreciated.
There seem to be a lot of demo posts in the My Salesperson Misled Me discussion.
Thanks!

Am I the only one with this experience lately???

my question is that since I already signed the lease for this amount, isn't it all said and done now. Or do I still need to get a number to keep my van at this price. I would think that if it was submitted without the control number, and I signed the lease I should be in the clear now, and not have to pay the extra 1600 price difference. Any advice I can get would be great. Thank you very much.
Matt.
Here's one example:

You can find the other make/model leasing discussions by using the Browse by Vehicle search box on the right sidebar.
But there are other expensive things to break on new cars now besides the engine and transmission that an extended warranty would cover.
We have several Extended Warranty discussions over in SUVs for specific make/models and they seem to work for the owners (and potential owners), although we do wind up referring people to the broader Extended Warranties discussion in Smart Shopper. That one is especially good for non OEM extended warranties too.
I am in the process to buy a car to be used as a company/private car. I am now facing a very difficult choice (at least for me!) and I would like to have as many inputs as possible so I can make the right/better choice. I need to pick between the 2 following cars:
Car 1: Suzuki SX4 Crossover 2008 – Brand new!
• 2WD
• Normally loaded
• 3 Yrs warranty unlimited miles/km
• $16,000.00
Car 2: Honda CRV 2005 – Used car in very good condition
• 4WD
• Fully Loaded (Leather seats, CD Changer and the whole nine yard!)
• Sun roof
• NO WARRANTY WHAT SO EVER
• $15,500.00
As you see the price is pretty much the same and this is why I need your help.
What would you do and why?
Thanks a lot for your answers.

I'm wondering if there is a consensus on the right strategy for getting the best lease deals. I have a detailed quote from one dealer and want to shop around other local dealers to see if it can be beat (there is a lot of competition in my region). Would I be better off giving the new dealer all of my specifics and see if he can beat it, or should I make him work to come up with his own numbers?
Thanks
