SHOULD YOU BUY OR LEASE YOUR NEXT TOYOTA?

So you're interested in a new Toyota, but aren't sure whether you want to buy or lease. Let us help you decide which option is best for you.

LEASING BENEFITS:

IS LEASING A TOYOTA RIGHT FOR YOU?

Lower monthly payment.
Monthly lease payments are typically lower than monthly loan payments because lessees only pay for the use of the car, not the entire vehicle. Many times you can lease a ToyotaĀ with little or no money down, so there is also less out of pocket expense at the onset!

Upgrade your car more often.
If having the latest technology or safety (or styles or trends) is important to you, a lease on a vehicle might be for you!

Have more options.
When you lease, you have options available at lease-end:Ā You can choose to lease another Toyota or purchase the one you have grown to love at a much lower, no hassle pre-determined price. You can even turn it in and walk away.

Without the hassle of selling or trading in your old car (many times for less than you owe), you can enjoy a simple process that allows you to drive a new vehicle every few years!

Many people lease for the length of time the manufacturer's warranty is in effect. This way, if any repairsĀ are needed they are typically covered by the warranty. Toyota offers a standard 36-month/36,000-mile limited warranty coverage,Ā and additionally offers coverage for the powertrain (engine, transmission, seatbelts and airbags, front and rear-wheel drive systems) for 60-months/60,000-miles.

FINANCING BENEFITS:

SHOULD YOU FINANCE YOUR NEXT TOYOTA INSTEAD?

Ownership.
At the end of your loan, you own your car with no payments. You can love your Toyota for as long as you want and it's all yours.

No Limits.
Drive an unlimited amount of miles with no penalty - if you typically drive your car more than 12,000 - 15,000 miles per year this option is preferable.

Personalize.
If you like to customize, modify, or repaint, then buying a Toyota is probably your best choice.

True Love.
Do you get emotionally attached to your vehicles?Ā (Come on, we know some of you do!)Ā You may prefer to purchase to avoid the separation anxiety.

Asset Retention.
When you buy, you retain the benefit of trade-in or resale value. However, since a car is a depreciating asset, you may find yourself a bit upside down if you choose to trade unless your loan has been fully paid off by that point.
