Lease Your Next Car in Boise | Leasing vs Buying

So, you're interested in a new car, but aren't real sure whether you want to buy or lease. We can help you decide which option is best for you.

Leasing vs Buying a Car

Leasing Benefits - Why Lease?

  • 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 Subaru with little or no money down, so there is less out of pocket expense at the onset.


  • Have more options! When you lease, you have options available at lease-end. You can choose to lease another Subaru, or purchase the one you have grown to love at a much lower, no hassle pre-determined price. Or, you can 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.

  • Little to zero vehicle maintenance! Many people lease for the length of time the manufacturer's warranty is in effect. This way, if any repairs are needed they are typically covered by the warranty. Subaru offers a standard 3-year/36,000 mile limited warranty, and additionally offers coverage for the powertrain (engine, transmission, drivetrain) for 5 years or 60,000 miles.

    Finance Benefits - Why Buy?

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


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

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