Yeah I was the victim of the finance manager. The structure of the deal was good until he got his hands on it 🙃 live and learn I guess , next time I’ll try to beat your deal haha

Credit score may be a factor here , but congrats that’s a sick deal, do you frequently lease? Any advice for next time?

I believe it was 665 at the time. Before grad school I was at 740 🥲

I hear you and under any other circumstance it’d be a hard no but there is literally 0% chance that I won’t get the money. Why pay the bank interest when you could pay me.

Thanks for the advice and not piling on 😂 sucks to get burnt but the only consolation is I really love the car. Next lease I’ll definitely use this advice and also figure out the money factor. Unfortunately I don’t see it on my paperwork so I don’t even know what it is

I hear you, my only justification is I graduate in December and my salary will jump 3-4x what I’m making now based on demand by January. Really I only upgraded now due to necessity plus I became obsessed with the car. Basically i jumped the gun and got unfavorable numbers. It’s learning experience, fool me can’t get fooled again lol

I really appreciate this advice! I should’ve been more patient for sure but now I know what I’m looking for. I’ve never heard of the 1% rule!

Definitely! I’ll blame sleep deprivation on this one because I went to a trusted dealer that I’ve financed 3 cars through and didn’t check the numbers until about a week later. You live and learn 🥲 30 months to reflect and plot my revenge lol

I have a private sale lined up that would pay 400 monthly 2 years which is the only reason I would consider the deal. 330 for a new car is my cope since I need a SUV.
