Lease busters - your experience
Countdown has started for the next Saintor-mobile; less than 90 days.
Canadian market is different than US; 36 mo leases are less common (and more expensive).
Not interested in 48+ months leases. I am ok to pay more for a lease, but part of that interest is shorter term. Some people think it is easy to resell a 25K used cars, not my experience at all so I don't care.
There are some sites with discounted, sub 36 months lease take over as https://www.leasebusters.com/en/default.asp
I am just assessing the risks, I guess. Any experience here, good or bad?

Dont know how lease works in Canada or the typical lease price for certain cars, so i dont know.
But 8500CAD/year in the US will get you a fully loaded 330i or a 70% loaded 340i or C class or IS350, so yah that level of cars.
Dont know Leasebuster.com but in the US we use swaplease.com

2019 Acura TLX A-Spec
1. It’s your favourite car
2. You love the transmission
3. Still has a V6
4. Has plenty of engine sounds pumped into the cabin (loud engines are a Saintor must)
5. You won’t have to leave AZ, and you’ve already been banned from at least one BMW forum
6. Best fuel economy (when not in Sport+ mode)

Assuming you wan the G20 M340i, with your budget, you are not gonna be anywhere close to one at least for the 1st year in the US. 330i yes.
Since Canada car prices are generally higher, so i would guess only G20 330i maybe.

I loved my TLX but I never buy twice the same platform.. Occasions as in Leasebuster are appealing as it can be a bridge. There is nothing new (early 2019 models) that I find compelling . Anyway, 'new' 36 months leases are not that common in Canada at decent price and I saw quite a few interesting 18-30 months lease takeover , including a 2018 S4 and Caddy CTS V-Sport (not CTS-V).

You don't need to retaliate.
All thread participants need to act like well-adjusted adults, or there will be a lockdown.
