Short answer: pick your budget and mileage, start about six months before your current lease ends, compare real quotes from more than one dealer (or let a broker do it), apply through a secure Credit Application, sign electronically, and have the car delivered. Here's each step for Philadelphia-area drivers.
1. Set your budget the right way
Think in two numbers: the monthly payment you're comfortable with and the total you want due at signing. $0 down is available on many models; your exact signing amount is in your quote.
2. Be honest about your miles
City drivers often do fine with 7,500 or 10,000 miles a year. If you commute from the suburbs on the Schuylkill or the Turnpike, 12,000 or more may be cheaper than paying overage later. See how many miles to choose.
3. Start early if your lease is ending
Six months out gives you time to compare returning your car, buying it out or trading into something new. See your lease-end options.
4. Compare more than one quote
Ask every quote for the same four things: monthly payment, term, miles per year and total due at signing. If you already have a dealer quote, send it to me and I'll compare it line by line.
5. Apply securely
Credit details belong in a secure Credit Application, never in a text or email.
6. Sign electronically
Once you're approved and happy with the numbers, you sign the lease paperwork electronically. No finance-office marathon.
7. Get it delivered
I deliver free to your home or office anywhere in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, and I can take back your old lease or trade-in the same day.
