Message: [QUOTE="Steve85, post: 5353037, member: 875"] Since we have some finance types/smart analytical folks here, I thought I’d post this scenario to get thoughts from anyone inclined to reply: My lease on a ‘22 Subaru Legacy sedan is up next month. residual value $22K (actually slightly below market value) and I’m deciding whether to buy it or lease another car. I only drive < 10-12K/yr so within most lease parameters but I can’t help but think of the inevitable maintenance/repair costs that I would pay with a purchase as compared to another leased car. also throw in the mix that Subaru has discontinued the Legacy sedan after ‘25 model year and I worry about parts availability, maybe not initially but in the coming years. is this a legitimate concern? I appreciate anyone who wants to give their opinion. thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
