Now does it really if you can write off your lease payments for taxes? In the past, my CPA has let me write off my entire lease payment for a BMW I once leased but never kept (it had too many problems). Now if I did buy it (given it was problem free) then I would have come up a head since my lease payments were essentially not thrown away but rather used effectively.
I also know of several people on rennlist that have written off lease payments for 997s and Cayennes.


Don't hate the systems guys, know how to play it.

But as said before, we don't know your financial situation so all of these advices are basically thrown up into the air not knowing which applies to you.

edit : If you do plan on keeping extremely low miles on the car then I would suggesting buying an 05 at the begining of 06 during the 05 fire sale.
