Amount due at signing or “drive off” cost includes all charges that require up-front payment in cash, such as taxes, official fees, deposits & first month’s payment. The down payment amount is the only part that reduces capitalized cost (amount financed), which in turn reduces the monthly payment amount.

If you move to another state with your leased vehicle, immediately notify your lease company of your move. This is not only to change your billing address and the car’s “garaged” address, but more importantly because sales tax rates may be different between your old location and your new one, the tax portion of your monthly payment may change — up or down.
You pay for that extra depreciation at a per-mile rate that varies by car company and vehicle model. Lower priced cars are charged at $0.15 per mile. Mid-priced cars are charged at $0.20 per mile and higher-priced cars at $0.25 or higher. Some luxury models charge $0.30 per mile. These rates are specified in your lease contract and are not negotiable.

It depends. If your current car is paid for, you can certainly use it as a trade-in. Just be sure you know its fair trade-in value, and that the dealer gives you full credit when your lease payments are calculated. If you still owe on your car, you will want to get the “payoff” from your finance company and compare that amount to the trade-in value of the car. If the trade-in value is higher, you have “trade equity.” Read more
