Re: S2000 OWNERS!!! Help me out.
 

That's odd cause I see my rate going through the roof. I quoted myself on
Geico and it was outragous. Like 280 for 98 civic ex. I pay only 165 now
with good student and im about to lose it so it will be 210. I'm finding
that I can't get insurance cause of 2 accidents that were not my fault but
they don't like to see my name involved in a claim for some reason. Plus I
just got reported 3 months ago as 30 days late for a mess-up on my quad loan
that Suzuki did and they won't remove it. Dropped my credit score 100
points. I'm so mad. I almost was able to buy a house and now I can't even
insure my car! Frustrating.

Re: S2000 OWNERS!!! Help me out.
 

All I know is that my roomate bought an RSX Type S and his payment was 512
after refinancing negative equity at 2.9%. He didn't like the payment so he
went back the next day andleased it for 400/mo for 4 years with the residual
at like 11000 whick will be considerably more than it is worth. He could
have sold it and made money.

I do want to learn more so I will read the article you gave me. Thank You

Ryan, I think you're on the right track, but misinterpreted something.
The residual payment, which you correctly surmised is considerably more
that the car is worth, is what he will have to *pay*, not what he will
get. There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch (TANSTAAFL).

Leasing can be beneficial to people in particular circumstances, but
generally costs more money to achieve the same end.
