Leasing vs Buying a Subaru
Whether you are looking to cruise around Utica, Rome, and New Hartford, New York, in a new Subaru Crosstrek, Outback, or Impreza, we are here to set you up with a deal that works best for you.
Our finance team at Subaru of Utica works with each driver to create a payment plan that fits best for their individual needs.
First, it is important to understand what the difference is between buying vs. leasing a car. When you buy a car, you are purchasing the vehicle to own. You can pay for the car in full, or finance the vehicle—which lets you pay for some of it upfront with a down payment, and then borrow the rest from a lender so that you can pay for the vehicle through comfortable monthly payments.
With a lease, you won’t be buying the car to “own” it, but rather to “borrow” it for a few years from the dealership. During that time, you can drive it for the number of miles agreed upon in your lease terms and enjoy all the benefits of driving a new car. Then, when your lease comes to an end—which lasts for just a couple of years—you will be able to buy or lease another vehicle.
If you like the idea of driving a car for many years, you certainly want to consider buying a new Subaru. When you buy your car, you will get to own the car and drive it for as many miles, and for as long, as you’d like.
Plus, with your Subaru, you will have a vehicle that is set to provide great performance now and in the future, since these cars are designed to stay on the road for years to come. Once you own it and have paid off your loan, you won’t have to keep make payments on your vehicle, either. This will free up some finances for you while still having a reliable mode of transportation.
You can also get any Subaru accessories you want, from a bike rack for your Outback to all-weather floor mats for your Ascent, when you choose to buy your Subaru.
As you can see, there are benefits to both financing options. In the end, the choice between buying vs. leasing a Subaru will come down to your individual preferences and lifestyle.
