My Take: Looks like the VW CCs are falling under the “lease-to-buy” category now. I would skip the Sport model since the residual and money factor are still a bit too weak for my taste. Instead, opt for the Luxury, VR6 or VR6 4motion models if you don’t mind buying them at lease end. If you plan to lease and return, I recommend skipping the CCs altogether and going with something like an Accord.

My Take: Obviously no point leasing through Volvo here. Just look at the money factor! 12.648% APR! Are you kidding me? Here’s a quick compare and contrast between what payments would be through Volvo and what they would be through on of 
My Take: Yickes. These lease rates don’t look very good. I wasn’t even going to bother posting them, but I figure someone out there would appreciate knowing that leasing a Porsche in June is not a very good idea. Alternatively, you should probably try checking with your bank to see if they offer a decent lease on this car. If your bank doesn’t lease cars, check out 
My Take: I’m not a big fan of the 7-Series’ residual value, but the MF is not half bad. Like the Audi A8, I still only recommend leasing this ride only if you have a way of writing the payment off OR you have a money tree or two planted in your backyard. If you do have the latter, please invite me over for a backyard BBQ one of these days. ^_^
My Take: I don’t want to say too much about the A8 this month other than “just buy the car”. Leasing doesn’t make much sense unless you own a business and can write-off all your payments.
My Take: The IS250 Auto and AWD are probably the two best leases in the IS line up. Money factor is low and residual is high. Not only does this make a good lease, it also makes it good enough to buy out at lease end. The ISF and IS350 are slightly less desireable due to the low residual values and high money factors. The IS250 Auto & AWD are a VERY good deal month actually. Invoice price (or maybe slightly lower) should be attainable in certain areas with solid competition. It certainly doesn’t carry the “LEASE ME NOW” tag that the MB C350 has had for the past few months, but it is certainly not too far off. Personally, I would still pony up for the IS350 over the IS250. The MF isn’t all that bad at .00110. The residual does suck a bit, but nothing a lower yearly mileage allowance can’t fix.
