Why should you throw > that much money away? I lease my cars for no more than 3 years each for a number of reasons. The latest one is a 1996 900SET and we had little trouble talking the dealer into the price we wanted. They manipulated the residual value, went with a different lender and we drove it away. The car is delightful (not my first SAAB turbo, btw) but I'll be happy to give it back next year and get a new one to play with. Kal
