- Never lease a car for longer than the 3 yr/36k warranty period. Leasing itself is rarely wise, especially outside of factory warranty.
- I hope you haven't been paying $700 a month (for 48 months) on a Crossfire. That's a ton of money ... Please tell me I read that wrong. :-)

It was a lease takeover... I did not want a 48 or 36 month lease... this was found in an ad on leasebusters...
It was a 48 Month lease... The total of 17 months lease payment left... I have had it for about 9 months.. and the owner gave me $2,500 cash + the security deposit...
so total of $3,200 cash in hand...
take the 17 months I have on the lease times it by $700.
= $11,900 - $3,200 i got = $8,700 over 17 months = $511 tax in...
which would have been great on such a short time lease... when i got the car it only had 13,000 miles on it... and it was an old man who owned it... + I got a chrysler full inspection done to make sure everything was perfect...
IN THE 9 MONTHS I HAVE OWNED THE CAR...
1) HIT AND RUN WHILE AT DINNER FRONT FENDER SMASHED IN...
2) DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OIL PAN FLY'S OFF OLD CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND SMASHES FRONT BUMPER AND GRILL...
3) 2 OF MY 20" TIRES EXPLODE ON THE HIGHWAY...
4) SPEEDING TICKET THAT I HAVE TO GO TO COURT AND MIGHT LOSE MY PERMIT.
5) THIS ISSUE WITH THE "NO START"...
THEY SHOULD MAKE A MOVIE ABOUT THIS CAR... WHERE THE OWNER MOVES TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD TO ESCAPE ITS EVIL CURSE!
