When looking for a new car there are many things to consider and the decision-making process can be tough. One question you may have is whether you should buy or lease. There are advantages to buying, but leasing a Toyota may be more beneficial and fitting for your lifestyle. Read more to find out if leasing is the best way to go when shopping for a new Toyota in Corpus Christi, TX.

Less Required Upfront.

Some things to consider when you're looking around for a new Toyota are your budget and what you are willing or able to spend on a down payment. Keep in mind that having a tight budget doesn't mean you can't afford to drive a nice car! Leasing usually requires less money up front, making it easier for you to get your hands on the wheel of that shiny new Camry or Tundra you've been eyeing.

Lower Monthly Payments.

When you finance a car in Corpus Christi, your monthly payments are generated based on the entire value of the car. When you lease, the payments are generated on the depreciation of the car during the time it is in your possession. This makes the lease payment for a model considerably lower than it would be otherwise. Since you are saving on your monthly payment, you may even be able to afford a nicer Toyota model.

Save on Repairs, Too!

Lease terms are generally around two to three years long, meaning you have a car in its best years. As long as you take your leased Toyota to get routine oil changes and tire rotations, you're likely to have minimal issues. Should you start to experience any mechanical problems, most new cars come with warranties that cover that majority of repair costs.

Enjoy the Ride, Then Change It Up!

Leasing offers you the chance to drive the latest and greatest cars more frequently with no hassle. You'll never have to deal with a stressful trade-in process. When your car lease ends, you can turn in your keys and grab another pair.

Car buying is a big commitment, so if you aren't completely ready to take the plunge, leasing is a great way to test the waters. It's also helpful to students or those with hectic schedules. If you are unsure of where you may end up or where your needs will be within the next few years, leasing helps fulfill your needs in the moment while leaving the future open.

These are just a few of the many advantages of leasing a new car, truck or SUV. For more information on our leasing programs, or to test drive one of our many new Toyota models, visit Mike Shaw Toyota today!
