    Does anyone have any advice on whether its better to buy or lease a car. I need a new car and I'm not sure in which direction I should go. My parents will help me with financing but money is still a very big issue. Can anyone tell me the pros and cons of each? I've heard bad stories of people who leased cars but right now it seems more affordable to me. I'm pretty much a typical girl when it comes to cars. Can someone help me?

    I'm no expert either. But I have a link for you to get started.

    I think I also have a link about the pros and cons of leasing a car. I will look for it and let you know later.

    Hope it will help you.

    If money is the biggest issue, leasing is not good. I bought my car because it lets me keep it a longtime. It's now paid off, and I can keep it forever(in theory). If I had a lease, I'd have to turn the car in in a couple years, then have to make a new purchase.
