MY MISSION IS TO HELP YOU MAKE SMART CHOICES

• I HELP THE BEST PEOPLE, TO DRIVE THE BEST CARS, THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE.

• The “BEST PEOPLE” is YOU, the educated customer.

• The “BEST CARS” are the 3 best brands available, TOYOTA, HONDA, AND NISSAN.

• The “BEST WAY POSSIBLE” is through LEASING.

• Today I want to talk about the last part, leasing. If I can’t convince you why leasing is the best way to drive a car, in ONE slide, you don’t need to read any further.

Page 3: You Can't Afford to Buy My Car!

FIRST, AN IMPORTANT CONCEPT: DEPRECIATION

• Let me take an analogy from home ownership to explain a concept:

• One of the benefits of buying a home is that you have the ability to capture the appreciation, if the value of the home goes up.

• But in times when the homes values are falling, does anybody want to “capture” the DEPRECIATION?

• So, if vehicles typically depreciate, why would anyone that is smart enough to lease a depreciating house, choose NOT to lease a depreciating car?

• Can I share a little more information with you now?

TYPICAL BUYER’S PHILOSOPHY

• Leasing is complicated/waste of money/somehow illegitimate

• (Really) I want to own because I understand ownership:

• Pay the negotiated price

• Drive the vehicle for a while

• (The vehicle depreciates in value)

• Trade the vehicle in for some amount

• Do it again

• Life is rarely this simple, and the simple solution is rarely the least expensive

Page 5: You Can't Afford to Buy My Car!

(SOME) DRAWBACKS OF OWNERSHIP

• You assume all the risks that come with ownership:

• You are committed to pay the whole price of the vehicle no matter what

• If you pay cash, your cash is tied up in the vehicle (CASH FLOW)

• Borrowers pay interest on the whole price of the vehicle (CASH FLOW)

• Sales tax is due up front (CASH FLOW)

• You do not know what the trade value will be (THE BIG GAMBLE)

• If you have a loan, the equity may not pay off the loan (NEGATIVE EQUITY)

• Accidents reduce the trade value, even if insurance fixes it (DIMINISHED VALUE)

• Insurance may not pay the whole loan off if the vehicle is totaled (THE GAP)

VEHICLE DEPRECIATION: DO YOU WANT ALL OF IT, OR ONLY PART OF IT?

• You can’t totally escape paying for depreciation with a vehicle, but you CAN make a smart decision about HOW MUCH of it you are willing to pay for.

• Let’s use a different term for “purchasing.” Let’s call it, “Pre-paying for 100% of the depreciation.”

• Likewise, “leasing,” is the same thing as, “Paying for PART of the depreciation.”

• When you purchase, it is as if you plan on keeping the vehicle forever, so you must pre-pay for 100% of the depreciation up front. Then, if you sell it later, you will recapture whatever depreciation is left unused.

• When you lease, you only pay for that part of the vehicle you are going to use up.

HOW AUTOMOBILE LEASING WORKS

• Instead of paying for the whole purchase price, you pay only for the portion you use. This is called the “capitalized cost.” You also agree to drive the car for a certain time.

• You only pay interest on the capitalized cost. (This is a big deal!)

• You only pay sales tax on the lease payment each month, not on the entire purchase price, and not up front.

• The guaranteed repurchase value at the end of the lease is fixed by the factory. This is called the “residual.” The vehicle will never be worth less than the residual.

• You have three options at the end of the lease: Turn it in if there is no equity, or either trade it in or buy it outright if there is equity in the vehicle.
