Confused on whether to buy or lease a car? Each one offer you merits and 
demerits. So, based on the benefits and your budget, you can decide what to 
do. See what are all benefits and drawbacks that you get, if you buy a car or if 
you lease a car.
Advantages of leasing a car
If you lease a car, your down payment will be low or not-at-all when 
compared to the loan payments when you buy a new car. You can only pay 
for the use of the car for a particular period of time.
There will be a chance for you to change the car for every few years, based on 
your needs and budget. You will have a chance to choose the car equipped 
with latest technology and features which you can’t buy.
You can pay the sales tax only for the portion of the vehicle you made the 
finance.
Disadvantages of leasing a car
The car will not belongs to you permanently and will be with you only for a 
limited period of time. Also, you need to return to the leasing company once 
the contract is closed.
If you exceed the mileage limit or if the car is not maintained properly or if 
you make any damage to the car before you return it to the leasing company, 
you need to pay additional costs to the company.
Some companies will not have GAP insurance to their vehicles, which will 
make a lot from your pocket, if you unknowingly lease it.
You need to make the payments until the end of the lease period, which can 
be burden sometimes; and for some companies, if you want to terminate the 
contract, you may have to pay the termination penalty also.
Advantages of buying a car
You can have your own car with no limits in the mileage or anything.
You can customize your vehicle as your wish, add whatever you want like 
gadgets, safety equipment, if your vehicle supports.
You can use it for years, until you feel you need to resale it or sell it anytime.
Insurance limits or policy will be lower, if you buy a car compared to leasing.
Disadvantages of buying a car
Higher monthly payments for the loan in the form of initial down payments 
will be high depending on the vendor when you purchase the car.
Unexpected costs from your pocket, if your warranty expires or if there is a 
big repair for the vehicle.
