    I have been debating purchasing my 2013 Persona and with the lease expiring last week, I took the plunge and bought it. I think the residual was $2-3k under market and the car only has 22500 miles and I really like the black cherry pearl paint job which makes this car somewhat unique. I'm happy with my "new" car!

    Congrats on your decision. That color is my favorite.

    I tried a couple of times to negotiate the buyout/residual price but Toyota Financial does not negotiate. I'm still good with the deal I got.
