2015 Prius C Three Moonglow - Lease takeover

If you don't find somebody to TOL you're not necessarily stuck with the car.
You might be better off selling the car at a loss and taking a smaller ding than the lease termination fees, which BTW are ???? what exactly?
You need to find out what those fees are exactly.
A $1,000 check might make this all go away, and you'll be completely whole again in just a few months.

You have a 2015 C3 in nearly showroom condition with 2k miles.
You're on the hook for 7 kilobucks worth of lease payments, not to mention insurance and maintenance, and all of the gotcha crap at the end of the lease.
A little short term pain might get you a longer term gain
Figure out what your car is worth and see what you can get for it.
Graduation come in June and people are going to have tax refund checks jingling in their back pockets pretty soon.
Gas is cheap, but so are C3s......and let's just say that the news hasn't painted a really rosy picture of the economy.

Somebody out there wants your car!



.Good Luck!

Just make sure the job thing is secure....

 

Another reason I hate leases, even if you die, the lease payments go on and your estate has to pay them!

 

False info ^^^

You can trade in a lease or sell it at anytime. Just find out your payoff (which goes down monthly) and as long as you sell it for that price, or your trade in amount covers the payoff, or you pay the difference out of pocket...you are golden.

You would only owe anything if your payoff is more than the car is worth or more than you can sell it for.

Generally speaking it is a lot easier to break even on a lease trade in if you make it at least half way into the duration of the lease. I.e. 18 months or so into a 36 month lease.

A lot of times dealerships will overvalue your trade to get you into a new vehicle, and this is how you can trade in your lease early on not be on the hook for the remaining payments.


I've done it plenty of times.

 

Just call the leasing company or log into the website where you make your payments and find out your payoff. It's that simple. If your lease is with TFS then it's simply takes a few clicks and you will have your answer....


Then for reference look up KBB, black book, auto trader or even swing by the dealership and see what they would give you for it (obviously a lot less than selling privately), but at least you would now have a solid idea where you stand.

 

Understood.

Your offer in your first post seems very fair and a great deal to someone that wants to take over your lease.

Best of luck.

 

Lot of luck !!!
