I have a question....I'm going again to look at an H3 tomorrow and possibly purchase. This is the deal the dealership offered me:
Trade in for my Element: $13,000
I owe $14,800 on the Element...
$600 down and a lease for $426/month for 39 months w/10k mi. per year.

Those figures are for a Black Base model. AND I have GMS. Am I the only one who thinks that $426/mo. is still high for a base model with GMS discount? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I can't even guess about the value for your Element, so if you think they are treating you right on it, then you just need to get the right lease terms.

There is a calculator on gmbuypower.com that will help you compare leases, although they don't have the special low mileage lease on it. It looks like their numbers aren't too far off, especially adding in the $1800 hit on the Honda.

I suggest looking at the 2 year smart buy, the residuals are really good. Putting in some approximate numbers for your deal, the payment comes out to $421 for a 2 year with 12k miles per year. Seems a bit better than the low mileage lease.

Good luck!
