Tips on Buying Cars: short term lease, short term lease, nissan sentra


Question
I was laid off from a sales jobs that provided me a company car.  I have to turn the car in in two weeks.  I plan to get a similar job in the next few months that would most likely provide a car.  What is the best (most economical) way to get a car for a few months until I can secure another job?  Purchase, lease, etc.
Thank you for your help.

Answer
Jerry,

There is not a short term lease (that short) to provide what you are trying to accomplish.  You can find a very inexpensive car that is new and lease it for 24 to 48 months, and your payment could be somewhere in the neighborhood of $200 if you go with their incentive lease specials.  Cars to look at would be the Mazda 3, Toyota Corolla, Nissan Sentra.

Hope this helps.

Thanks - JB
