Are You Buying Or Leasing The Stinger?

[Melissa Rothburg]

It sounds to me like leasing might be the way to go. At least according to what they're saying in this article.

The Stinger will compete in a lease-intensive swath of luxury sedans, so it will be incumbent on Kia Motors Financial to set up a robust lease deal to lure in conquests

I saw a few people mention they like driving cars that are unique to the road. Well, I think that's what you're going to have.

Here's a link to the article I'm referring to (below).

Buying makes the most sense to me. I usually like to own cars long term and I drive way too much to be constrained by lease mileage. Even if this wasn't the case though, the only time you really win with a lease is if the leasing company underestimates the depreciation. This is a decent possibility with new models, especially if they are plagued with reliability issues (e.g. Infiniti Q50).

That said, if Kia comes out of the gate with some really aggressive offers to lure in buyers I'll probably bite, though I don't really expect this to happen.

i'll probably be buying mine as well. i have a feeling i'll be keeping this car for a long time (once i get it). i would lease if i thought i'd want to give it up in a year or two.
