Ok here my issue i want to purchase a touring sport 370 with Nav and I think the price i was given was pretty good BUT money is tight right now but i dont want to miss out so I wanted to know if I could....... order it as a lease to get a lower monthly for now less down then finance when my lease is over and my money should be good by the end of a 24 or 29 or even a 36 month lease. Or the second option is to wait until the end of the year when 2010 models are in and they are trying to move the 09's but with that option the flaw is dealers rarely have touring sport 6sp with Nav on the lot so I would really have to be lucky to get it then. Your adviced is greatly appreciated.

As with anything you purchase, you must also factor in the cost of ownership. After purchasing the vehicle would you also have enough cash flow to maintain it and still be able to pay your bills.
not enough info given .. leasing then purchasing the lease, 9 out of 10 times, is a terrible deal, the car has depreciated more then the remainder of the balance.. and they are not likely to work with you on the cost to purchase it.
06' totaled (RiP).........well let me be a little more open rt now I could get the 09 touring sport equipped nicely at 37,279 otd so it sounds good dont want to miss that deal, i understand be patient but wating around resulted in me missing my chance to get right back into the 350 that i wanted and resulted in settleing for a fully equipped altima coupe and to me that car isnt even close to substituing for a Z but the extra space is nice. So i dont want to run the same route again so any idea's or am i stuck waiting this one out becuz a money right now

I do not buy cars unless I have cash to pay for it. So the idea of driving a car on someone else’s money is not for me.

ha ha ha. I had a repo years ago. Could not borrow money for a car for 7 years. No credit card for 7 years. Looking back it was a blessing in disguise. Forced to operate on a cash budget. The habit stuck with me.
if money is tight, wait. its a car, it'll be available next year and it'll be available next next year.

^ +1 on both of these.
I would add that if you wait a couple years until you're in a more stable financial situation, you can buy the same car used and not take that huge intial depreciation hit.
