A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

What's the most affordable car to lease in NJ for recent graduates?

Recent grads in NJ typically do best with compact sedans or hatchbacks in the $250–$320/month range. The Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Mazda3 are consistently among the most affordable leases. Look for models with high residuals and manufacturer support — those factors reduce your payment more than any negotiation tactic.

I am a 79 year old man. So by this time I have had plenty of cars and dealings with car salesmen/brokers. Vantage Auto Group is far above the rest. Their responsiveness and aim to please the customer is incredibly rare. I would recommend them to anyone interested in buying or leasing a vehicle,
