A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Why do lease payments vary so much between brands?
Two main factors cause variation: residual value and manufacturer incentives. Brands with strong resale values (like Toyota, Honda, and some luxury makes) tend to have higher residuals, which means lower monthly payments. Brands that depreciate faster have lower residuals, which increases the monthly cost. Manufacturer lease incentives (subsidized money factors, loyalty bonuses, conquest offers) can dramatically change the payment on specific models during promotional periods.

Our experience with Vantage was extraordinary. Unexpectedly we found ourselves in a panic when our car just stopped and it was clear to us that we needed a new car! Our son recommended Mark Viegas and from start to finish, each step was seamless. Every person we encountered was professional , knowledgeable and excellent at their job. We were able to sell our original car and purchase a new car without any stress. We highly recommend Vantage Auto Group, Many Thanks for making this experience such a positive one Brad was also a pleasure to work with making sure the delivery was seamless

Great customer service! Dave was very responsive and worked hard to find the car we were looking for. His pricing was unbeatable and the vehicle was delivered right to our driveway. There was a small issue with the vehicle from the manufacturer, but Dave and his team have been working hard to rectify it. Goes to show their service doesn’t disappear after delivery, and are committed to developing relationships and making longterm customers.

Working with Vantage was an awesome experience. They walked me through every step and made me feel like their top priority! They even returned my EZpass device that I had mistakenly left in my trade-in. I didn’t even know this industry existed prior to working with them, but I will never walk into a dealership to buy a car again, thanks to the amazing service Vantage provided. Highly recommend!
