I placed an order for a new Macan S on Thursday at PCO with an expected delivery date of June and learned yesterday that the new Macans might be delayed until November. Are there any sources for a short term lease that I could use until the car comes in?

lease busters

Thanks guys...i’ll Look into that.

I’ve probably assumed at least 8 to 10 leases off leasebusters. Often you’re just looking at taking over somebody else’s problems as many leases are way over on mileage and the car hasn’t been well maintained. Most leases are well under water unless they come with a huge down payment as mentioned and or cash incentive. Watch for the lease transfer fee and overall condition as you’re now responsible for the car once you assume the lease. The closer you can get the residual value to wholesale value the better the deal. There are some legitimate gems out there but you have to look and be quick on the trigger!

Thanks guys. This delay has really put me in a jam. My only fear with assuming a lease is all of the crap they try and hit you with at lease end like damage, excessive wear, tires etc.

I totally agree, it's a lot of work weeding through the crap on Leasbusters to find a good one that's not underwater by too much. If the current leasee purchased wear and tear protection that's helpful. Having said that I've found and assumed a few gems that were under mileage, had good deposits and or cash incentives.

Depends on what I am leasing. Fair market for whatever it is, I guess...

You could be right! Heading to the auto show today to look at options and see if I can get more info.

Delay until November confirmed today. Decided to cancel the Macan as I don’t want to get a new car during the Winter. Not sure what I will get now?

Just curious what the difference of assuming delivery of the car in summer and then driving it in the winter anyways....vs. taking delivery in the winter.

You are going to be driving in the winter anyways.....doesn’t make logical sense.
If you are worried about chips and dings, those would happen regardless in the winter (risk is the same) if you took delivery in summer vs. winter. So the thought is to go away from what I assume is your preference (Macan) to something else because you don’t want a new car in winter seems odd to me.

Now if you were not planning to drive at all in the winter that is a different conversation, but I don’t know anybody that winter stores their Macan.....on that note I drive my 911 year round as well.
