Today, I got a letter from Subaru, Happy Anniversary! it said. 2 years since I leased that car, wow, where did the two years go, has it been this long…
Not only did they wish me a Happy Anniversary, but… if you like, you can call us and see if you want to bring it in early, and look at going into a new lease, perhaps a 2011.
Tempting don’t you think? Especially since I had my share of trouble with this car, and the last two years have had some not so happy moments.
So here are my options I guess.
1) Go in and trade it, VERY tempting since my last incident, I have not driven this car fast at all, I am just afraid, and frankly, if I am gonna drive that car just like driving my old Toyota, then what is the point, might as well
2) Wait another 12 month, and show up to the dealership and drop it off and say, thank you Subaru, its been fun knowing you, never again, at which point they will discover every scratch possible and want me to pay for it.
3) Wait 9 month, show up to some other dealership negotiate a deal and say, sorry cant buy today, I still have 3 month left on my car, at which point, they will say, oh don’t worry we will take the lease off your hands
4) Buy it out and keep it (frankly that is just not gonna happen, i can’t believe I wrote that)
5) Buy it out, and sell it, but what is the point and I will feel bad
What to do, what to do?
