02 or 03 Aero? Early lease returns? Posted by Rob [Email] (#1828) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Rob) on Sat, 10 Jul 2004 09:35:02 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Hello all,
I have a 2001 Linear with the 185 hp engine and a winter package or something. The HK stereo is amazing. I have about 52k miles on it and my lease is up next April. My residual will be $14,900 or so.
My dealer told me to expect a letter in a few months offering to terminate the lease early if I buy another SAAB. I'm thinking of a couple of options:
1. Just buy out the 9-5 I have and keep driving. Unfortunately, I really want more power and the better handling of an 02+. Also, I don't know whether $14,900 will be a good deal for a 2001 Linear with 62k miles on it.
2. Drop off the 01 early if I get a letter and lease something else on a 24 month lease. Maybe even a 93 aero? I don't want to spend $40k.
3. Turn in the 01 and buy an 02 or 03 9-5 aero. I would like to spend $20-25k.
What should I do? Are there many differences between the 02 and the 03 Aeros? What are they?
Thanks for your advice.
Rob
