In USA...
36 month 10K mile lease = 7.5K + 1K*36 = 43.6K
New car price = 72K
9 year ownership cost:
Lease = 43.6K*3 = 130.8K
Purchase (with depreciation) = 72K * 70% = 50.4K
Lexus is very reliable. So, the repair cost is almost ZERO within 10 years!!!
PS: Even though your car is an unreliable European car, the purchase option is still much better!!!
