don't buy luxury brands. lease instead, you can get a GLC or X3 for around $400 per month (lease) for 3 years. look for demo cars or loaners, they will lease lot less.

it has down payment of around 5000$ ado bokka 

so add extra $150 per month so it’s around $550 per month to lease 

insurance, gas, Registration fees elaago thappavu...add another 150

so total $700 per month

who told you that? You need to do a lot of research for leasing. I leased a GLC for $400 and helped friends to lease luxury brands for way less than $500 with zero down. if you dont have time to research, hire a broker and pay him $400-$500. 

The common lease rule is monthly payment should be less than 1% of MSRP (all taxes, fees included) with zero down. That means,, a $45k vehicle monthly lease payment should be less than $450 per month with 0 down.

Q5 is totally different segment than X5. X5 is bigger with more power.

Depends on which state you are in for taxes and how many miles the lease is for.

Also, the final price depends on loyalty discount or competitor discount, corporate discount, additional options like AWD, moonroof, safety packages etc.

0 Down ante, you may still have to pay upto $1500 for other charges like registration, doc fee etc.

Loaners with 4k-5k miles lease theeskovachu, but they usually are not available in the colors/options that we want. Baaga research chesthe 350$ per month ki kooda ravochu avi.

Ee lease lo the customer should negotiate on multiple parameters:
1. Total Car Cost - Just like regular purchase of the car

2. Residual value after 3 years

3. Number of miles per year

4. Money Factor - Interest 

Number of miles per year 7500 aithe, your lease will cost less. If it is 12000 or 15000, lease cost will be more. 

After you bargain on all of these, the finance manager will force you to take some useless maintenance package for another $2000 to $2500. 

Benz ki oil changes are not free. BMW ki oil changes free for 4 years.

3 yrs lopu brakes arigipothe, you have to replace them. That would cost around $1500. Big Dents and Scratches unte fix chesi ivvali. New tires tho return ivvali - atleast $800.

Leasing has its own problems. Monthly payment is not the only expense. Do full research before buying.

Unless it is on your bucketlist to drive a bmw or benz, luxury cars are not worth the headache.

Good post but lot of your assumptions are wrong. Like you can roll in everything in to monthly payment even registration and doc fees.

Don't need to change oil at benz dealership, you can go to galli shop and keep receipts.

Dents and scratches - do you drive a car with dents and scratches even if you buy it? Doesn't matter lease or buy, you fix it if the car is worth$45k 

2 year leases are best. No worry about tires  or brakes.

Overall lease is lot better if you are a car enthusiast and if you want to buy, then go for CPO.

I am glad toyota is starting to modernize 4runner. TSS is default finally but the infotainment needs a major update. It doesn't have blind spot monitor too.

noone can tell you which model to buy, if you are investing $45k+, take a weekend and test drive all the models you mentioned. then lease/buy which ever you like best. People here suggest basing on their requirements not yours, I drive a wrangler and love it, most ppl hate it. so, it depends

since you bought it you are loving aah or vice versa
