Did you even read what I wrote? I specifically said that unless you plan to own car for more then 7 years...

Also for the disadvantages you listed were adressed in my three reasons you should buy. Accept the insurance part which applies to both buy and lease. they will short change you for your vehicle weather you buy or lease so I don't see how thats really a disadvantage?
See I didn't care about how long the average person keeps a car. I for one am keeping this car forever, so the idea of leasing and then buying is financially irresponsible in my book. But yes, if the OP only wants to keep his ZL1 (the fastest camaro in Chevy history) for 3 years then I can understand leasing one. That being said, good luck trying to find a dealer willing to lease you one.
