That comibined with high money factors, and its a recipe for lease-disaster.

My monthly payment on a $55k BMW is $500, on a Chevy it'd be about $750. Its a bummer, because I currently would prefer to be driving a Chevy. . .
Yeah leases on GM vehicles are horrible! I used to lease from GM for some of my past vehicles, haven't done so in quite a few years. Looked at the new Buick Envision, nothing down and out of my pocket, they wanted $600 / month! That was with mulitple discounts, including supplier pricing and some other rebates from a dealer that I have done tons of business with working directly with the sales manager who I know very well...told them no thanks, and walked out. $45k vehicle, that is insane, you can finance for close to a lease payment with GM.
