opinions please, does this seem like a decent deal?

ok so i right now own a 2010 tacoma which is my baby, but i drive alot for a living so i'm looking into getting a smaller fuel efficient vehicle for my work job...currently i'm driving around a crappy 94 prizm, but i'm looking for something safer, so i started looking at the corolla....i was actually in the market for a used vehicle, but having no luck getting anyone to finance me...long story short i went back to the one toyota dealership that seems to always come through for me...anyways they claim they can get me into a 2010 corolla s lease for 250/month for 36 months with a 1% interest rate....do you guys think that's a good deal? i mean i've leased vehicles before, but i'm concerned with having another brand new car instead of a beater car for work....i'm really looking for something safe since i spend 70% in a car and the 2010 corollas are sweet as hell so do you think it's a good/fair deal? thanks guys

So pretty much ull b paying 9k to use the corolla for 3 yrs seems kinda high...ive been looking around on the market u can get a used 2009/2010 corolla s with under 40k miles for asking 13k. But take a look at this page, it has what people been paying for their 10th gen corolla: Can you please tell me how much you paid 4 your "NEW" Corolla 2009/2010 out the Door

I myself will never lease a car, but you are the only one that knows if it makes sense or not.

Do you happen to known what the residual value at the 3 year term will be - that will help to tell if it is worth it.

Ditto!

Add me to the no lease list as well!

you can get a better deal than that. i lease my 2010 corolla s for 195 a month with 15,000 miles a year. only 1,000 down.

Sorry guys my email doesn't alert me anymore that I have responses. Um I believe buyout is somewhere around 10,500. I talked them into the s with the sunroof package and no money down now. To me that's a better deal but for someone like me I have crappy credit but perfect credit with Toyota financial. I do plan on buying at the end of the lease. Either that or buying it earlier once I get a few debts paid off if i can. I'm not sure if Toyota will even accept it. I'll find out for sure tomorrow.
