Subie lease deals: does shopping help?

[Rockin Ronnie]

Our 2000 OBW is nearing the end of it's lease. It has been an exceptional
car. Very little has gone wrong. I have replaced the tires recently and will
be under the lease mileage (currently 90,000 KLMs @ 25K per year). The car
is in excellent condition and has been well maintained.

My intention is to lease a new Subie be it either a Legacy wagon or OBW.
Without weighing the pros and cons of leasing Versus buying, does it pay to
shop around for a lease? For my current lease we simply walked in and talked
to a salesman and went from there but I would like to do things differently
this time around and look at ways of saving a little cash. The residual or
end-lease value is $17,287.40CDN.

if leasing in Canada is the same as in Australia, shop around for best
price, with ALL accessories and options you want... then go to the lease
company of your choice with your quotes, and get THEM to shop around for you
also, making sure they have the EXACT specifications you want...

out here, the leasing company I deal with got me about a 3k saving, through
sheer buying power...
