It’s also why it’s very important to never put any down payment on a lease as you don’t get any of that back, and also to have favourable lease terms. Like the same gti is now 750 a month whereas mine is 500 a month | How exactly, you're posting on lease busters or something?

nah just on facebook or craigslist. for this lease takeover, i didnt even post it on fecesbook because im sick of dealing with the retards on there. Im sure i would have gotten even more hits if i posted it on facebook, but i got ton of interest already.
Like i said, it sells itself. Just write something like my ad. https://vancouver.craigslist.org/rch...886926039.html |

The wing is just double sided tapped on. Easily removed with a hair dryer. But the sucker has held on for over a year with no issues.
Mods on a lease on matters if you are deciding to return it, AND the value of the buyout is more than the value of the market.
So for example, my buyout is 24k at the end of my 3 year lease. If during that time, the value of a GTI w/ manual is only around 18 or 20k, then the dealership will likely nickel and dime me and tell me to restore the car back to original as a way to force me to buy out the lease as they dont want it.
However, if the value of the buyout is lower than market, ie. the value of my GTI is in the 30's and the buyout is only 24, then all mods are fine. the dealership will pay you some $$$ (this is what you negotiate) and they want your car! they purchase the car at the buyout price, without having to pay the tax (not sure how they do this purchase without having to pay the tax, but they are able to do so) and then list it for a higher market value. I.e. list the GTI for 34k in 2026 and pocket almost 10k.
This is what happened with my previous sportwagen. Buyout was like 18k, they gave me 4k, and sold the car for 24k. I didnt really have mods on it, but i did tint the back windows.
Also i kept all the OEM parts so it can be restored to stock easily.

I'm fascinated by Hobz putting mods on his lease.
I thought I was a dumb fuck for putting an OEM rear wing on my Mazda 3 Turbo, silly to mod something one isn't planning to keep.
Hobz is loaded though

Keep in mind, 80% of the mods he did were from AliExpress, so there's not much to cry about when it comes to the sunk cost.

The XC90 hasnt been redesigned in 10 years, yet still looks great. They gotta move on from that complex turbo and supercharged engine but who knows what their chinese overlord Geely is planning.

Ya it's in donk.'s Past Time Car Review Thread.
He even has a Savage Geese -esque final thoughts segment: Quote:
