I'm looking at leasing through an independent leasing company here in town rather than through Mazda's own plan - the money factor is far lower (.00144 vs .00325) and the residuals look like being a couple of points lower than Mazda's. The upshot will be a lower monthly payment and a lower buyout figure at the end of the lease, should I decide to go that route.

 

Who was the company and do they do business in Houston?

 

Second that, I want to know too!

 

And do they offer leases OUTSIDE of Texas?

 

Apple Leasing here in Austin - (512) 346 9977. They deal outside of Austin, but I don't know about outside of Texas. Ask for Jason and tell him that Jon Etkins referred you.

 

How did you come about getting info about them?

Are there lease dealers in the phone book or something? I am looking around for the best rate!
