Question some questions about picking up my car (lease)

hi all! I am new. This site is really helpful!!! thanx!

I am about to pick up my car. I have some questions:
1) I am getting .00245 for MF for 15K 4 years at 52% w/ MBCC. does paying taxes upfront or by month make a difference to the money factor?


2) is there anything I should pay attention to when I pick up the car/sign lease?

Money is a personal decision so I can't comment.

The dealer should go over the car with you prior to you driving off the lot. Many posts indicate that it is a thorough review. However, as long as you have questions, keep the person there. If needed, bring a list of questions with you. In general, make sure everything works.

Make sure the paint, especially, is defect free. It's hard to prove it was bad once you've had the car for a few days. Check low on the bumpers.

Most of all, have fun!

Go to a bookstore and look for books a buying new cars. They should include detailed checklists for the delivery procedure and inspection.
