Crap cars are at auction at this point. They are not lease returns anymore, they are unwanted dealer junk. Oh, and what the hell is OOF auctions?

I was about to reply in regards to some of your comments, but remembered this is the internet and thus you trying to poke me and talk money to a complete stranger is funny.

And posting only partial info to make yourself right is well "interesting" , but again it is the internet and having to flex some virtual muscle and or intellect is also.., well not a surprise.

12/22/11 NEVADA Lease $25,750 53,455 Avg OBS BLK 8G A Yes
Ya not one since October, oh oops.

But yes, neither of the wagons are reported as leases.

$25,750 + auction fee + profit + might need some minor work so selling for $30k is normal for a car reseller dealer.

You'd have to keep it for 20 years and not put any miles on it to make sense of it as an investment.

These cars are best used often and driven well IMO. The 72' 280 Coupe or Cab is a better 'investment' idea. No?

Great time buy cars tho...most EVERYTHING is dropping in price.
