Leasing a $74k MSRP car with a 8% discount from MSRP and $3k down you are paying $1040 tax in using Feb/March numbers. That gives you a total of $36,366 + a buy out of $43,660 for a total of $80,026 over 3 years excluding disposition fee of $395.

If you buy it with a 8% discount, $3k down over 36 months is equal to $75,799.
LOL - never mind. If it makes you feel better just make up any scenario to fit your flawed logic. Your original statement is absolutely correct - "It is never cheaper to lease + buyout than to buy outright."
Don't get mad because I'm right
