    "Despite an uncertain economy, our customers are still interested in leasing high-end vehicles," says Tarry Shebesta, President of ACS. "Particularly in the used vehicle market, we have seen strong growth in our business. Individuals are looking to find a better deal but are not willing to sacrifice vehicle comfort and performance."
    LeaseCompare.com is one of the few avenues readily available to consumers seeking to lease late model used cars because few dealers offer used vehicle leasing. The site allows consumers to explore all used car finance/lease options quickly, easily, and conveniently.
