Along with the endurance of Infiniti on the list, German vehicles continue 
to hold their appeal. With their reputation for quality, eleven cars on 
the two lists are from German manufacturers. American manufacturers hold 
only one place on the list with the Chevrolet Corvette. 

"Leasing is a smart choice for consumers interested in high-end vehicles," 
comments Tarry Shebesta, president and owner of ACS. "Since lease payments 
tend to be lower than traditional financing, a consumer invests less 
during the term of the lease. Leasing for a shorter term can eliminate the 
negative equity problems that longer term traditional financing can result 
in." 

LeaseCompare.com, as the name suggests, provides a tool to instantly 
evaluate leasing options from a number of sources. Customers can lock in 
the lease quote they like and apply for credit online. ACS, facilitator 
for LeaseCompare.com, executes the leases that customers choose from 
LeaseCompare.
