***Please be specific. List any "extras" you choose to add to your car under "OPTIONAL PACKAGES AND EXTRAS". Also if anything you choose does not come standard with the vehicle please list how much you are being charged extra for that item/choice in the "Additional Cost" column.

NOTE: You will use the same information that you gathered about the "New Car" for the "Leased Car" as well. This will allow you to compare the difference in price between buying a car and leasing the same car.

Step 2: After you have researched your car, go to "INSURANCE QUOTES" tab at the left and follow the given directions to calculate an insurance quote for all 3 cars.

Step 3: After you get your insurance quote, go to "FINANCING AND LEASING" tab at the left and follow the given directions to calculate your lease risidual as well as some other needed finance information.

Step 4: Print out the project packet.

Step 5: Use all of the information you collected to neatly complete the charts provided, perform some calculations and answer any additional questions shown.

Step 6: Staple all of the pages together and return to me by the designated due date to be evaluated.
