2014 Corvette Lease
#61
Also, remember that aside from the interest, what you're paying for in a lease is the depreciation the car undergoes. It's not unreasonable for a 52k car and 72k car to depreciate at about the same rate during the first few years.

The reason why there are other more expensive cars with similar residuals out there that can be leased for less is exactly that - the rate. Well, rebates too... Most advertised lease specials have incentivized rates. C7 does not. And it probably won't have one for as long as the demand is greater than supply.
Still, if someone plans on driving the car a few thousand miles a year and possibly getting into an upcoming, say, Grand Sport, and does not want to deal with trading... Well, it may be worth it. Turn one in and get another one... The payment may not necessarily be lower but there is less risk. To some people that is worth it.
I hope this helps. And again, please keep in mind the examples I used are for comparison purposes only. We have delivered a few C7's and only one was a base car...
