Maybe I misunderstand but my dealer told me there was a ~5K rebate on leased cars to make up for part of the $7500 credit.
But in CA there is a $7500 federal credit and, I think, a $2500 state credit. So even without considering lease rates, isn't it a no-brainer to buy since buying gets you a $10K credit?
