Buy vs Lease near Cibolo, TX

Buy vs Lease near Cibolo, TX

The age old question of choosing whether to buy or lease a vehicle can be a confusing decision to make without the facts. That’s why our team at World Car Kia North have put together this overview to explain the benefits of each option. As a result, you can find the one that works best for you!

Buying

If you’re someone who likes to have a vehicle for a long time period, then the route of buying will work for you. With this avenue, you’ll take the Kia model home and start a payment plan for the sticker price. These usually take around four to seven years to fully pay off, but they’re a worthy endeavor if you’re looking for a good investment. Plus, once the auto is reimbursed completely, you’ll be able to add on features that you may wish to have on your next trip down to Crescent Bend Nature Park. You can even spruce up the paint finish, if you so wish. Buying also allows you the choice between a used or new vehicle, which can save you money if you pick the former. 

Leasing

Owning a set of wheels for the long-term isn’t always the right decision for every motorists in Cibolo. That’s why we want to go over the prospect of leasing your next new Kia model. These contracts are only usable with factory-fresh autos, so you won’t be able to cut costs with a pre-owned version. However, since you’re only paying off the expected depreciation value instead of the full sticker price, you’ll save some funds that way. These contracts have a lifespan of around two to four years, which can be ideal for those who enjoy staying on top of automotive advancements, as you are able to simply lease out the next new ride. When the agreement ends, you can close the contract out, lease a newer edition, or purchase the model! 

Which Option is Right for You?

There is no firm way to say which avenue would be best for you, as it’s a decision that should be made by taking your circumstances into account. For example, if you’re planning to make several trips across Texas and beyond, buying may be the right choice. This is because you won’t be held down with a mileage limit as you would with leasing. If you just plan on sticking to cruises down Cibolo Valley Drive, then the second route may be more beneficial. Also, be sure to take your living situation into consideration. Are you planning a move in upcoming years? If so, leasing would be good, since the agreements aren’t full commitments so you can pack up and move on with no resistance. If you’re having trouble deciding, our finance center is readily available to go over your options.

I hope this message gets to the right place. I would like to tell you about my experience with your service department. I received a letter from Kia USA about an update to my 2015 Kia. I decided to take it to your dealership because its near my home. Walking into the service department I was greeted by one of your associates and immediately felt great about stopping in. My service advisor was Lindsey Lewis. I can't say enough about her professionalism and manner. She really is a gem and I hope you appreciate her. If all your associates conduct themselves like her you are going to be very successful. Let me assure you that by this one person going above and beyond all my future car purchases will be with your location. I would like to thank you again and please tell Lindsey she made my day much brighter. Lauren R.

Yesterday, June 29; 2018; my mother took in her car to get serviced at Mazda KIA North 12115 IH 35 North in San Antonio. The service we received was amazing, but this is not the reason I am writing. The young lady that helped us is the reason I am writing. Unfortunately we did not get her name but the way she treated us was, for lack of finding the just words....Angelic!!! She made us feel so welcome, at ease and as a part of a family. This meant the world to me because I value and treasure my family. As as a school teacher, my time is very consumed with tasks all year round and I often worry about my elderly mother & brother. She is on a fixed income (Social Security Check) & my brother is a recent cancer survivor. If this was not enough, we recently had a death in the family, so you can say we were having a rough week. The young lady was very caring and very helpful. We just wanted to let Management know about the magnificent job this young lady is doing. Please let her and her supervisors know about the great job she is doing.

I purchased my Kia from another dealership out of state. I was having issues with my A/C and tried to get them to check it out. Called on the phone explaining the issues. They asked me to bring the car in. They checked it and said it would be about 4 hours. They supplied a shuttle to my work and even provided a shuttle 4 hours later from my job back to pick my vehicle up! They fixed everything free of cost!!! I cant truly say how happy i was with the entire experience and service provided. If they happen to read this, huge shout out to Ms. Jonny with the service department, you were extremely courteous and helpful.

We had a great experience a WC Kia. We came in with our eyes on the Sorrento and a goal in mind on our monthly payment. Our salesman, TC, found us exactly what we were looking for. He even gave us a call a few weeks later to check up on us to see how we were doing with our new ride. Thanks TC, when we finally move on to the minivan we will give you a call.

They have always been so helpful and the only dealership I have not been taken advantage of once, in fact I really feel like they actually do care about me and my car, genuinely concerned and have gone above and beyond for me!! Lindsey in the service department is a top notch employee, the best of the best. This dealership and service department is fortunate to have such an outstanding lady working for them as well as the customers she assists. Thanks for being so helpful and honest and not being like so many others that take advantage of people. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Buying a KIA from World Car (formally Legend) has been a great experience. I mainly use their service center now but you can bet I'm buying another vehicle from them. To the young lady at service checkin, keep up the great work!

For starters, I was a first time car buyer, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Tony was extremely patient and helpful, and I never felt like I was getting the 'run around'. I intended to purchase a used mazda, but at the end of the day I ended up with a brand new Kia! (That was my choice, no pressuring from Tony at all) Tony spent time looking for used cars within my price range, honestly trying to find something that would work. Kia wasn't on my radar, but when my Dad brought it up, and we started talking about it, Tony was able to assist us with that purchase, even taking us over to the Kia office (Really in the same parking lot) to finish. All in all, I have no regrets, and I happily recommend you go talk to Tony if you're looking to purchase a car.
