Default Lease Question

I know when you are trading in a car to buy another one at a dealer, you get a tax break and only have to pay tax on the value of the car that ISN'T covered by the trade.

Now if you trade in a car and start a lease, is there any discount on the taxes?

Im trading in my 2003 A4 that I own and is worth 17K, and getting a new A4 that I'm leasing... Is there anyway to not pay taxes on the leased car or pay less?? I live in NJ

Thanks!

Default You'd be crazy to trade a car that you now OWN on a lease ...

figure this, you now own a $17 ks car, if you trade it in, at the end of your lease you'll have nothing to show for. I can understand if you were buying but not leasing.
The advantage to trading a car is that you don't pay taxes as you would if you were puting a down payment.

Default Sell the car. If you haven't already realized, Audi's are riducously overpriced in this area.

Sell the car and then put the money towards the lease payments. Do not trade it into the dealer.
