At Montclair Car Leasing, we do things very differently than do other car leasing agencies, and those differences mean savings, options, convenience, and customer service that isn’t equaled anywhere. The first big difference is one that at first sounds like a negative, but we assure you, it’s nothing but good: we don’t have a physical car lot. Instead, our lot is on the internet, in the virtual world, easily accessible by a few mouse clicks. There are a few reasons why this is such a great thing for you. First, it means we have the happiness of being able to undersell our competitors. We’re able to lease you cars at prices other car leasing services simply can’t touch. That’s because having a physical car lot costs money in terms of property costs, property taxes, utilities, insurance, payroll, etc. All of those add up to a large overhead, the costs of which are always passed down to the customer. We don’t have such costs, and when we save money, you save on leasing. Another benefit to having a virtual car lot is that it’s always exactly as big as it needs to be in order to offer you any new model car from just about any car manufacturer you can think of. Other leasing companies are limited in what they can offer because they can only fit so many cars on those old-fashioned, small but expensive car lots. But those sorts of limitations don’t apply to us, so we can offer you any new model car from makers like Acura, Audi, BMW, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Infiniti, Jaguar, Jeep, Kia, Land Rover, Lexus, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, MINI, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Porsche, Ram, Subaru, Smart, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo. And because we work directly with those car manufacturers, we eliminate any middlemen, saving you even more money! If you have any questions for us, just ring us up at 908-752-4499. Let’s talk, shall we? We’d love the opportunity to meet you and show you just how we can save you lots of money while offering you unparalleled variety, incredible convenience, and customer service you’ll love! Payment: cash, check, credit cards.
