Consumers Can Choose a Lease Payment and See What Matches - Low Resale Cars Cost More To Lease

CINCINNATI--June 9, 2004--Automobile Consumer Services, Inc. (ACS), the leader in online, direct-to-consumer auto leasing, has added a new service to its popular www.LeaseCompare.com website. Visitors can enter a monthly payment range and instantly see a list of new vehicles they can lease for that payment.

For example, here is a list of ten 2004 model sedans that can be leased with a payment in the range of $400-500 per month for 48 months:

Monthly   Purchase   End of
Payment   Price(a)   Lease Value   Vehicle
===========================================================
$429      $31,155    $15,802       Lexus ES 330
$431      $28,347    $12,342       Volkswagen Passat GLX
$432      $32,215    $16,920       Infiniti G35
$439      $29,972    $13,846       Nissan Maxima 3.5 SL
$442      $26,403    $ 9,403       Pontiac Grand Prix GTP
$455      $31,829    $15,270       Acura 3.2 TL
$461      $24,522    $ 6,113       Ford Taurus SEL
$469      $30,785    $13,238       Chrysler 300 Limited
$485      $34,356    $16,718       BMW 325i
$494      $33,773    $15,545       Mercedes Benz C230

(a) Note: Purchase price is based on Edmunds.com True Market Values
for a typically equipped vehicle and does not include applicable
rebates or local sales tax.

Tarry Shebesta, president of ACS, explains, "Even though the Lexus ES 330 has a purchase price that is almost $7,000 more than the Taurus, the monthly payment is $32 less. The Nissan Maxima sells for $3500 more than a Pontiac Grand Prix but the payments are within a few dollars of each other. Leasing takes into account the vehicle's Residual Value (projected market value at the end of the lease). Vehicles with a higher residual value tend to provide a lower monthly lease payment. Many people are surprised to learn that certain vehicles can be affordable when leased."

By changing the payment range, term, credit score, miles per year and down payment, a new list of vehicles instantly becomes available. This tool saves the consumer a great deal of time shopping and is perfect for those on a monthly budget.

This new "Compare by Payments" option can be found on the www.LeaseCompare.com home page. Those interested in using this new service should note that quotes provided are real lease payments. A customer selects a vehicle from the list and applies for credit. With credit approval, ACS secures the vehicle for the selected payment, prepares the paperwork and arranges for delivery.
