Exclamation Help about Leasing/Financing

I have a few question about leasing a car.

Firstly i am an international student (not US citizen or have green card), originally from Taiwan. Have no family members in the US either.

Full-time student with no job, income comes from the parents (3000/month).

I have SSN but have limited credit history since I have been only 2 years in the US. Paid my bills, and credit cards on time.

Can i still be eligible for a lease or maybe even finance?

Thanks guys!

Your best bet would be to just go to the dealer or bank and ask.

visit a dealer, find out if that's possible. Then come back with what they offer you...don't take whatever they offer you on the spot.

3k/month is a lot for you man, your parent must be rockhin high back home.

international from taiwan, a lot of times parents are pretty loaded of course also depends if that 3k is just for living expense or tuition too

either way, agree, just go and ask them. i know credit is tightened up a bit now at dealerships, but at the same time they are hurting for sales
