The dealers don't make any more on a lease, actually it's the opposite. The vehicle is being leased by the bank, and the bank gets the car back. The bank is taking the risk that they will get back a clean car, and they are calculating what the resale value will be 3 years from now. If the resale value is lower on a clean car they lose, if the car is beat up, they will lose, if they calculate the residual too low, no one will lease and they lose.

You can't say leasing is no good. It's different on every car, and different to every customer. The Z doesn't have a great lease, but you can't just say leasing is no good, it just may not seem good to you.
