The $299 does require that you put down $3k (which includes your first months payment). This doesn't include your Tax, Title, License and dealer fees, but negotiating the buy price down from the MSRP should help eat up most of these costs. So that extra $5k down should lower the payment more than that.

HOWEVER, please remember this. NEVER EVER put down that kind of money on a lease. A little known fact that most people don't realize is that if you go off the lot and total your leased vehicle, your insurance company will only pay the car loan off and anything that you put down you will not get back. I.E. if your car gets totaled at any point during the lease you will never get back that extra money. I would put the extra money in a bank account and draw from it as needed to make up the difference in payments.

Not true. You still owe x amount of dollars and the car is still worth x amount of money. Insurance pays you what its worth. The insurance doesn't care who the lean holder is as its your car either way. They care when you take the check, pay off the loan, so whatever bank will give them the title. They understand this takes a few days/weeks. You get cut the check, you pay off the lender what you owe, rest is left over for you which is same as a buy.

A lease in terms of ownership is 99% the same thing, you don't own the plates because you haven't paid all your taxes yet, you only paid amount you rented the car from them. Once you buy a lease at term end, 1 month in, 12 months in, 3 years in etc, you pay tax on your residual amount and you go get new plates. It's still always your car.
