I don't know about your specific question, but in the state of 
Washington, when you trade in a financed car for a leased car, you 
get a tax credit... I don't know, it's strange but you might ask your 
dealer if there is something like that in your state where you trade 
in a financed car for a leased car if you get a tax credit.. it may 
make trading the car in more of an option instead of selling it on 
the market...
