Automotive searches on leases have increased again in the last month, according to Swapalease.com. The Web site reports searches for two GMC models nearly tripled since February.
Although BMW dominates the list for the third consecutive month this year -- maintaining half of the top searches for the month of March -- the bigger story is the increase in buyer searches for larger, domestic vehicles, Swapalease states.
The GMC Acadia moved ahead of the BMW 5 Series and the GMC Sierra jumped up ahead of the BMW X5 and 7 Series models, respectively.
The top 10 searches are:
1. BMW 3 Series
2. Mercedes-Benz E Class
3. GMC Acadia
4. BMW 5 Series
5. GMC Sierra C/K 1500 Pickup
6. BMW X5 Series
7. BMW 7 Series
8. Cadillac Escalade
9. BMW 6 Series
10. Mercedes-Benz S Class
Consumers are now more than ever looking for ways to cut back on monthly expenses and often their housing or car payments are the first places they look to do so. By exiting their lease early through a lease transfer, cash-strapped consumers are able to walk away with no penalties and protect their credit.
"Lease transfers have long been popular, but the recession has created even more of a reason to use our site to find someone to take over your lease or to find a great deal on an in-process lease," says Scot Hall, EVP of Operations. "Our process is a win-win-win situation for the lease sellers, buyers and banks because everyone walks away saving money and protecting their bottom line."
