No three-day return policy on new lease

Dear Terry,
Is there a three-day return policy on new leases where you can return the car to the dealer? What would be the costs?
Joe

Dear Joe,
Sorry, but the car is yours the moment you drive off the lot. You can always buy your way out of the lease, but it will cost thousands of dollars.

Here are this week’s reader questions:

Bad economy sinking luxury-car values
How can I stop a collector’s abuse?
Can I return a lease within three days?
Will paying off my loan help me?
