Leasing a car is a matter of preference as someone mentioned earlier. Also depends on what you want out of it at the end.
The high end cars, of course, cost a lot to lease. A new Merck or Audi can run about $600. A new Beemer (depending on the class), can run the same. The car I really like costs almost $1,000 to lease, t'would be silly to lease since Dutty only buy one book. I can't afford it.
Different dealers offer different deals on purchasing and leasing. You need to do your homework. Our Subaru dealer never even looked at the cars we brought back. One had a little scratch where my daughter and her bike got too close. It wasn't deep of course. They raised no issues at all.
I've heard other leasors go over the car with a magnifying glass and charge you out the wazoo if it has even the suspicion of a nick.
We also built a relationship with the Subaru place and have leased from them for years. It was their leasing stance that encouraged us in the first place. We've just leased a VW CC for the mister (now THAT is a man's car - nuff testosterone) but I can't tell you what that dealer may do. At the end of that lease I may come back in here with my dress over my head bawling for murder, who knows.
Having a prior relationship is a good thing though.
