Car Leasing in the U.S. without a U.S credit score

Postby expatinus » Sun Jun 21, 2009 5:51 pm

We just arrived to the U.S. and I am interested in leasing a used car for a 24-36 months period. I do not have U.S. credit score or a U.S. driver's license yet.

I have found the following expat leasing company http://www.ExpatRide.com it seems like they can do both new and used vehicles and all makes and models at around 5.0% interest rate.

For auto insurance I found AIG's inbound program http://www.aig-is.com/

Do you know these companies and their services?

It looks like my best options, but please share in links, experiences, tips & tricks as I am a bit lost on what to do.

Cheers,

I researched a lot since I posted the question above, and I finally chose to go with http://www.ExpatRide.com

They were very helpful, and I guess the company is founded by expats, so they were easy to talk to. Kristina helped me (she's originally from Sweden), and she was very responsive. So if you have the chance, ask for her.

We leased a used Mercedes RL (2009 model). We gave ExpatRide the specifications on the vehicle that we wanted, and they located it and negotiated a good price for us. So we didn't have to deal with the dealership before we picked up the car.

The auto insurance we got through AIG. No problem at all.
