For me, it saved over $77 per payment which equates to a 9.4% annualized after tax return. Also, you get the free "put" at the end of the lease to hand the car back if it turns out to be a lemon.
The only downside is what Tourbillion mentioned - you give up some flexibility to get rid of the car before the lease ends.
